Adding Hyperlinks to Slides

A hyperlink is text or a graphic that when clicked opens another slide or file. When you point to a hyperlink, your mouse cursor turns to a hand, indicating that it is something that can be clicked. Text hyperlinks follow the color scheme of the presentation, and change color after they have been clicked.

To add a hyperlink from one slide to another slide in the same presentation:

1. Select the text or object you want as the link.
2. Click the Insert Hyperlink button on the Standard toolbar to open the Insert Hyperlink dialog box.
3. Under Link to: select Place in this Document.
4. Select the slide to link to.
5. Click OK to insert the hyperlink into your worksheet.

A ScreenTip is a bubble that appears when the mouse is placed over the link. Add a ScreenTip to include a more meaningful description of the hyperlink.

You can also use hyperlinks to link to another presentation, Web page or e-mail address.

To open the Insert Hyperlink dialog box:

1. Press + on the keyboard.
2. Right-click the object; select Hyperlink... from the menu.
3. Select Hyperlink... from the Insert menu.
