1) When "demoting" slides so that they are subordinate to the slides above them, the numbering in the left Menu pane displays the numbering sequentially (e.g., 4, 5, 6, 7...); however, if you look in the Preview pane to the right, and when you publish, the numbering actually changes to 4, 4.1, 4.2 , 4.3 etc. ... Is there a way to change this? The desired numbering would actually be as it was in '09 with just the regular sequential format (not the .1, .2, .3 format)
The format in Studio '13's player is how you described. The slides, when demoted will reflect the slide number.sub-slide number. I believe this is by design for the new version. There isn't a way to change this, that I can see. However, if you'd like the option to do so, I would recommend sending your feedback to our development team through a feature request.
I do also see what you were referring to with the preview pane - it does reflect the numbers correctly, but the menu list on the left does not:
I don't see a report on this yet. I will communicate this information with our Quality Assurance department to see if this is also as designed, or something we can look at changing in the future.
Thank you for this response/confirmation, Christine! It does seem as though the inconsistency between the tow views may be a bug, or perhaps simply an oversight.
Anyway, I have submitted a feature request to have the option to change the number formatting.

Hi Mario,
I completely agree and I've just finished submitting a bug report/investigation request for the numbering.
Thank you for sending in that request, as well - I appreciate it!
Have a great Friday,
Christine
