Action button transition

-- I am creating a program that will include questions…i.e., how many USB
ports does your computer have? There would be two buttons on the screen.
One button may have text that says one, another button may have text that
says 3. If they click on the one button, a word will appear (WRONG) and
take them back to the start of that lesson. If they select 3, a word will
appear (CORRECT) and move them forward to the next lesson. THanks

There are a few ways to do what you want to do:

(1) You could use VBA and get the exact affect you want with two simple
lines of code, some thing like:

MsgBox "Wrong"
ActivePresentation.SlideShowWindow.View.GotoSlide 3

(2) You also do something with animations and/or transitions that also
does what you want. I'm thinking that your Action button could link to a
hidden slide that is right before the beginning of the module. The
hidden slide could be set to transition automatically after 2 seconds,
and it would contain the word RIGHT on it. The ONE button could link to
that slide, which would show for two seconds and automatically go to the
next slide, which is th start of the module.

I'm sure there are other options such as having the button trigger an
animation with a shape that might cover the whole slide and have the
word WRONG in it. The shape might have a mouse over effect that links
back to the beginning of the module.
