right-clicking.

Modifications to the page number fields can be done in two different ways:
Select the field and apply the formatting manually.
Switch to the slide master editing mode (View > Master > Slide Master),
then modify the Background object style as desired. Once back in Normal view,
insert the page numbers from the Insert > Page Number box. See Chapter 2
for more information about editing a slide master.
Using hyperlinks
When inserting text (such as a website address or URL) that can be used as a
hyperlink, Impress formats it automatically, creating the hyperlink and applying a
color and underlining. If you do not want Impress to do that, select Edit > Undo
Insert from the menu bar or press Control+Z immediately after the formatting has
been applied.
You can also insert hyperlinks manually.
Tips
To prevent OOo from automatically turning website addresses (URLs) into
hyperlinks, go to Tools > AutoCorrect > Options and deselect the URL
Recognition checkbox.
To change the color of hyperlinks, go to Tools > Options >
OpenOffice.org > Appearance, scroll to Unvisited links and/or Visited
links, select the checkboxes, pick the new colors and click OK. Caution:
this will change the color for all hyperlinks in all components of
OpenOffice.org—this may not be what you want.
