How do I expand the portion of the visible shared screen to the full size of their Amazon Chime browser or application window?
Amazon Chime displays content being shared in the Screen Share pane within the meeting window. We display the content based on the aspect ratio of what is being shared, so as not to distort the view, and add grey bars on the sides to fill the pane.
There are several ways you can manage the panes of the meeting window to maximize the screen view. Diagrams indicating the various controls are included below for the desktop clients (note we are still working on providing more controls for screen share viewing on the web app).
