Can slide layers inherit properties from the base layer?

Mar 20, 2014

I have a single slide with seven layers, one base and six slide layers all using the same template.  Is there a way to link or inherit content that repeats in all slides?  Such as adjusting a font or background color on a tab within the base layer will be inherited to all the slide layers within the slide.

Hi Thomas and welcome to Heroes! 

If there is content that you'd like to appear on your base layer and on the individual slide layers you can choose to show it all using the individual layer properties and unchecking "hide base layer objects" or within the timeline of each slide layer you could choose to unhide individual elements within the base layer by clicking on the eye icon. 

If you'd like properties to carry over to all your layers, you may want to look at adjusting your slide masters and feedback layers to include those elements across your project.
