Recent update made things more difficult: screen sharing and breakout room tool

[cazarcon]

It seems with every update Zoom does, not much is improved. In fact, it is quite the opposite. With this recent update (literally from yesterday to today), now when I share my screen with my students, I can no longer see the students on the side panel as I could before. Has anyone found a workaround for this? I like to see the students expressions if they are on camera to see if the lesson is registering. I also like to see who is still in the class without having to click anywhere else.

One other small thing I am finding to be the opposite of an improvement is the breakout room tool. In the past, when I clicked on the breakout room box, I could stretch it out vertically so that I could see all the participant groups at once. Now I cannot do this. I did not have a picture for this attached, but I think you get the idea. 

I would greatly appreciate if anyone could inform me of any tips. Thank you in advance.
