Touch Bar for Keynote on Mac
If your Mac has a Touch Bar, you can use familiar gestures — such as tap, swipe and slide — directly on the Touch Bar to edit and control presentations in Keynote. Controls on the Touch Bar change depending on what’s selected in your presentation.
For example, when you play a presentation, the Touch Bar shows all your slides along with other controls. If you’re presenting on a separate display, tap 
to switch the display showing the presentation.
If you’re working in the slide navigator, the Touch Bar shows the controls to reorder, skip and group slides.
If a shape is selected, the Touch Bar shows controls to change the shape’s stroke (outline), colour fill, opacity and more.
Show controls for Keynote
If you don’t see the controls for editing text and performing other tasks in Keynote, turn them on in System Settings (or System Preferences).
Do one of the following:
macOS Ventura 13 or later: Choose Apple menu
> System Settings, then click Keyboard in the sidebar. (You may need to scroll down.) Click the Touch Bar Settings button.macOS 12 or earlier: Choose Apple menu
> System Preferences, click Keyboard, then click the Keyboard button.
Click the pop-up menu next to “Touch Bar shows”, then choose App Controls.
You can find more information about how to use the Touch Bar in the macOS User Guide.
