Image placeholder should be behind the two text placeholders. How?

Hello Storyline developers,

In the attached slide the image (placeholder) should be behind the two text placeholders and not in front of it. In the master layout everything looks good, but somehow in the normal view it goes wrong. Does anybody know what I can do? I already recreated this slide three times and don't want to do it a fourth time.

Thanks in advance,

- Verhoeckx

 

  • When I inserted a new slide with the 1/3-2/3 layout, the picture placeholder was below the text placeholders. 

    I don't know why re-applying the layout to your original slide doesn't put the items back in order. However, it's pretty easy to drag the picture object to the bottom of the Timeline. 

  • Thanks!

    And yes, I also found out that the order in de slide view is sometimes different than the order in the layout view. Maybe the layers in the slide view have been moved earlier and Articulate Storylines tries to keep that order (even after a reset of the slide)?

      Hi Jeroen!

      Glad to see Judy has been helping you!

      Testing your file in the current version of Storyline 360, I also had the same results as Judy. When inserting a new slide with the 1/3-2/3 layout, the picture placeholder appeared below the text placeholders on the timeline. Without having to make any manual adjustments.

      Would you be comfortable sharing a screen recording of how you applied the layout and added the picture so I can try to replicate the behavior you are encountering? Feel free to share it here in the discussion or privately through a support case. Looking forward to hearing from you!

  • Hi Steven,

    The next time I find a similar issue, I will try to make a video recording!
