Official names - Parts of Standard Screen?

Where can I access the AC 'official names' of the parts of the screen when in Standard view?

E.g. what is the name for the button in the Menu Bar that looks like a box with 9 dots in it? In various Adobe and other documentation I find zero names for it; rather only a screen shot. Similarly, in the top-left of the AC screen, the name of the room is displayed - what is this part of the screen 'officially' called? I have the same question for all parts of the interface, including pods and menus.

I need to write documentation for several clients and want to tow the line w/official (as compared to totally made up) names. (Some past clients objected to my use of "Do-hickie" and "Thing-ah-ma-jig"; so demanding they were!)

Please direct me to an official Adobe source.

Thank you!!!

Re: Official names - Parts of Standard Screen?

The menu found in the room name is the Meeting Menu.
The menu found with the 9 squares is the Pods Menu.
Then there is the speaker/audio menu, the mic/telephone menu, the camera menu, and the Status menu.

Participants may only see the speaker and status menus.

Do I count as official? I'm just applying the old naming convention to the new menus because change is hard, lol.

These resources may also be handy as they include an image of the interface with some names.
