02:12 | Notice that the inserted picture covers almost the whole slide. |

02:27 | In a similar manner, we can also insert other objects like charts and movie-clips into our presentation. |
02:35 | Explore all these possibilities. |
02:38 | Now let's learn how to hyperlink. |
02:41 | Hyperlinking allows you to easily move from slide to slide or open a web page or a document from the presentation. |
02:50 | First we will look at how to hyperlink with in a presentation. |
02:54 | Insert a new slide after the slide titled 'Overview'. |
03:03 | Click on the title and type: "Table of Contents". |
03:07 | Click on the Body text-box and type the titles of the succeeding slides as follows: |
03:14 | "Open Source Funny"
"The Present Situation" "Development up to present" "Potential Alternatives" "Recommendation" |
03:25 | Select the line of text ‘Development up to present’. |
03:29 | Click on Insert and Hyperlink. |
03:32 | This will open the Hyperlink dialog-box. |

04:05 | Again click on the Apply button and then click on the Close button in the Hyperlink dialog-box. |
04:12 | Click anywhere in the slide. |
04:14 | Now, when you hover the cursor over the text, the cursor turns into a pointing finger. |
04:21 | This means that the hyperlinking was successful! |
04:25 | Clicking on the hyperlinked text takes you to the relevant slide. |
04:30 | To hyperlink to another document, let's go back to the 'Table of Contents' slide. |
04:36 | Now, add another line item: 'External Document'. |

05:08 | Click on the Apply button and then click on the Close button in the Hyperlink dialog box. |
05:14 | Click anywhere on the slide. |
05:17 | Now when you hover your cursor over the text, the cursor turns into a pointing finger. |

05:32 | In our case, it takes us to 'resume.odt'. |
05:37 | Hyperlinking to a web-page is similar. |
05:40 | Insert a new slide at the end of the presentation. |

05:48 | In the Body text box, type: "Ubuntu"

06:17 | Click on the Apply button and then click on the Close button in the Hyperlink dialog-box. |
06:23 | Click anywhere on the slide. |
06:26 | Now, when you hover your cursor over the text, the cursor turns into a pointing finger. |
06:32 | This means that the hyperlinking was successful! |
06:37 | Now, clicking on the hyperlinked text takes you to the relevant web-page. |
06:44 | Lastly, tables are used to organize data into columns and rows. |
06:49 | Let’s now learn how to add a table in 'LibreOffice Impress'. |
06:54 | Select the slide entitled ‘Development up to present’ from the Slides pane. |
07:00 | From the Layout section on the Tasks pane, select Title and 2 Content icon. |
07:08 | Select the text in the left side text-box |
07:14 | and reduce the font-size to 26. |
07:17 | In the right side text-box, click on the icon Insert Table from the Insert toolbar in the centre. |
07:25 | By default, Number of columns is displayed as 5 and Number of rows is displayed as 2. |
07:34 | We will change the Number of columns to 2 and the Number of rows to 5. |
07:42 | Click on the OK button. |
07:44 | Let's elongate the table so that the text is readable. |
07:49 | Enter data into the table as shows- |
07:52 | "Implementation Year" and "%" (percentage) |
07:56 | 2006 10% |
07:59 | 2007 20% |
08:02 | 2008 30% |
08:05 | 2009 40% |
08:08 | Now, let's change the font of the header row to bold and center the text. |
08:18 | To change the color of the table, first select all the text. |
08:22 | Then from the Table Design section on the Tasks pane, select a table style. I will select this one. |
08:31 | See how the Table looks now. |
