Make Camera Overlay & Recording Controls Visible in All Screen-Sharing Options

Make Camera Overlay & Recording Controls Visible in All Screen-Sharing Options

Hi Zoho WorkDrive Team,
Hope you are doing well.

We would like to request an improvement to the screen-recording experience in Zoho WorkDrive.

Current Limitation:
At the moment the recording controls are visible only inside the Zoho WorkDrive tab.
When sharing the screen(even the entire screen), the controls do not appear in any other window, application, or browser tab.

The only difference (with regards to the Camera Overlay & Recording Controls) is that when searing the entire screen you can click on Picture-in-Picture and have the camera overlay is visible in other windows, tabs etc. But when selecting a specific window or tab, neither the camera overlay nor the recording controls are visible at all.

This makes it very difficult to produce consistent tutorials, demos, and walkthroughs.

Feature Request:
Please enable the camera overlay and recording controls to remain visible in all recording modes:
Entire screen, Specific window, Specific browser tab, Selected area (once available)

Why this matters:
  1. Ensures a consistent, professional recording experience
  2. Allows presenters to monitor recording status without switching back to the WorkDrive tab
  3. Makes tutorials clearer by keeping the presenter’s camera visible
  4. Prevents accidental mistakes (such as thinking recording has stopped)
  5. Aligns WorkDrive with the functionality provided by leading screen-recording tools

Adding support for displaying both the camera overlay and recording controls across all sharing options would greatly improve usability and reduce friction during recording.

Thank you very much for considering this improvement.
Warm regards,
Ram
