We are currently developing a PowerPoint content add-in and have encountered an unusual behavior during presentation mode. When a slide containing the add-in is displayed for the first time, it initially appears at a smaller size before resizing to its intended dimensions. This resizing process can be quite distracting for users, and we are seeking a solution to enhance the loading experience.

Has anyone else experienced this issue, or could you offer any suggestions on how to address it?

To illustrate the problem, I have created a recording using a publicly available add-in that closely resembles the one we are developing.
