Hi there, Louisa!
You're correct - you can link to a single resource, but not the tab itself. However, there are some options that may work for you. Personally, I would recommend creating a lightbox slide instead and store your documents/links here. Then, you could simply open the lightbox slide from the "Resources" hyperlink you'd like to use in your slide(s).
Another option, though it may be a little more time-consuming, would be to make a layer on your slide(s) that is designed similar to the Resources tab. You could even apply some transition effects if you'd like to get creative.
In the meantime, if you'd like to see some additional functionality for the Resources tab, I recommend getting in touch with our development team. Personally, I'd love to see some additional player triggers - including the ability to call/close a specific tab.
Thanks and best of luck! :)
