Layers not revealed
Jun 02, 2014
Hi All:
Just wanted to post a discovery I made that might help others:
I was repeatedly having problems with layers (esp. in hotspots) showing up when clicked or triggered but losing my base layer. I reviewed my layer settings and triggers and everything checked out.
Then I realized that I had altered the background of my layers so that they were white and no longer transparent; this blocked my base layer content from being revealed. So if you can't see your base layer, make sure that you go to Design>Background Styles. Then select "no fill". That could help.

And make sure the "Hide objects on base layer" box is not checked in the Slide Layer Properties dialog.
I appreciate a lot for putting this hint here, Lisa. You saved my file. I used a lot of layers and variables and accidentally put a white fill for all of them and wondering why I can't see the basic layer anymore. I thaught my file is being crashed, but you saved it.
Thank you so much

Glad that this thread helped you out Mandana! Let us know if you need anything else.
Thank you so much. It was not the first time I found the answer of my question in E-Learning Heroes, and I am sure not the last one.
Cheers
