HI

I have created an interactive presentation within keynote 2, however, I am having a slight difficulty, in that all of my text has become hyphernated. Is there any way that I can turn it off?

What are you asking? "Hypernated" and "hyphernated" aren't words.

Are you talking about hyphenation or hyperlinking?

It's always smart to go right to the source:

In actual fact, those instructions are only for Pages!!

"Keynote 2 Help
__
Using automatic hyphenation

_Pages includes a hyphenation dictionary that follows commonly accepted hyphenation rules. You can turn automatic hyphenation on or off for an entire document, paragraph, or word."

ANybody know how to do the same within keynote?

You're exaggerating, right? Is it really hyphenating all your words? If not, what is it hyphenating that you don't want?

I can't even force Keynote to hyphenate words. I wonder why?

I can't either. I typed in "two man party" and it didn't add the hyphen like it should have.

James, is there a chance you've installed some type of third-party utility that hyphenates words?

James can correct me if I'm wrong, but I assumed he meant it as in "adding hypenation between lines rather than wrapping words." Like so:

James, Keynote doesn't hyphenate for me at all. Have you installed something else that does the hyphenation?
