Stop Zoom window minimizing when sharing

Hi guys,  

 

I run lectures from home, I have 3 monitors, I set up Zoom and Chrome Browser on half a screen each on my left, I have Power Point presenter view in the middle and the presentation on the right.  In the Zoom window I have it set up to see the participants list and Chat window.

 

I click Screen share and share the right screen (the powerpoint presentation) and instantly Zoom minimizes to the silly little floating window and I lose the chat window. I have to manually reopen the window every time I change shares to keep seeing the chat.  Is there a setting (in windows version) to disable this auto minimize on sharing?  Seached and can not find anything!

 

Cheers, Dave.
