Tabs disappear after I delete a slide?
Hello,
I'm working on a project where it makes sense for me to copy and paste slides from one module to a different one frequently. The main reason is that I changed a lot of things on the layout for one of the modules and want to transfer that over to the other ones instead of redoing all of the slides, so I copy the slides from my "master" module and paste them on the module I'm working on. Then, when I delete the original slide from the module I'm working on, the tab open on the menu bar from my "master" module gets deleted as well. It's really frustrating to have to go back to Story View and find the next slide I need to copy over instead of being able to just click over to the next tab, especially with the number of slides I'm using.
Does anyone have a solution to this? Let me know if I'm not making sense - it's a weird problem to explain.
Thanks!

Hi Ashley,
Sorry, I'm not explaining very well. When I delete a slide, a tab also gets deleted. It's always the tab furthest to the right and it doesn't matter what slide I delete (whether it was from that module or not). I can't figure out how to do a screen recording within Storyline, so I took some screenshots to hopefully help me be a little more clear!
Hi Amanda,
I'm not sure I'm following - but if you're deleting the slides, I would also expect the tab you see when opening slides from story view to also be removed. Also, instead of copying and pasting slides from one file to another, we'd recommend following the method described here to import the slides.
