If you are in story view with your scenes expanded, you should be able to select all of them and then adjust the auto advance feature on the right plan near the bottom
sorry about that, I just looked at the issue you are having and if you are in a scene view and select all the slides then make a change under slide properties you are correct. Only the first slide is affected. However, if you go to story view, with the scene expanded and select multiple slides, then change it under the slide panel on the right, it will change all of them. I hope this helps.
Is there a way to find and delete triggers throughout a project in mass? I have inherited a project with a trigger on MANY slides to jump to next slide when timeline ends. I do not want that. Is there a faster way then deleting them one by one?
I'm happy to help! Deleting triggers can be done on a slide basis rather than a project basis. To remove multiple triggers on the Trigger Panel, hold down SHIFT on your keyboard and select the triggers. This will select multiple triggers and then simply, press the Delete button on the panel.

Hi Jim,

Thank you Joe. I'll try that.
And hope the "save" and zip file then translate to Saba this time. Thanks again.
Glad that Joe was able to pop in and assist you here Jim :)
When I Ctrl-A to select all, the Slide Properties are greyed out.
When I hold down the Shift button and select multiple slides, when I make a change under Slide properties, it only changes on the 1st slide selected.
Any other solutions?
Jim,

I already did each slide 1 by 1 but thanks.
I was in Story View - the 1st tab. And when I Ctrl-A, it still didn't work. I'm running Windows on a Mac, not sure if that's where the bug is.
But if I do hold down Shift and select multiple slides, that does seem to work for all slides selected this way.
Would be a great feature in the future though if you could do Ctrl-A and make changes in bulk that way.
Thank you.
You said: "And hope the "save" and zip file then translate to Saba this time. Thanks again."
How are you zipping? That may make a difference. Just saving with Save doesn't change the zipped file.
