Zoom Region Hiding Objects

Joanne,

Thanks for taking a look at my project.

The reason you can't view/select the main background on the slide is because it was created using the record screen feature that captures all your actions and inserted as step-by-step slides. None of the backgrounds created by Storyline when you record your screen are accessible on the timeline. They just act as immovable background images if you insert them as step-by-step slides.

I tried your idea of copying the image and moving it to another slide but Storyline won't let me copy the mouse cursor from the timeline to another slide. You were right though. If I create another slide that wasn't generated by the screen recording, the zoom function works perfectly. I think I'll have to export the image and do all the instructions on a previous slide and just have a short step-by-step demo slide afterward to make it appear as if it is one slide.
