Box appearing during Webinar

During a webinar there is a box of our host login that gets displayed on the screen covering the webinar content.  How do we get rid of it?  Have tried everything.

    The Host can control the view that the Attendees see, but the Panelists and Co-Hosts control their own view.

     

    My recommendation is to use the Spotlight feature, and spotlight the Panelists and/or Co-Hosts you want visible to the Attendees, and then in the Panelist window, select the Side-By-Side Speaker view for the Attendee View:


    The "Speaker" view -- Side-by-side Speaker when screen sharing, and simply Speaker when not screen sharing -- will show only Spotlighted videos if any are spotlighted; if none are spotlighted, then the Active Speaker is shown.  Side-by-side creates a vertical bar that separates the camera video from the shared screen.

     

    If you want NO camera video visible, have all Panelists, Co-Host. and the Host turn their camera video off, and select Standard for the Attendee View.  This is the only way to show only the shared content and nothing else.
