I teach computer education to children aged between 6 and 12. I am having a
problem when we use action buttons in PowerPoint 2007. The children place a
blank action button over the words/picture that they want to "hyperlink" to
another slide.. They then are formatting the shape (no fill, no line). When
they view their slideshow they find it very difficult to find the link, as
the link is only activated when the mouse pointer is exactly on the edge of
the action button. In 2003 PowerPoint, this wasn't a problem, the whole
action button was the link. Is there something that we need to do differently?

Wrong newsgroup. Try the Powerpoint NG. This is Access...
