Web object works on a slide but not on a slide layer
Hi everyone. I've been stucked with adding web objects to layers.
The Web Object works perfectly when I place it directly on a separate slide. I can also open the HTML file directly from its folder and it works normally.
However, when I place the same Web Object inside a slide layer, it doesn’t work after publishing.
I’ve also tried extending the Web Object’s timeline so that it stays on the layer, but this didn’t solve the problem.
Has anyone experienced this issue with Web Objects on slide layers? Is there a setting or workaround I’m missing?
Thanks!

Quickest way to troubleshoot if it’s something in your code causing the issue is to put a throwaway web object on that same layer, just a folder with an index.html containing <h1>hello</h1> or something similar, and publish. If that shows up, Storyline and the layer are fine and the problem is inside your HTML. If i was to guess I’d say something in you HTML is measuring itself on load but can’t see layer dimensions…
