It does offer full screen docs, which is nice, but I really just want the normal screen, without the MEETING NOTES and EMAIL DRAFT popups, or the DOCUMENT OUTLINE pop ups, or the calendar and maps integration that you cant turn off, which this extension doesn't do.

This extension is essential for sharing screens live while being able to edit them for teaching purposes.
