Base slide objects appearing under layers

Sep 23, 2014

I know this is probably very simple to fix but I can't figure it out! I have my layers set to hide base layer objects but the buttons on the left side are showing underneath the layers.

Is it the timing of my triggers?

Hi Katie,

If you go to the Layers, and click on the "Gear" icon, you will see the option(s) for switching off the Base and Other layers.

Also, you can go to the slide you are on, and you will see the Base Layer showing at the bottom of the Timeline, Click the arrow to reveal all the objects, and you can selectively switch objects on and off.

Does that help - sorry cannot do an image at the moment.

Hmm.

I would have expected them not to show.

You can get round this by setting them from "Visited" to "Hidden" when they are clicked on, and they show as "Visited" when you go back to the Base Layer.

Someone may offer a better answer/explanation, but that's a workaround that seems to work. Confusing me now as to why this is the case.
