I don't recall having done anything different.

As it happens, I just tried again. Again, the first attempt was terrible. I had to keep using the Navigation Ball to force a refresh of the Note Pro's screen. The image of the shared screen would change on the laptop, but the screen on the Note Pro wouldn't register the change until I tapped on the Navigation Ball. PDFs in the NeoReader app were also sometimes behaving funny.

Logged out and then logged back in on the Note Pro and everything seemed to be working fine. Very odd.

Overall, I find the native note taking app to be fairly reliable. NeoReader not so much. The Librera and Moon+ Reader Pro reading apps both seemed to work quite well with PDFs. It was very easy to pinch and zoom and move the PDFs around, something which seems difficult for NeoReader to do. However, one can't annotate books with those other reading apps.

On my second attempt this time, I also tried opening a map app which worked very well. I had sort of expected it to show up in colour on the laptop, but it was in gray scale. The same is true when using a colour brush in the note taking app: it shows up in gray scale.

I then tried browsing the internet using Firefox and that also worked quite well.

Not sure why sharing a screen sometimes works well and other times is a disaster. However, I would always have the Navigation Ball at the ready if I were sharing the screen of the Note Pro in an actual meeting. Sometimes it seems the only way to get the screen of the Note Pro to render properly is just by tapping the Navigation Ball, and then tapping it again to get rid of the buttons. Very odd.
