Abstract
A system providing persistent display of prioritized participants with shared content. In a virtual meeting, a system can automatically and adaptively place a specific attendee's video based on the attendee's role and shared content having a specific data type. For example, a user can have accessibility settings that indicates a need for assistance. The system can automatically display a persistent display of a video stream of that user's assistant in a user interface. When content is shared, the system analyzes a rendering of the content to identify regions where the shared content is not displayed. The system then dynamically configures the user interface so that the persistent display of the video stream of the user's assistant is located in a region where the shared content is not displayed. Such features enable the user to have a consistent view of an assistant during the display of shared content.
