I am trying to remove items from the focus order in my slide master. I was able to remove some items, but the item "Slide Master - Line" is listed in the focus order but not on the slide master. I have attached two screen shots. I am sure that I am missing something.
In addition to Carolyn's suggestion, you can start by looking at which layout the slide is using. In Apply Layout in the Home tab, you’ll see the layout is highlighted in the dropdown.
Take a look at the slide and timeline in the Slide Master and deleting the line there. If you don’t see the line, feel free to attach your file, and I’ll take a look!
Also, I wanted to welcome you to E-Learning Heroes! 😊
Thank you. I am using the illuminate slide master. I can see some lines in the timeline, but when I right click on them, accessibility is not one of the choices that I have. I have attached a file. Thank you so much for offering to look!
Hi Stacey, That is because the lines on the master are hidden, not removed (see attached image). If you go back to the first master slide, make the lines visible, then delete them, you'll be able to remove the lines from the focus order. :)

Hi Stacey, Try looking at the first slide in the master series.

Thank you so much, Carolyn! I would not have figured that out.
I'm glad I could be of help!
