Applying slide transitions to hyperlinks

Are slide transitions only applicable to a linear
advancing of the slide show? If I use an interactive menu
slide, the hyperlink works but in jumping to the correct
slide, the transition I assigned to destination slide is
not applied.
 
The transition is not applied when you hyperlink because PowerPoint defaults
to showing the finished stage of the slide (after all animations and
transition). Here's a workaround from:

http://www.indezine.com/notes/2004/07/link-to-slide-and-all-animations-are.html

1. In your presentation, insert blank slides between all slides.

2. Give these blank slides a slide transition that automatically advances in
00:00 seconds.

3. Place all hyperlinks to the blank slide before the slide you actually
want to hyperlink.

Now when you view the slide show, all animations (and transition) for a
particular slide will show.
