Sorry I can't help John — hopefully someone else can.

I created a new project and imported the slide in - same behaviour I can't preview and I also can't publish it.  It flicks the screen as though it is publishing, then returns to the Publish dialog box.  When I look into the output folder I don't get the html files to view it just three folders.

It may  be my instance of SL1 but I have opened other .story files this morning and worked on them so don't think so.

Hello John!

I was able to download and open the file as well. The layers were not set to resume to initial state upon revisiting.

Here is the rule of thumb with the revisits set to automatically decide: If the slide contains just simple objects and audio but no interactivity, Storyline will revisit the slide at the beginning of the slide’s timeline. However, if the slide contains any interactive elements, such as buttons or any other object that includes a visited/selected state, Storyline won't reset the slide.

I updated the file and it seems to be working now with replaying the layer.
