share partial screen -- not an option

Hello,

I must give a Keynote presentation via Zoom this week.

Everything I'd read indicated that I would be able to share-screen only slides — but I would also see Keynote presenter notes.

There is apparently an "advanced" choice for "share partial screen."

But I don't have it.  Attached is all I have.

This is a "pro" account.
Mac OS 10.14.2.
Zoom 5.8
Keynote 9.1

Help!!!

Thank you.
Gina

And me know if this helps resolve the issue. 🙂
