Duplicating layers copies over top layer
Jun 05, 2018
I am having this issue with duplicating layers when it randomly overwrites the top layer and if I undo the change (Ctrl+Z) the top layer retains the name of the duplicated slide (but its original content). This name-change is irreversible with 'undo'.
I wonder if anyone else experiences this?
The issue might be related to having close to a 100 layers on one slide, but still quite weird. And there is no consistency to it, except it seems to happen more often the second time I duplicate a layer after saving the file or starting storyline. Very rarely on the first duplication.

Hi Oskari. That is weird. Could you take a screencast of what you're seeing? If you have Storyline 360, a Peek is the quickest way!
I'd also love to be able to test out one of your files - I'm certain I don't have one with 100 layers! ☺️ We don't limit what you do in Storyline, so I want to be sure that we can document this behavior if it is related to a high number of layers.
Thanks!
Hey Oskari, this happens to me a lot as well in 360, even with just 3 layers.
Have not found a fix yet.
Hey Brett! Do you happen to have a sample file you can share? We have yet to be able to replicate this on our own, but if there's a bug happening here, we want to know about it!
I can make one for you, but I might also look at creating a screen capture as well if you are unable to recreate.
That sounds great, Brett. We'll be here when you're ready to share!
