Boyertown,
Let me see if I understand you correctly. You have a presentation with 35
slides in it, but only 7 of them show in normal editing view or slide sorter
view?
That is correct.
If those extra slides play on a click that could mean there is a link to
another presentation. For instance there could be an object on your slide
that links to another presentation, that object could be outside the
boundaries of your slide or even on your slide.
Well, when you view the slide show itself, they play automatically. When
the primary slide appears, there is a pause of 7 seconds, and then the next
hidden slide appears. After 7 seconds, the next hidden slide appears. And
so on.
Zoom out, to let's say 33 %,
is there anything in the grey area?
No. there is nothing there; however, I can see parts of the underlying
slides around the perimeter of the slide that does show up under Slide Sorter
view.
If there is nothing, go to the custom
animation task pane, see if there is an animation listed there 'object x'.
Not sure what you mean. I believe you want me to go to Custom Animation
under the Slide Show menu. I did that and what appears are the five or so
slides that are underneath the slide that appears in the Slide Sorter view.
These underneath slides are numbered 1 through 5 and have a mouse icon beside
it with a star and the slide name I presume. If I click on the first slide
underneath it brings up a Modify:Wheel with Start / Spokes / Speed showing.
Nothing there to 'hide the object'.
Double click the entry, there should be a checkbox there to hide the object,
uncheck and see if the object turns up on your slide. In any case the object
is letting you link to another presentation that is on your PC.
This is a presentation that I was given a copy of. There are no other
presentations associated with it or resident on my hard drive.
Thanks for your help.
Jerry
=====================================
This presentation is comprised of text on the primary slides that appear in
Slide Sorter view. The underlying slides are pictures and appear with a
wheel spoke effect.
