I found out something strange (for nerds and technicians from Articulate only):
- Added a clearly visible object to the Master lay-out.
- Couldn't find the slides that should use this layout (according to Slide Master View there should be 7 (seven!) slides using this layout.
Nothing new so far ... - Saved the project file (.story).
- Changed the extension to ".zip".
- Unzipped the file.
- With Notepad++ searched for files with name of the layout in it.
- Found one file: slideLayout7.xml.
- One of the xml-items (sorry but I am not an xml-geek) is InternalG :
- Did a new file search with the string "26998a0c ....".
- Notepad++ finds 7 (seven!) xml-files with this reference.
- Opened these seven files to find out the slidenames.
- Opened these slides in Storyline.
- The Slide layout is visible on one of the layers! When I look which feedback layout is used there is no feedback layer selected.
- When I add a 'real' feedback layout to the layer the number of Master layouts decreases.
