Why are my scenes backwards

Nov 12, 2015

I created several scenes and then added triggers so learners can jump from scene to scene. When I created the scenes they were in order. After i went back and added the triggers, the scenes were backwards.  Does anybody know why this happened and/or how to fix it?

Getting everything to show in the story view is pretty complicated. We're lucky it works as well as it does.

That said, the only problem it causes is that is it slightly confusing for the developer. The location of the slides and scenes are not related in any way to anything, except for the algorithm's best effort to put the flow lines on the page in a form that might be possible to follow. The problem is that some of us are are pretty sequentially-minded and it hurts us to see them in a less than straight line.  If, for example the first scene is to the right of the second scene we are irritated, but no damage is done to the flow of our project.

If you change the flow of the project, you can see the slides and scenes change places in story view, but not in the presentation.

Bottom line: It doesn't hurt anything, and there is no way you can influence it.
