While sharing screen the meeting controls disappear,which makes it very difficult to host meeting because the controls are just not there. Earlier versions had this option to lock the controls while sharing screen on phone. Now in updated versions,the controls just go away. It is very frustrating.

Can there an option be provided ,a toggle button perhaps to choose for myself if I want controls to there while sharing screen too?
