Set to click link once, but have to click twice

Oct 02, 2015

I have several links to external sites in my training. I have them set to click once and open, but I have to click on them twice to open them, just like an icon on your desktop. 

Why is it making me click twice when I didn't select the double click option?

Hi Lisa!

The text seems to be in a large text box that is also within a chart image, correct? The two-clicks seems to be selecting the 'object', then selecting the text hyperlink.

I'm not sure if you wish to re-arrange your layers or perhaps minimize this impact to keep the system from not knowing you're clicking on a hyperlink. 

That's the difference in the two slides though.
