Hi team, Not able to switch camera when using recent zoom sdk. As per last conversation about this issue, I enabled top bar but still not able to see camera switch option. ![Screenshot 2021-04-16 at 12.12.47 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/zoomdeveloper/original/3X/8/e/8e4681d781d2c4219c3f63df43a8776999ee29ce.jpeg) . I want to hide information option from top bar if i enabled top bar. ---

Hey @helloparent, Thanks for using the dev forum! The switch camera button will not show if video is not started already. Since the simulator does not have a camera the video will not be able to start and the switch camera button will not show. Thanks! Michael ---

Hey @helloparent, Unfortunately, you can only hide the title (which is what is happening now) or hide the whole top bar. Thanks! Michael ---

Hi Micheal, If I hide the title, it shall open up on tapping which will reveal the meeting details. In our SDK, we cannot reveal the meeting details with the participants. If I hide the whole top bar, I cannot switch the camera. Please advise how to switch the camera then. ---

Hey @helloparent, You could hide the top bar, then create your own bar that would have a switch camera button. That button would call the switchMyCamera method, and the bar could be added to the meetingView after you get meetingView from the MeetingService. Beyond that, I would advise using a custom meeting UI. Michael ---

Hi Micheal Can all this be done in the default UI. ---

Hey @helloparent, Yes you would just have to handle managing the views yourself using the meetingView I mentioned above. Thanks! Michael ---
