Media inside of Markers disappearing

Oct 17, 2012

Is this a bug?  I keep having pictures or video I've placed inside of markers disappear.  I don't mind so much for the pictures, but the video is one video that I have to cut up every time it does this (which takes forever for some reason).  I had hoped they'd reappear in the published file, but no luck.

Ashley,

For images, I have experienced what you describe when I used the Change Picture option in the Picture Tools > Format tab. If I want to swap out a picture in a marker, I instead use Marker Tools > Format > Media > Delete Media, and then I import a new picture using Marker Tools > Format > Media > Picture from file.

I haven't had the need to put a video in a marker but I imagine the same workaround will work for that media type as well.

Hope that resolves the issue for you.

Hi Ashley & Steve,

Thanks for the information.  I was able to reproduce the issue on my side with both images and video.  We'll address that in the next update.

Quick note:  The issue occurs after you use the change picture option in media, save the file & then reopen it.  For videos, the issue happens after you edit the video, save, close, and then reopen the file.
