Slides Not Connecting To Slide Master

Hi, 

 

I'm trying to create a progress bar on my course using the Menu.Progress variable, however when I add anything to the master slide, like a progress bar rectangle, it doesn't pull through on any of my other slides linked below. 

I'm wondering if it's the way the course pulled through from PPT as it created multiple master slides but I deleted them all and edited them so they were all under 1 master. I created a separate test version using draft slides and it worked perfectly which is how I've noticed the difference. 

Does anyone have any advice? I've attached a screenshot, the green line is what I'm trying to add to the course. 

Thanks

      Hello ehawkins,

      Happy to help!

      You may have the green line placed in the background, and this could result in the object being covered by other objects, depending on how they are ordered in your timeline. In this example, an orange slide should be visible on all Slide Master layouts, but it isn't visible on one layout because there is an object blocking it from view. 

       

      Please try moving the green line to the top of the timeline to see if this fixes the issue. If it does not, please share a copy of your project file here or privately by opening a support case so we can examine how your Slide Master is set up. We'll delete it when we're done testing!
