[Solved] Hyperlink to specific page does not auto-update

Post by hbhcv »

I have added several hyperlinks in my Impress-presentation to go to other pages in the same presentation.

After some usage, I had to update my presentation, and I inserted (by means of duplicate slide) a new slide. I used "duplicate slde" since I needed a lot of the same content.
That new slide I then moved to another location in the presentation.

To my surprise, my hyperlinks which were in the file, where all directing to other slides now. I had to correct them all again. It looks as if the hyperlinks are not updated, if a slide is pasted inbetween.

Hyperlinks are static, so no update possible.

Instead of pointing to the page, I would give a name to the text box or the shape that is on the page and make the hyperlink point to that object (use the Target dialog). Then, as soon as you don't change the name of that object, the hyperlink will always be valid.

Thanks to add '[Solved]' at beginning of your first post title (edit button) if your issue has been fixed.
