    Jonathan- I followed your guidance on X-fear from Key Note control to MMhMM and back yet with a modification for my personal set up. 1 Have a Profile for Keynote. And a Profile for mmHmm. So my 2 part Mutlti- Action is: When in mmhmm-- Keyname Cross/Keynote Multi action part one: “Open Keynote Multi action part two: “Switch to my Keynote Profile on Stream Deck” and to return to mmhmm- I created the reverse to return to mmHmm. Not bad thinking for a 70 year old man! Laughs! Cheers from Virginia in the USA

    I bought a 12 key Stream Deck- after watching Jonathan’s video I thought of about a dozen more reasons to move to the XL- so my son is inheriting the 12 key Stream Deck! Thank you Jonathan for a no BS thoughtful and intelligent presentation..

    Hi Jonathan, thanks for your really helpful advice. Can you please explain how you defined a shortcut for opacity or size at 100 or 50 percent? The mmhmm built in shortcuts only have increasing or decreasing by 20% and I can't figure out how to configure it. Thanks!

    I didn’t define them, they are the default settings, I just assigned keys to the menu items on the stream deck

    @@JonathanTracey Sorry of course, I meant mmhmm - where can I find the shortcuts? Apologies if I'm asking a silly question...The only options I see for opacity are increase/decrease by 20% (option - up/down arrow) and the same but with command for size. I'd like to define a shortcut for 60% opacity and 100% opacity, and 100% size and 40% size, but I don't know how to do that. Thank you in advance

    When I import slides in mmhmm, I can linking a "slide" to a position of the output of the camera, is there a way to do something similar with keynote?

    @@JonathanTracey the work around idea I came so far, is to create a multi action button "next" that will go both to the next slide on keynote and the next "place" in mmhmm (with the correct camera position") , yet they I don't have the correct preview, so the importanting of the slides might work better. I wonder if OBS would give me more options here...

    For this one yes, it gives a much better key than the built in background replacement
