animation

[Guest]

I have a slide [35] that hyperlinks to another slide [76] which has custom
animation, then hyperlinks back to the slide [35]. Here is the problem, once
we are back at slide [35] and we want to "restart" the hyperlink to slide
[76], it doesn't start from the beginning of the custom animation. I would
like to toggle back and forth between the two slides with the animation
starting from the beginning on slide [76] each time. Is there a way to get
the animation to refresh?

Put a blank slide before each of the slides 35 and 76. The blank slide
should have an automatic transition to advance after 0 seconds. Slide
animations only reset when you advance forward to the slide. This is the
way to fake that.

David's suggestion is a good one. Another way you can do it is to make a
custom show that contains slide 76, Then, link to the show and check the
show and return button. Whenever you go to slide 76, the animations will
start over.
