SMART PowerPoint plug-in by default causes the issue that hyperlinks in ppt's no longer work.
In SMART Ink, SMART PowerPoint plug-in by default causes the issue that hyperlinks in ppt's no longer work. This can be very confusing for new users - specially in teaching environments. It would be better if this feature was disabled by default - or be configurable by the administration

Hello and thank you for finding this issue for us. You are correct, if you have a connected computer to a panel, and are connected to that input, it would appear that you cannot dynamically create hyperlinks inside powerpoint. I will log this as a bug, however, I cannot guarantee a resolution date.
The work around for this would be to disconnect from the input and restart PowerPoint. When you are not connect to the input, even though you still have drivers installed, PowerPoint will dynamically create hyperlinks for websites you type into a slide.
