AI Thread Summary
Creating "hotspots" in PowerPoint or OpenOffice presentations is achievable by using hyperlinks. In OpenOffice, users can insert a hyperlink by navigating to Insert -> Hyperlink -> Document, then selecting the target slide from the list provided. This functionality is similar in Microsoft Office, allowing presenters to branch off to specific slides for detailed explanations and return to the original point seamlessly. This technique enhances interactivity and allows for a more dynamic presentation experience.

Hi all,
Is there a way to have "hotspots" in a powerpoint/openoffice presentation document?

Yes this is possible.

For Openoffice:

Insert-> Hyperlink-> Document

It should be similar in MS Office.
 
Thanks, that's what I'm looking for.

We can get into how and why it got wrecked later, but suffice to say a kitchen knife was involved: These buttons do want to NOT come off, not like other lappies, where they can snap in and out. And they sure don't go back on. So, in the absence of a longer-term solution that might involve a replacement, is there any way I can activate the power button, like with a paperclip or wire or something? It looks...
In my discussions elsewhere, I've noticed a lot of disagreement regarding AI. A question that comes up is, "Is AI hype?" Unfortunately, when this question is asked, the one asking, as far as I can tell, may mean one of three things which can lead to lots of confusion. I'll list them out now for clarity. 1. Can AI do everything a human can do and how close are we to that? 2. Are corporations and governments using the promise of AI to gain more power for themselves? 3. Are AI and transhumans...
