Default Creating button that disappears upon clicking it.

Hello,

I have been trying to create an action button that disappears when you
click IT specifically, but have only been able to create a button that
disappears when you click ANYWHERE on the screen. I am using Mac
Office 2008 PowerPoint.

Can anybody please help me with this? I've seen it done successfully
before, I just don't know how to do it myself.

Thank you so much!

Hi

In the Windows version you could use triggers for this - I'm not sure if
triggers are available ion the Mac version or not. Try asking over on the
Mac forum:

triggers.

On a PC check out he
