Mouse linking detail in one slide to another slide

S

Sigurd Lindberg

Not easy to find the right forum for questions in the jungel! Hope I´m on the
right place now -
Is it possible to mouseclick directly on a detail in one slide thus bringing
another slide to appear on the screen? - how?

Select the "detail" and then go to Slide Show > Action Settings > Hyperlink To.
Scroll down to "Slide" and select the slide you want to link to. You'll then
need to go to View > Slide Show to test the presentation and the link.

Dear Sonia!
Thank you for answering. First: It works allright - but it is a bit
complicated. When a mail appears in a mail - as yours for instance! - I only
need klick on it and vupti (danish expression!) here you are. The microsoft
hyperlink method in PowerPoint involves 3 steps to achieve the wanted change.
I should want it as easy and simple as a common link at the internet. Is it
possible - or should Bill Gates go to work on the issue? Second: is it
possible to change color of the hyperlinkedmarked sentense?
Third: How to "mark" a detail in a picture getting it (and not the rest of
the picture) hypermarked? sincerely your sigurd

PPT will autocomplete links to the web if you have that option turned on in
the Autocorrect settings. Type www-dot-whatever (www.) and the text will
appear underlined and the link created. (Tools/Autocorrect/[replace as you
type] Internet and network paths with hyperlinks)

This is akin to the link you'd create in an email or on a webpage -- they
generally point to an internet or network path.

What you asked for is a link to a slide within the presentation. You have to
go through a little more to get to that, just as you would if you were
linking to a specific slide from within an email message. So personally, I
think you're confusing different hyperlinking behavior.
Second: is it possible to change color of the
hyperlinkedmarked sentense?

You want a "hot spot." Generally, you can create an autoshape to cover the
appropriate area, add the hyperlink, and give it no line and no fill.
However, the actual line and fill settings you want will depend on which
version of PPT you're using and which version of PPT (or the PPT Viewer) the
presentation will ultimately be shown with.
