Hey All, please help me. I've been asked to do some changes to the storyline created by someone else. I can see lots of annoying green check marks in random slides, which purpose (I guess) was to show which tabs/texts have been already done/read. Could you please advise how to remove them? There is no 'result slide' there. Thanks a lot. Kinga
Without seeing the file, I can only guess that these checkmarks may be part of custom states. You can check the states by selecting an object on the slides and click the States tab at the bottom. You can then edit these states, e.g. remove the checkmarks.
Hi Michael, thank you so much for your response. Regrettably, I cannot share the material with you as it is confidential. I have one base layer slide and five slide layers. You need to click on the icon on the base layer to access one of the slide ones. When you read them, you can see the checkmarks on the base layer. I did follow your instruction but there are no states at all. Please advise. Thank you. Kinga
Then maybe the checkmarks are individual objects on the baselayer that are initially set to Hidden. Check your timeline and the layers. I would expect to see triggers on the layers that change the state of the objects. One other option is that these icons are located on the master slide. I would check the master as well.

Hi Kinga,
Wanted to pop in and mention that if you'd like our team to take a look privately, you are welcome to share here.

Hey Everyone, Robert's help was great. All is sorted not. Thank you so much Robert and the Team!!
Yay! So glad that Robert was able to help you out with your project file.
Locked objects on the timeline were the culprit it seems.
