Remove full screen button from PiP view

[TemoCrevlis]

Your use case

From a PIP window you can make the call window full screen with the button on the bottom right.
But there isn't a button to undo the change in grid view.

This is fine for when you're in the room since you must select "Spotlight" to see the maximise button and the subsequent minimise button when in full screen.

When maximising from PiP the minimise button is not apparent.

What would you like to do?

Add maximise/minimise button to grid view

Have you considered any alternatives?

Some alternatives:

• Remove the maximize button from this PiP view
• Make the maximize button additionally switch you into spotlight layout

Remove the maximise button from this PiP view

• I like the quoted idea more than the other. It allows for gradually making the view bigger: from PiP view > In-Room view > (Expand) > Full screen.
• I would also recommend making the full screen button visible for both, spotlight and grid view.
• • If you keep the full screen button in the PiP view there would be an apparent way to undo the change when maximised, whether it's to spotlight or grid view.
• And users who want to use grid-view in full-screen would now have a more straightforward path.

Glad to hear.

Our team discussed this issue and we agreed to simply remove the maximize button from this view. I have renamed this issue so we can use it to track that particular task. We do need to consider what happens with the full screen button in the long term (it's true that its current placement on spotlight tiles isn't always trivial to access, and is not indicative of what it maximizes), but rethinking will take a while.

Thanks for reviewing and coming to a decision on this.
Looking forward to the full screen solution.
