Select the window or application you would like to share. You can share your entire screen or any other application that is open on your desktop. And then click on the Share button.
- When you share an application, others will only see that.
- When you share your entire screen, others will see your entire desktop, any applications running, notifications that pop-up, top-secret chat messages, etc.
Once the screen has been shared, it will be added as a screen share, and other members will be able to see it. Additionally, the avatar has a presenter icon added, and the Share screen icon becomes bold.
- We can have multiple users sharing screens simultaneously.
Click on the screen share window to bring it to focus.
- Once it is in focus, you will have the options to view that screen share in full-screen mode or zoom in on a certain section.
- You can also toggle between the Team and Map views.
  - If you select the Team view, it shares all available screens and cameras.
To stop sharing, click on the Stop sharing screen icon at the top right side of the window.

If you are working from a Chrome browser session, run Sococo in its own window so that you can share other browser-based apps from a separate window.
Arrange your shared application window to be side-by-side with your Sococo window so you can keep an eye on your team’s videos and maintain a personal connection while presenting. Or, utilize an external second monitor, if you have one, to display Sococo.
Avoid the Infinite Windows effect.
