Hi Tanudja,

I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing these issues as well! Whenever you insert an object into a slide like audio or video, the timeline automatically updates to those items you inserted.

If you copy a shape or textbox from one slide into another, it will take the corresponding timeline length as well.

I appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts, and I will add them to our report. We'll be sure to jump back in here with any changes or updates.

    HI Ren,

    That must be it - the copying of the shape brings in the original slide's longer timeline! I will keep an eye out to see if it happens any other time but I think that's solved it.

    Thanks so much - was driving me nuts not knowing why -at least now I can predict it and cut it off at the pass as they say.

    Cheers,
