About hyperlinks and action buttons
In Microsoft PowerPoint, a hyperlink is a connection from a slide to another slide, a custom show, a Web page, or a file. The hyperlink itself can be text or an object such as a picture, graph, shape, or WordArt. An action button is a ready-made button that you can insert into your presentation and define hyperlinks for.
In PowerPoint, hyperlinks become active when you run your presentation, not when you are creating it. When you point to a hyperlink, the pointer becomes a hand , indicating that it is something you can click. Text that represents a hyperlink is displayed underlined and in a colour that coordinates with your colour scheme. Pictures, shapes and other object hyperlinks have no additional formatting. You can add action settings, such as sound or highlighting, to emphasize hyperlinks.
Use action buttons when you want to include buttons with commonly understood symbols for going to the next, previous, first, and last slides. PowerPoint also has action buttons for playing movies or sounds. Action buttons are most commonly used for self-running presentations— for example, at a booth or kiosk.

Animation
To simplify designing with animations, apply a preset animation scheme to items on all slides, selected slides, or some items on the slide master. Or, you can control how and when you want an item to appear on a slide during your presentation— to fly in from the left when you click the mouse, for example— using the Custom Animation task pane.
Custom animations can be applied to items on a slide, in a placeholder, or to a paragraph (which includes single bullets or list items). For instance, you can apply the fly-in animation to all items on a slide or you can apply it to a single paragraph in a bulleted list. Use entrance, emphasis, or exit options, in addition to preset or custom motion paths. Also, you can apply more than one animation to an item; so, you can make that bullet item fly in and then fly out.
Most animation options include associated effects to choose from. These might include options for playing a sound with the animation, and text animations usually let you apply the effect by letter, word, or paragraph (such as having a title fly in a word at a time instead of all at once).
You can preview the animation of your text and objects for one slide or for the whole presentation.
