The conference console shows four panels on each corner. The panels collapse after a period of inactivity. To expand the collapsed panel, click or tap on the panel. Or you can unpin the panel so it automatically hides (instead of collapsing to a smaller panel) Unpinning a panel allows you to focus on the main view.
