Slide Layers Panel has disappeared in Storyline view
Hello,
Somehow the slide layers panel has disappeared from my storyline view. I've closed and restarted storyline, check the bottom pane for arrow triggers to turn it on and off again, and no luck. I've also searched forums and help topics about how to turn this back on. No luck.
Can someone please tell me how to turn this panel back on? I'm working on a big interactive slide and I can't access any of my layers without it.
Thanks.

The User Guide can be very useful. I particularly recommend this section.
This thread may also contain some useful ideas.
Personally, I would hate to see the ability to undock and move panes “fixed”. For me, it is almost a necessity for using SL, so I really appreciate it.
Arrrggggghhhh. I still can't open the layers panel. Triggers and Slide Properties are fine. NO LAYERS. And the deadline looming, of course.
Hi Stephen - if none of the solutions in this thread are helping and you are running out of time, perhaps you can put in a support ticket - https://articulate.com/support/contact/case. They usually respond really quickly.
If you don't have time to sort this out that way, here is another idea - what if you opened a new Storyline file (be sure to set the same story size) and imported all of the slides from the problem Storyline file into that new Storyline file? I bet the fresh file would show your layers. Here's a link to instructions for how to import sides from other Storyline projects: https://community.articulate.com/articles/articulate-storyline-360-user-guide-how-to-import-slides-from-other-storyline-projects
Hope one of these ideas works for you.
This remains an issue 11 years later in Articulate 360. First response in thread solves issue (if you're lucky enough to be able to find an edge of the layers panel that's come undocked).
Thanks, Belinda it works!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you! I am using multiple monitors so I had to minimize all of my screens to locate the disappearing panel.
