Trying to share the zoom chat window

The issue is host starts the meeting, and enters something in chat. When participant#2 joins, they dont see the chat message. And when participant#3 joins, they won't see the chat message that was typed before by the other 2 people. 

I thought of sharing the zoom chat window, but that does NOT show up in the shared window. I even tried the portion of the screen. 

So on settings of the account, I enabled "Show Zoom windows during screen share" but that didn't make any difference. 

 

Thoughts? I don't know how to solve this issue?

@edmondme From the host Zoom App (or whoever is sharing the screen), you can try to enabling "Show my Zoom Windows to other participants when I am screen sharing."

 

Settings > Share Screen
