I am making a presentation where the master slilde has a menu made of several gifs. Each gif is hyperlinked to different sections of the presentation. So far so good :)
I have also chosen "highlight when mouse over" for each gif, and my problem is that I can´t seem to change the highlight color in any way. As it is now, the highlight color is black when I hover the menu. Is there any way to change this? Have tried to change the color scheme, but with no luck for the highlight...

Hi LuLu,

The highlight color is directly related to the fill color
of the object. For example: a white fill results in a
black highlight mouse-over, a blue fill results in a
yellow highlight mouse-over.

You'll have to use an image editor to change the color of
your gif files if you want to change the highlight color.

HTH,
Glenna

Thanks for your help Glenna - seems like I have to play a bit with the images then
Strange though, the way the colors correspond - why blue/yellow and why not for example blue/green :-
Any ideas why

Hi Lulu,

I think they're roughly opposite each other on the color
palette in PowerPoint. Makes sense if you think about it,
but it would be nice to be able to select the highlight
color.

Hello,

PowerPoint doesn't provide the functionality (custom control over action
setting highlight color) that you are looking for.

If you (or anyone else reading this message) think that it's important that
PowerPoint provide this kind of functionality, don't forget to send your
feedback (in YOUR OWN WORDS, please) to Microsoft at:

http://register.microsoft.com/mswish/suggestion.asp

As with all product suggestions, it's important that you not just state
your wish but also WHY it is important to you that your product suggestion
be implemented by Microsoft. Microsoft receives thousands of product
suggestions every day and we read each one but, in any given product
development cycle, there are only sufficient resources to address the ones
that are most important to our customers so take the extra time to state
your case as clearly and completely as possible.

IMPORTANT: Each submission should be a single suggestion (not a list of
suggestions).
