Missing base layer buttons on layers

Hello, I recently finished a project, the layout and function of which I was reasonably happy. I wanted to use it as a template for a new project, so I started a new project and imported the slides for modification. The beginning slide has navigation buttons that are intended to show/hide layers. Visibility is locked on the base layer but the buttons do not appear. I don't know what happened, it was working perfectly on the original version, now it's not working. Any ideas? Attached is a copy of the slide...

William...right click on your layers on the stage (away from your other objects) and select "Format Background". It looks like you have a "Picture or texture fill" set, so that fill is covering up your base layer. Change this to "No Fill" and I think you'll be good.
Duh, my bad! Thanks for picking up on it, the project is now back on track!
No worries. That second set of eyes can be a lifesaver!
