FIGURE 19.9
You can create a hyperlink via an action setting.
If you are using an e-mail address, type
mailto:
in front of the address you enter when creating the hyperlink. If
you do not, PowerPoint will automatically add
http://
in front of it and the link will not work.

Click OK in the Action Settings dialog box.
Now the graphic functions just like an action button in the presentation; the audience can
click it to jump to the specifi ed location.
Creating a Graphical Hyperlink with Insert Hyperlink
If you would like to take advantage of the superior address-browsing capabilities of the
Insert Hyperlink dialog box when setting up a graphical hyperlink, follow these steps
instead of the preceding ones:
1.
Place the graphic that you want to use for a hyperlink.
2.
Right-click it and choose Hyperlink, or choose Insert
➪
Links
➪
Hyperlink
from the Ribbon.
The Insert Hyperlink dialog box appears.
3.
Choose the location, as you learned earlier in this chapter for text-based
hyperlinks.
The only difference is that the Text to Display box is unavailable
because there is no text. If you typed the text in a graphic, Text to Display is
available.
4.
Click OK.
