Can't interact with objects in slide master
No, you cannot. Buttons on the master slide will not be accessible or visible in triggers to perform actions on another slide. However, they can be used to trigger actions for objects on the base layer and other layers within the master slide. Alternatively, you can use the solution at the top of this thread to show an object on another slide using buttons on the master slide and variables.
Hi Nedim,
In your example the buttons are on the feedback master ... how are you setting the feedback master to show on the main timeline?
The Feedback Master acts as a layout for layers. As long as there is at least one layer above the base layer and a trigger on the base layer to show that layer, the content in the Feedback Master will be displayed. A great example is a question slide with Correct and Incorrect layers. By default, all other layers use the Blank layout found in the Feedback Master. But you can always create your own custom layout within the same Feedback Master, allowing you to include common objects that will appear on all layers using that custom layout. The bottom line is that the objects on the Feedback Master won't appear on the base layer unless another layer above the base layer is triggered to show. Hopefully, this explanation makes sense.
