For the viewer automatically center and show the presenters desktop in original size if possible

[bigbluebutton-issue-import]

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 903

Currently, when a presenter shares her screen, if the user is on a larger monitor, they


1.  Click the "Show Original Size" button
2.  Expand the deskshare window to full size
3.  Center it on their screen

Add intelligence to the deskshare window to automatically do the above if there is
sufficient area to show the presenters screen in original size.

First see

  http://code.google.com/p/bigbluebutton/wiki/FAQ#Contributing_to_BigBlueButton

This particular enhancement is not likely to take a huge amount of code.  See the above
link to the FAQ.  The best approach is to setup a development environment for BigBlueButton

    http://code.google.com/p/bigbluebutton/wiki/DevelopingBBB

and give it a try.  If you have questions, post to bigbluebutton-dev for help.

We got pretty close with this in BigBlueButton 2.0-beta where the desktop sharing viewing window is now centered for the students. Marking this issue as closed.
