Drop down menu in PP2003

[Guest]

Hi.
I am producing a multimedia CD-ROM with Powerpoint2003. On the main menu
page there are a number of topics that the user can then hyperlink to.

What I want is the ability for the user to mouse over the menu
headings/buttons and have a drop down list appear. You see this all the time
on websites, and on CD-ROMs designed with Flash and Director, where
subheadings drop down and are activated by a simple mouse over. It doesn't
concern me whether or not those subheadings would themselves be selectable. I
cannot figure out a way of doing this in Powerpoint. Does anyone have a
solution?

Hi,

You might be chasing an Action Setting to hyperlink to another slide which
will play the drop down list. You could either set it to click (in which
case you could also try a Trigger Animation) or on mouse over.

Admittedly it is not one of PowerPoint's strengths. Actually, if you send me
an email I can send an example. But it is not pretty.
