I've been hung up on this question for a while now, hope you can help.
If you use the several of the built in slides in the Content Library, you will probably also have several masters. Do these masters increase the size of the project in any way?
I do create my own masters on occasion, but then confusion sets in since I prefer to have just one set of master slides.
Hi Tex, I hope you are well. Masters increase the size of the project and increase publish times, I try to only have one set of Masters, not always possible though.
Thanks Phil, good to hear from you. I guess it would be possible to copy selected master slides to create one Master? But then perhaps it will be impossible to delete what remains?
Managing Masters is a real pain and could be made much easier, I would rationalise as best you can, I only see issues when you start to get 10+ masters with lots of assets on.
Yes I seem to remember some years a request was made to Articulate to make the deletion of Masters a lot easier, but nothing became of it. Perhaps it's time to look into it further, as well as all the other wonderful things they are doing for us.
