gallery view with dual monitor

I'm using Zoom with dual monitors.  I want to see gallery view on the larger, external monitor but it only shows speaker view on that monitor even when I have gallery view on the laptop monitor.  There must be a way to do it.  I saw a discussion about this where someone asked the same question and no one had answers.  Just other people  who have the same problem.

Hey @kinofrad,

 

Can you please confirm what's selected on your end when you open Settings> General?

"Use dual monitors " is enabled

I don't see "allow p"op out tabs"

To display Gallery View on your external monitor while using dual monitors in Zoom, ensure that the dual monitor mode is enabled. Open Zoom, go to Settings, navigate to the General tab, and check the option for "Use dual monitors." Once in a meeting, manually select Gallery View by clicking on the View button in the top-right corner of the Zoom window. If the external monitor is still showing Speaker View, try using the "Swap Video" option to switch the views between screens. Additionally, adjusting your system’s display settings to set the external monitor as the primary display may help. If Zoom does not retain your preferences, updating to the latest version or restarting the application might resolve the issue.

Thank you so much for your reply!  I'm not able to find "swap video" anywhere.  I wonder if I don't have that option for some reason? Or maybe I would only be able to see that when I am actually using dual monitors and in a zoom meeting.  I'm trying to test it before being in that situation but maybe that's not possible?
