Chat box missing when on Screen sharing

[Edwin Birot]

In Big Blue Button, when a teacher shares their screen they lose sight of the chat box feature. Therefore when they are sharing their screen, they cannot see what the students are writing, they must stop sharing to go back and check the chat periodically which ruins the flow of the lesson. Some teachers have resorted to opening the session on two devices so that they can share the screen on one and read the chat on the other.  It would be great, if the teacher could still see the chat box and student list while sharing their screen.
