idea (UI): "Presenter actions" button for presenters #18603

Open gustavotrott opened 1 year ago

gustavotrott commented 1 year ago

Currently the UI has the Actions (+) button which is 90% used to show presenter-only options. So I think it makes totally sense to restrict this area to Presenter actions and remove anything else from there. It will make the UI more organized in my opinion.

Basically the idea is:

    • Rename the button to "Presenter actions" instead of "Actions"
    • Make this button visible only for presenter and moderators (Moderator will see the option "Take presenter")
    • Change the Icon to something related with presenter or sharing (instead of Plus sign) share-icon-410x512-c6c8f2fw
  2. Move "Share your screen" button to this dropdown (and remove from the bottom bar)
  3. Remove the option "Manage layout" option from the "Presenter actions" dropdown (and place it on the top of the layout)

Looks like there is common interest in grouping the tools for sharing (screen, external video, camera for content, presentation) together. The movement of the layout trigger is more contradictory. We should iterate over this and ideally reach some consensus before making code changes.
