Slide Advancement

I'm trying to make it so when a user clicks on a slide they return to the
slide they were just previously on. I made a map with a bunch of hyperlinked
objects that when clicked on show a image of the actual object, but I want
the presentation to go back to the map when the user clicks on the image.

Does anyone know a better way of doing this besides making a hyperlink for
every image I have?

Thanks!

This may or may not work depending on the other navigation in your presentation,
but give it a try:

Draw a rectangle over the entire slide.
Assign it an action setting of "Previously viewed slide"
Format the rectangle to no outline and 99% transparent fill.

Copy and paste it to a few of your other slides and test.

If it works the way you want it to, copy/paste it to all of the slides you want
to return to the map from.

Keep in mind that "Previously viewed" means exactly that. It won't backtrack
through a series of slides like a browser back button will.
