Improve embeds (seamless embeds with no scrollbars or chrome, no click to interact)
Nicolette Cee
When I go to embed files, there are alot of "code" embeds that the end user has to click to see, then it takes them away from my main page. That's a huge problem. I'd love true embeds were everything works on the page.

I use iframes in your presentation mode (vs website) and think it is a huge differentiator over other presentation products. I would like the iframe to be active however without having to tap to expand or open in new tab.

hi Eric Rubin can you provide a little bit more detail about what you're asking for?
We do have an embed feature right now that lets you embed other sites (that allow iframing) directly into a gamma

Nik Payne (Gamma design) Hi Nik, I'm using your embed webpage component in gamma. It works well, but when sharing the presentation a user has to first click on the iframe to interact with it- so the UX is unexpected. I can understand why you would do that, but as you start to blur the distinction between a website and a presentation, the expected behavior on a website would be to interact directly with the iframe w/o having to click-to-interact. Hope that makes sense

Embeds should appear without scrollbars, visible links, or external-looking frames, and shouldn't look like they're embedded.

Allowing truly seamless embeds (e.g., for forms or other web pages) without scrollbars, visible links, or external-looking frames would help create more immersive, integrated experiences directly within Gamma pages.

Hi Nicolette Cee, have you tried setting the display to Inline? The viewer will still have to click to interact, but it should open in the same window and when they close it, they'll be in your Gamma. You can also change the click action for Preview to do the same.
Let me know if this doesn't work or suit your needs!
