Navigation - How to pause at end display time?

I want to the slide to pause or display indefinitely till the user clicks a button. In the Slide Properties dialog, it seems like there should be a 'do nothing' option in the Navigation dropdown, but there's not. How can I achieve this effect of pausing at the end of a slide?

Hi GI2000

Normally you insert either a Click Box or Button object to accomplish this. The default nature of either object is to pause the slide until your user interacts.

I'm using one of the provided skins to implement navigation buttons, so i'm not concerned about that.

But I don't want to have the user to have to click a 'pause' button. What I want is that by default a slide pauses or stops and doesn't continue on to the next slide. Only if the user clicks a 'next' button would the slide advance to the next slide.

How can I acheive this other than setting the display time to an hour?

Hi again GI2000

Seems you misunderstood me. If you use a Click Box or a Button object, the slide pauses dead in its tracks until your user clicks. They do not have to click the object to pause. It pauses automagickally and waits for an action.

Then again, maybe it's me that's misunderstanding what you are wanting to do?

Cheers... Rick
