PowerPoint import automatically transitions

Good Day! I have imported several ppt presentations that do not have transitions set and when previewed in Storyline it automatically transitions and does not wait for a click on Next. I have one layer on each slide, only the triggers to move to next/last slide when user clicks next/previous. I have tried to set the trigger to the exact next slide but it still transitions on its own. I have gone through each scene and ensured that none is chosen in transitions for all slides. 

I would like to have the user click Next instead of it automatically transitioning. Any help would be appreciated!

  • Often when a PPT is imported into Storyline, the Slide Properties for "Slide advances" are set to "Automatically." That needs to be changed to "By User." 

    You can do that for all the slides at the same time in StoryView. Just select all of the slides, and then switch them to advance "By User" using the Slide Properties settings in the lower right.
