Software Fail Moment of the Day

[nonelvis]

Brought to you by Adobe Acrobat Connect. This is what happens if you're trying to share your screen and then see what other people are viewing. I wouldn't even have tried this if it weren't for the fact that the damned software makes it impossible to tell what you're actually sharing with the presentation viewers, thus leading you to believe that sharing isn't working at all.

Apparently this is expected behavior. Sure looks like fail to me.

There's an icon at the bottom of the screen. It looks like eyeglasses. It's off by default. If you click on it (as you did), it starts the "recursive screen sharing". If you leave it unclicked (or actively un-click it in your case), the recursive sharing will stop.

Right ... the question is why the recursiveness is there in the first place. Surely the software is smart enough to detect whether the user has one monitor instead of multiple ones, and should be able to activate the eyeglass icon accordingly.
