This interactive menu in PowerPoint lets them navigate through the presentation with ease, making your presentation a lot more engaging and fun. Your audience will also tend to spend more time exploring the information in your presentation, and this helps them connect better with your content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you read the rest of this article, here&#8217;s a video from our YouTube channel that shows you how you can create a menu, and make it clickable.

Hyperlinks can be used in PowerPoint to link to external pages, another document, or even to a specific place within the document itself. We\u2019re going to use that last feature to create our interactive menu in PowerPoint. But first things first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>You\u2019ll need to design your menu.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To design your menu, you can use text boxes, shapes, images or anything else you want. As long as it can be hyperlinked in PowerPoint, you\u2019re good to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"582\" src=\"https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-41-1024x582.png\" alt=\"3 rectangles shaped like a menu\" class=\"wp-image-16656\" srcset=\"https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-41-1024x582.png 1024w, https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-41-300x170.png 300w, https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-41-768x436.png 768w, https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-41-200x114.png 200w, https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-41-400x227.png 400w, https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-41-600x341.png 600w, https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-41-800x454.png 800w, https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-41-1200x682.png 1200w, https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-41.png 1301w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Start by drawing a rectangle shape, and duplicating it as many times as you want.

You could also add a button on the target slides to go back to the main slide with the menu if you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To do this, simply create a shape, and link it to the main slide. Simple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Some tips to take it to the next level:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>ScreenTip: Craft a short message that pops up when hovering over the menu item, providing additional context.

He creates content and campaigns for SlideBazaar, a global platform that offers PowerPoint templates and tools used by professionals across industries. His work spans newsletters, long-form articles, product messaging, SEO projects, and video scripts. All centered around one goal. Helping people communicate ideas more clearly through better-structured presentations. Instead of treating slides as decoration, Swathi focuses on narrative flow, visual hierarchy, and the logic behind each frame. Born in Kerala and raised in Muscat, he brings a performer\u2019s instinct to his work, shaped by years spent traveling and playing music. That background influences how he thinks about presentations. Not as static documents, but as staged experiences that unfold in time. Today, he writes, teaches, and builds content that helps professionals turn messy ideas into sharp, confident slides that actually hold attention.","sameAs":["https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/","https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/skpswat","https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/swatkp\/reels\/","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/swatkp\/"],"honorificPrefix":"Mr","birthDate":"1995-01-02","gender":"male","knowsAbout":["presentations","PowerPoint"],"knowsLanguage":["English","Hindi","Malayalam"],"jobTitle":"Content Specialist","worksFor":"SlideBazaar","url":"https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/author\/swathi\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16650","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16650"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16650\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18207,"href":"https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16650\/revisions\/18207"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16651"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16650"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16650"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/slidebazaar.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16650"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
