Automatic Advancement on PowerPoint Imort

Feb 16, 2017

Hello! I have imported a PowerPoint presentation into Storyline 2 and for some reason, the slides keep advancing on their own. I have tried to remove the trigger that I thought was doing it, but that did not seem to work.

The trigger that is on some of the slides, (I deleted the first five triggers) is "Jump to Next Slide when the timeline ends."

But even with those triggers gone, the slides are still advancing on their own.

All that to say, I want the slides to advance only when the user clicks the Next button, and ideally, I don't want to modify each slide, as that would be tedious for much longer PowerPoints.

If someone could help me figure this out, I would be forever grateful.

Thank you!

Hi Christi

when you import PPT slides they will be set to 'Advance by User.

If you open your file in Storyview CtrlA to select all slides, then in the bottom right hand corner (slide properties panel) you should be able to change the dropdown from 'Advance automatically' to 'By User' for all slides instead of having to do one by one
