Slide Masters Re-ordering?
Aug 27, 2016
Is it possible to change the order of the slide masters? I've created an entirely new custom set of slide masters with the goal of making a set of click-and-go templates for my client, and it seems I cannot control the order the slide masters appear after they are created.
I would like to reorder them so development is more intuitive (e.g., the course starter layout is displayed first, then the section starter layout, then title only, title and content, two content, etc. until the course assessment layout and course completion layout.
I realize I can copy an existing master and then strategically choose where to paste it, but that is time consuming when a client decides this will be a "value-add" when the project is nearly completed. And copying and pasting at that point also means going to each slide and altering the layout so it is safe to delete the slide master that was originally designated.

Hi Brad!
Great question and not sure that I've seen that asked before. I'm not aware of a way to do so and would just be sure to name them so that they are intuitive.
I would encourage you to share your thoughts with our product development team here.
Thanks, Leslie. I've submitted the feature request.
Thanks Brad.
Brad,
I have the same question. Did you ever get a response on how to do this?
Hi Deanna,
It's still a feature request at this time, but I'd love for you to share more on how this would help your course development too. You can share the specifics here in ELH, or send along as a feature request to our product team!
Thanks, I submitted a feature request.

The ability to reorder the slides in the slide master would be really helpful when you have course tracks and you want to be able to organize them.
Thanks to Karin and all the others who have cast your vote here! We've still got our eye on this request. And in case you're wondering, here's how a feature idea becomes a new feature in Storyline. 😊

Being able to reorder would help when I develop a master later in the process when I discover how much it will help keep things organized and prevent incorrect edits.
I had already commented on this thread.

Any progress on this? I too would find it helpful to be able to reorder slide master slides. I can't think far enough ahead to which ones I'll use most so I would get them created in the right order as suggested in a response. It's been 6 years since the original request.... anything?
Hi, Mikki.
I don't have any updates to share for this feature request yet, but I'll be sure to come back when we have news, as this discussion is linked to the report.
You can keep an eye on our feature roadmap here.
We still NEED THIS!

Seven years later and we are still waiting for this feature to be available.
Highly suggest it, Articulate!
I am surprised that this was asked 7 years ago, a lot of people want this, including myself, a feature request was created, but it is still not settled. What is the status?
Hi, Chris!
Thanks for reaching out about this request. Currently, I don't have news on this, but we’ll update this discussion if this feature makes it on our feature roadmap. If you need any help in the meantime, please let us know here or privately in a support case!
As a new user of Storyline, I am surprised this feature is not in here. That would be super useful for large projects.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us, Stephen! I've added your voice to this request. We'll be sure to update this thread with any news in the future!
Hope that you enjoy exploring Storyline 360! Let us know if any other questions come up! 🎉
