Perfect.
This will call on multiple tricks. The main one being that a shape can be
a trigger and have an action setting (hyperlink).
Presentation 1 is the original presentation
Presentation A is the presentation you link to.
In presentation 1, on the slide that you have the hyperlink on,
add a large rectangle that covers the entire slide.
Add an animation to appear.
To be safe, add a 1 second delay
Add a trigger animation to start effect on click of your
Hyperlink shape
Add an action setting
on mouse over
hyperlink to the desired jump slide number in Pres 1
So, what happens is this. In presentation 1, you progress to the slide with
the link. When you click the link, you jump to Pres A, but behind it Pres 1
is still running and now has the added rectangle showing. You progress thru
Pres A until you end it. When Pres A closes, it reveals Pres A, activating
the mouse over action setting on the shape in Pres 1. This jumps you to
the desired landing point in Pres 1.
If you never click on the link, the shape with the action setting never
shows up and therefore never activates.
Tricky, but useful.
