Objects disappearing at end of timeline, even though go til end

Hi,

I keep getting this problem (I'm making my first storyline project). Everything will be working fine, and then I make edits to a part of slide and when I go to preview, the text, images, etc disappear from the slide right at the end. (I currently have a button set up to change from state of hidden to normal when timeline ends becuase I have audio). So, the Continue button shows, but things that used to also stay, now disappear. 

When I go to the timeline, it looks like everything is all lined up at the end, so I dont know why the disappear -- I've had to just re-do entire slides - but maybe there is something going on that I'm not aware of. Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated!

  • Thanks Jacqui for linking to the other thread where you were discussing this with Leslie. I see that she shared information in regards to the existing bug submitted to our QA team and as she mentioned we don't currently have a timeframe to offer in regards to that behavior and set up. 

  • Glad that this thread was able to assist you as well Mohamed :) Thanks for popping in to share.

    I'm newer to storyline, started using it in July 2017, but this has been a constant issue. It would be nice if the layers would snap to the endpoint. It is very easy to have them a tiny bit offset and having to resize to look closely isn't really the best solution. Thx.

    Not really, just a blank slide. I found the solution on another thread. Right-Click on the layer and select "show until end". This will fix the layer that is offset.

  • I am having this issue. I made two cards on my slide, you click one and it flips and you see the back (which is a layer) then you click the other card and it shows the back ( a 2nd layer). It worked for a bit but suddenly it started to have one of the cards disappear when you click the next slide. I made the back of the card in each layer to show always and there is no exit animation. I've been looking at this for a half hour or more and can't find where I went wrong.
