This is not the old first bullet not appearing. I have a few slides that none of the bullets (numbered or graphic) appear when published. They appear when previewed. These are faded lists and no other animation on the screen.
Hi Greg! Can you give me a bit more information about what Update you are currently utilizing and how you are publishing and viewing this content (does it happen in Flash and HTML5)?
I am using Presenter Update 4. I am publishing using Scorm 1.2. This happened in 3 -4 slides. I deleted the bullets and added them back in and they published fine. My confidence with Presenter '13 is low. I've had so many problems. This project is a rebuild because it originated in '09 and didn't translate well when updated with '13. So, I'm starting over. HUGE amounts of time spent on this kind of stuff i.e., volume in Engage has to be reduced by 40%, etc.
Thanks for the details Greg. First, let me mention that responding via e-mail adds your signature to your post. Not sure if you need to pop in and edit that :)
So, are you able to re-create this issue or it just happened to the upgraded project?
The only issue that I've seen reported on this has been related to HTML5 with animation.
Actually this is no longer an updated product due to the problems with the conversion. I rebuilt the product from scratch. I created a new PowerPoint presentation with new slide masters, etc. I did copy/paste slide content.
Problems with bulleted text are a very old problem with Articulate and are likely more to do with Flash.
The solution is simple. Dump them. Stop using them. They are widely reviled in almost every design standard in existence.
If you need to set off text, do it with something else. If you have an idiot customer who must have bulleted text, convert the image to a png and manage it that way.

Hi there.
I am using Presenter Update 4. I am publishing using Scorm 1.2. This
happened in 3 -4 slides. I deleted the bullets and added them back in and
they published fine. My confidence with Presenter '13 is low. I've had so
many problems. This project is a rebuild because it originated in '09 and
didn't translate well when updated with '13. So, I'm starting over. HUGE

The bullet issues happened with the NEW product.
I understand Greg and thanks for the update. I am unable to reproduce this, so if you are able, please send along for us to take a look at.

I'm seriously going to consider that. Thank you.
