Hiding a scene from the menu without renumbering the remaining menu items
Oct 04, 2017
I am working on an 8 lesson learning module with each lesson in a separate file. The files need to be separated due to test questions administered after each lesson. I want each lesson number to correspond to the menu numbering. For example, lesson 3 have menu numbering that begins with 3, 3.1, 3.2, etc. I have added empty scenes in front of the actual lesson's scene to force the numbering in story view; however, I cannot figure out how to remove the blank scenes from the menu and keep the lesson numbering intact.
I have attached a screen shot of the lesson and am hoping someone will have a solution. In short I want "1 Untitled Scene" and "2 Untitled Scene" gone from the menu without changing the other numbering.
Thanks,
Liz

Hi Liz!
Try using the Delete Heading button--it's the one that looks like a trash can. That button will remove items from the player, but it will not change the scene number. Let me know if that's helpful!
Alyssa,
Thank you for the recommendation. Unfortunately, I've tried that and when I delete the extra headings, it changes the numbering for the last lesson to 1, 1.1, 1.2, etc.
Any ideas?

Hmm, that's odd, Liz. What version of Storyline are you using?
Alyssa,
It looks like I have Articulate Storyline 2 update 12: 1705.520.

Hmm, that's odd. You should be able to remove items from the menu without the numbering changing. Mind if I have a closer look at your file, Liz? You can attach it in a new thread comment, or send it to me privately through this form.
I've got your file, Liz! I'll take a closer look and pop back in here as soon as I have more to share. ☺️
Hi again, Liz! I just responded to you via your support case. We can keep the conversation going in that email!
Hello,
I know it's 2 years later but I am having the same issue. Any chance you figured out how to fix it?
Hi Sarah!
Thanks for checking back! Have you tried using the "delete heading" feature in the Player Properties and then using the "Automatic numbering" feature?
Here's what that looks like:
