Can I Import a Master Slide?
Aug 06, 2012
Hello Heroes,
For some reason, I'm having an issue importing a Master Slide. I created a navigation setup on one file to import into a completed project. I saved the blank slide as a .template with the Master Slide altered with nav buttons and other objects. The first one I created, called navigation, worked just fine when I go to import it. However, when I created inside navigation, it always comes up blank. I saved this as a .template too, and when I go to import the file from Start > Import > Storyline > then browse for the file, it always comes up blank.
Am I doing something wrong here? It worked once and now it didn't on the other. I'll attach the templates, maybe I didn't save something correctly? This is my first time playing with the Master Slide feature in Storyline, so there's a high probability its user error.
Thanks for your assistance,
Jesse.

Here's the second file:
Hi Jesse - Can you attach your story files as well?
Jesse - I'm able to import and apply your navigation.storytemplate.
The other template file (insidenav.storytemplate) appears blank for me. Was that just a new story file saved as a template? Or is there some content in that template, too?
No content, I was just testing the layouts on a Master Slide. But, when I click on the View tab, and go to Master Slide, the layout I created isn't there. I was trying to see if I could just create a template for a menu system that I could then import into an existing .story file.
Can you try this, first. After you import your storytemplate file, go to Insert > New Slide > Templates > and select your navigation template.
Then try applying that slide layout to your slides.
Okay, I wasn't looking in the right spot. Thanks!
Jesse
NP, Jesse. Glad everything is working, now.
