Abstract: The present invention relates to systems and methods for providing screen sharing techniques to selectively share portions of the screen between a source node and a consumer node. The source node, such as the computer of a presenter of an online meeting, may transmit screen data to a consumer node, such as the computer of an attendee of the online meeting. The consumer or attendee computer uses the screen data to display the screen of the source or presenter's computer. The techniques of the present invention provide a mechanism for not sharing a selective portion of the presenter's screen during screen sharing. So, although a certain element may be displayed on the screen of the presenter, the present invention prevents an attendee from viewing the user interface element in the screen share session.
