Can't pan when viewing a shared zoomed-in screen after sharing own screen

Hi,

 

I'm using Zoom 5.17.5 (2543) on Linux kernel 6.5.0-17 (distro: Kubuntu 23.10). The problem occurs in both X11 and Wayland.  After starting Zoom, if I share the screen and then subsequently view another shared screen, I can zoom in and out, but can't pan (move around the zoomed-in shared screen). There is no response when trying to do this. This problem has been present for years as far as I know.

 

If I try panning a shared zoomed-in screen before sharing my own screen, everything works fine.

After the problem occurs, I can't get this function back until I shut down Zoom and start it again. From then on, I have this function back until I share my own screen again and then the same problem reoccurs.


The problem doesn't occur in Windows.

 

Regards.
