​​Fullscreen Interactive Google Slides

by Andrew Ranallo and Noreen Ranallo
Drag the Bookmarklet to your bookmarks bar:
​This bookmarklet installs a javascript code to your bookmarks bar that will allow you to go fullscreen while in editing mode in Google Slides. 
​This allows you to move objects and add text while presenting the slides to your students whether through a Meet or in-person on a projector.
​What is a bookmarklet? (from How-to Geek)
"Web browser bookmarklets allow you to perform actions on the current page with just a click or tap. They’re a lightweight alternative to browser extensions. They even work on mobile browsers that don’t support traditional extensions."
The video above shows you how to use the bookmarklet and navigate the Slideshow.

Add the bookmarklet

Drag the "Full/Interactive Slides" link below to the bookmarks bar of your browser.

Exiting Fullscreen Mode

The easiest way is to press CTRL+R (or press FN+F5)
Ctrl+R is the same as clicking the "reload this page" icon (circular arrow) on your browser

If you exit using the...
ESC key
X on the top-center of the slide
F11 key
...then you just need to "reload the page" using the reload icon on your URL bar, or press ctrl+R
