| • | If you select more than four thumbnails, view the additional screens by scrolling down the right pane. |
| • | If you selected to show student names, names are centered under each student’s captured screen. |
| • | Zoom functions are disabled in Gallery View. |
| • | You can change the order of the screens in the Gallery View. |
