The Video Conference Tray (area 5 from the above diagram) is the area where every viewer can see the other viewers that are in the stream room. There are a few controls in that area to make note of:
Each video tile will have the name of the viewer as well as 2-3 buttons (depending on whether that viewer has video or screen sharing enabled). When looking at the tile that represents your viewer, you will be able to click the microphone and video buttons. Red and a slash through them means they are muted/disabled. These buttons are in sync with the audio and video mute buttons that exist in the ShowViewer tool bar (area c from the above diagram).
If video is enabled for a particular viewer in the room, a third icon will appear next to the video status button for that viewer. This button will have one of two actions depending on whether or not the viewer clicks on their own box or the box of another viewer in the room.
If the viewer clicks on the box next to the video button on their own tile, a window will pop up allowing them to use effects to blur our the background behind their face in the video that others see in the video chat.
If they click on this icon for another viewer in the room, it will make this viewer full screen. The viewer will still be able to hear other viewers that are participating in the room but will only be able to see the video feed or screen share of the viewer that is full screen. To exit full screen hit the escape key on the keyboard.
