How to hide video thumbnail when screen sharing on ipad

When screen sharing a presentation (PowerPoint) from an iPad, I can’t remove the video thumbnail in the corner; has anyone had any success in removing this from the screen when sharing. I think it has to do with the PowerPoint slide share settings and zoom settings, but it’s rather frustrating.

    I have the same question, and it does not seem answered.

    I also have this question. Trying a screen share from iPad today it doesn't matter what I'm sharing the video thumbnail stays on the screen. It's quite annoying.

    I just figured out how to do this (after I took the time to open a ticket of course).

    Use one finger to flick the video off the screen. It will leave a little arrow so you can get it back.

    I can also use one finger to flick the video thumbnail to other spots on either side of the screen, and then off the screen at that spot if needed.
