Use a mmhmm screen share slide
Keynote, PowerPoint, and Google Slides have a feature called "present to window" that makes it significantly easier to share the contents of a presentation. This feature also hides the toolbars and presenter notes from your audience. In any of these programs, present your slide deck to a new window, then use an mmhmm screen share slide to select that window to show.
Here's how to set up "present to window" in several presentation software platforms:
Click Slideshow on the top right-hand side of the window.
Click the vertical ellipsis button and select Exit full screen. This will present your slide deck in a new window.
Then, create a mmhmm screen share slide to share your Google Slides presentation slides.
Click Play in the menu bar on the top of the screen and select In Window. This will present your slide deck in a new window.
Then, create a mmhmm screen share slide to share your Keynote presentation slides.
