Slide master customization problems - bullets

Jun 03, 2019

On a master layout slide I want the text to be bulleted, so I applied that through the formatting tab. Bullet shows up when the box is active, but when I click out of the placeholder box, it reverts back to unbulleted text.

Other changes seem to stick, like changing the width of the placeholder text box. It's just the bulleting that won't seem to work. 

I did turn off preserve and renamed the master, I tried inserting a new layout and recreating from scratch with new placeholders. Still reverts. What am I doing wrong?

Hi Carol!  Slide masters will not keep bullet formatting, and that'll have to be set up on the individual slides themselves. You can always share your thoughts with us on this in the form of a feature request here.  I know with Articulate 360 it's been mentioned before by some other users, and our team does evaluate all the feature requests that come in, and prioritizes them based on several different factors. If you are willing to lend your voice to the other authors who have made the same request, I know they would appreciate it!
