desirecoloquialQ: I can't see other people's camera while sharing
Hola :) I am testing Kyzon Space and I have two doubts, but maybe it's just me that I can't find how to do it. When sharing the screen I can't see the cameras of my students in the meetings. It works like Google Meets, where all you see is the screen shared. Is there a way (or will there be a way) to change that and see the people you are talking to? It feels impersonal and it is hard to manage larger groups when you can't see their faces.
And my second doubt: when you LEAVE a meeting, is there a way to also FINISH it? Because I leave the meeting but the students can stay there.
Gracias <3

No it's definitely not you with the inability to see the cameras of your students while you're sharing your screen. At the moment, our share screen features work the same way as how Google Meets presents the shared screen. If you only have one screen, you will unfortunately not be able to see the other participants in the meeting when you navigate to a different tab or window as you're sharing.
This is unfortunately a browser limitation that we have been keeping an eye out for, in case Chrome, Safari or any other browsers release an update that allows us to take advantage of displaying the meeting participants as a floating grid of faces :)
When you leave a meeting, there is currently no option to 'end the session' per se to automatically remove everyone from the meeting. This was actually intentionally designed this way to show users that they themselves and their participants can rejoin the meeting link at any time without the meeting link expiring.
That being said, if the lack of option to 'end the session for everyone' becomes as a major inconvenience for you and/or others, we will definitely look into implementing the additional option to 'end the session' without expiring the permanent nature of the meeting space.
Let me know if there's anything else I can help clarify and appreciate the interest :)
That would be very helpful, actually to either end the meeting or kick out everyone :) I was hoping to use Kyzon with young learners and that feature would be probably crucial for my use case, teaching online. I did read your replies on annotation features, is there a plan to maybe limit annotations - make them available i.e. if up to 5/10 users are present? TIA.
Appreciate your feedback i.v.. on some type of 'ending the session' feature as this feature seems to provide the most value for education use cases. This is something that we will be adding in the short term.
At the moment we don't yet have plans for rolling out limited annotations unfortunately. We are still working out our implementation at this stage :)
