Jumping to a Particular Slide
If you want to be able to move through your presentation in a nonlinear path, or if you
want viewers to choose their own paths through your presentation (for example, if the
slideshow is presented in a kiosk), you can use hyperlinks to jump to any slide in your
Keynote document.
To add a hyperlink that jumps to a particular slide:
1
Select the text or object that you want to turn into a hyperlink.
2
Click Inspector in the toolbar, click the Hyperlink inspector button, and then select
“Enable as a hyperlink.”
3
Choose Slide from the Link To pop-up menu.
4
Select the option that describes the slide you want to display (next, previous, first, last,
last viewed, or a slide number).
You can use hyperlinks to control navigation during a slideshow. See “Creating Self-
Playing Presentations” on page 200.
Creating a “Stop Slideshow” Button Within Your Slideshow
If you want to be able to stop a slideshow by clicking a button or text within the
slideshow, create a hyperlink that stops the slideshow.
To add a hyperlink that stops a slideshow:
1
Select the object or text that you want to use to trigger stopping the slideshow.
2
Click Inspector in the toolbar, click the Hyperlink inspector button, and then select
“Enable as a hyperlink.”
3
Choose Exit Slideshow from the Link To pop-up menu.
Opening Another Keynote Slideshow During Your Presentation
Add a hyperlink that opens another Keynote file.
To add a hyperlink that opens another Keynote document:
1
Select the text or object that you want to turn into a hyperlink.
2
Click Inspector in the toolbar, click the Hyperlink inspector button, and then select
“Enable as a hyperlink.”
3
Choose Keynote Slideshow from the Link To pop-up menu.
4
Navigate to the file, and click Open.

If you want to change text that appears as the hyperlink in the document, type new
text in the Display field.
When you click a link to another Keynote document, the new slideshow begins playing
from the first slide.
