Technical Updates

- (MAC ONLY): Ability to select a specific window to image capture for polls
- A thumbnail of the capture’s image is briefly shown at the start of each poll (can be hidden too)
- Improved error handling and recovery when the network is lost
- Text labels replace tooltips to identify the toolbar icons
