Object simply vanishes when resized

I discovered this glitch today.

Video clip here:

https://360.articulate.com/review/content/930125fb-87c1-4858-b95b-4535ca31132c/review

At the 30 second mark as I drag the item (simple shape with text that I then delete)  by the bottom-right handle, which is on the pasteboard, the object disappears and the screen centres, or the screen centres and then the object disappears.

Just letting you know this glitch is there.

  • Ok. Just did another test and it is a shape with States, as can be seen in the clip. The shape has a transparent background (No Fill) and even if the shape remains fully on the slide, when I delete the text it vanishes once I click out of shape.

    If I put a colour fill and delete the text, the shape remains onscreen with the states. And if I set the fill to 100% transparency it will remain on the slide.

    So it seems to be with transparent objects. If I delete the content of the Normal state, the object disappears.

    It's probably just me.

    I'm always doing something stupid.

  • Hello DiarmaidCollins,

    Thanks for bringing this to our attention! 

    I can't replicate this behavior using a new project with simple images, which leads me to believe that a combination of multiple triggers and slide objects could be causing the glitch. Would you be willing to share a copy of your project file here or in private by opening a support case so I can take a closer look at how the slide was set up to identify the cause of the glitch? We'll delete it when we're done testing!
