Fullscreen is no longer true fullscreen

Hello, 

 

A recent update changed the fullscreen mode. I usually pin one person and make them fullscreen and they would take up the entire screen. Now, I get the controls at the bottom that stay there, so it isn't true fullscreen. I record through OBS and I would rather not crop, is there a solution to this? See before and after photos.

Agree this recent change is frustrating.  The same applies when someone shares screen.  Setting fullscreen mode isn't really fullscreen.  This is particularly annoying when having a pixel accurate view of the other persons screen is important.  Everything is squashed to make space for the toolbars.    Zoom please fix this!

It's not only the toolbar. The title bar does not go away either. I get only 75% of the screen showing the share content in "full screen" mode. Not at all full 😞

I'm seeing the same issue after installing the latest version of Zoom Workplace. Is true full screen functionality going to be restored?
