Default Prevent 'click anywhere in slide'

Hi all, I'm using PP2016 and would like to know if it is possible to disable advancing slides by clicking anywhere in the slide. I want users to click only on the various buttons to advance to different slides in my presentation.



My thanks in advance.

You can use Kiosk mode (Slide Show > set up show) BUT this will also disable on click animations.

Thanks JW

Unfortunately my presentation is very interactive so I cannot go that route.

I like Power Point but this little quirk is really annoying.

Regards

Edward
