Hello,

I have a presentation that will be used in a kiosk. There
are actually 4 seperate presentations. One of the
presentations is a single slide that contains buttons that
I use as a menu; the other 3 presentations are accessed
via hyperlinks from the menu. I want to be able have the 3
presentations automatically go back to the menu if any of
the presentations are idle for a specified period of time
and/or when a kiosk user gets to the end of one of the
presentations. I have the presentations all set to run as
a kiosk presentation. As it is now when the end of a
presentation is reached and the "next slide" action button
is clicked, it will go back to the first slide of that
particular presentation; how can I get it to go back to
the menu instead? Also how can I get it to go back to the
menu if a slide is idle for a period of time? Thank you
for any assistance provided.

I'm not sure that you can go back to the main presentation when idle (but
someone else might have a better answer). To get it to go back to the
main presentation after the last slide, change the Action Settings on the
button on the last slide to End Show rather than Next Slide. If the
button is on the slide master, just put a new button right on top of that
on the last slide.
