I've found a bit of a workaround for this that might help:

  1. Create a numeric variable that will act as a "Trigger" variable. I called mine "TRIGGER_HideLayer"
  2. In the Feedback master, add your hotspot or button. Add a trigger to it that will add 1 to the variable TRIGGER_HideLayer
  3. In every Slide layer that uses that feedback master, add a trigger: "Hide This Layer when TRIGGER_HideLayer changes"

Not sure if that's easier in your case. It's helpful for me since I want to have a lot of triggers on the Feedback Master's button. So re-creating the button with all its many triggers leads to many copies of the same triggers - which is bad for troubleshooting.

 

Note: using the Trigger variable trick is also useful if you do a lot of Javascript and want the JS to do more, such as show a layer, go to a slide, etc.
