In the above ex amples, our scripts to hide and show ob jects specified which
slides con tained the ob jects. Sometimes you want an action to affect the current
slide with out re gard to which number slide it is. For ex ample, you might want to
show an ob ject on the current slide or add some text to a text box on the cur rent

with the same name or num ber, we could add a line to
DoingWell
to show the star
on the current slide. One
DoingWell
pro cedure would be used for all the slides.

on one slide but wish to have something change on an other slide, as we saw in

to be set up prop erly before the user got there, so the change happened to the
other slides when the user was on the first slide. We also want changes to happen
before we arrive at a slide. If we hide our star (or change text on a slide or change
the color of menu items) just as we ar rive at a slide, the hid den ob ject will be on
the screen for a split second be fore disappearing. In some cases, this might not be
a big prob lem, but if the action is to hide the an swer to the ques tion, this could be
very important.
