Dear Simon Breslav,
I completely agree with you.
This is an essential feature for building more robust PowerPoint add-ins. I am facing the same issue; I would like to add attributions to images I insert into slides, but there is currently no way to link them to a hyperlink, add alternative text, or include a comment. These functionalities are already available in Excel and Word, yet they are missing from PowerPoint.
Adding support for setting hyperlinks on text and images in the PowerPoint JavaScript API would be a significant improvement, making it much more capable and aligned with the other Office applications.
Thank you for raising this request, and I truly hope Microsoft considers implementing it.
Best regards,
Mariangeles Codispoto.
