Share your screen
In your video conferencing app, choose Keynote from the Share menu. Instructions may vary depending on your video conferencing app.
Use the presenter display window
To show the presenter display window, move your pointer near the top of the slideshow window, then click the presenter display window button .
To go to the next or previous slides, use the left and right arrow keys.
To change the size of your presenter notes, move your pointer over the presenter notes, then use the text size buttons .
To show or hide thumbnails, click the thumbnail button .
If viewers can see the presenter display window
If viewers can see the presenter display window, make sure the setting “Show presenter display window in other applications” is not selected in the Slideshow tab of Keynote preferences.
