Story View Slides Position Glitch - Slide Order Does Not Respect Numbering

Thanks, Sandeep. On the TOC slide, I followed your tip and deleted the existing shapes (pseudo buttons) and added them in order, then added the triggers in order. After this in the Story View, the slides were in a logical order. However, as soon as I started messing with jump to triggers on other slides, the positions of the slides randomly changed. I deleted all the triggers that involved jumping to other slides, dragged the slides into the correct positions, then added triggers again. The positions are respecting my wishes for now, but I suspect, they'll randomly change when I add or edit triggers for other things.  This approach (copying and pasting each shape one-by-one) took way longer before when I copied and pasted groups of shapes in a logical order.

It's a time-waster for me why the visual position of slides in Story View will change based on the order in which shapes/buttons on another slide were added. As I mentioned before, this wouldn't be as big a deal, except that it directly affects how an editor can page or click through thumbnails in the left panel in Story View, especially in branched scenarios, This can lead to errors in triggers that are harder to troubleshoot in Story View because the slides are not in a logical order and cannot be forced to remain in that logical order when I drag them into place.
