Expected result

I expect to be able to easily exit the presentation mode

Additional information

First noticed the bug on the minimal theme. It’s still there on the default theme in restricted mode.

I see similar on my end and it’s untappable. Had to force quit Obsidian to exit the slide.

For the time being, you can use a CSS snippet like this to push the exit button down:

.slides-close-btn {
  padding-top: var(--safe-area-inset-top); /* can be a px value as well. e.g., <20px> */
}

Thank you! That works for the time being.
