With this mode you will be able to take the video of the users and that it always appears even if we are in another window, here is explained in detail.

Two monitors

One approach is to have dual monitors connected to your computer while screen sharing. In this scenario, you can display your classroom on one monitor and use the other display to present the content you want to share. This method helps to eliminate any infinity mirror effects and provides a full-sized view of your classroom while sharing your screen.

Two windows

If you're on the move or do not possess a secondary monitor, you can still maintain a view of your classroom while screen sharing. The main disadvantage of this method is that you will not be able to share your entire screen, as this would result in the infinity mirror effect. To overcome this, open your classroom in a standalone browser window and size it to a small portion of your screen. This way, the majority of your screen is occupied by the content you wish to share, such as a specific application window or tab.
