Stage displays all slide assets anywhere playhead is located in Captivate 2019 timeline

Question

I have possibly a simple question here, but where ever I place my placehead in the timeline (multiple assets on slides timed with the audio) all the assets are visible all the time. This makes it very difficult to edit.

I have been using Captivate 2019 for awhile now and just recently it started doing this. Is there a setting messed up somewhere? Totally confused.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled 2019 already.

I think you are perhaps mistaken. This is the default behaviour for Captivate, and has always been the same through all versions. You simply may not have noticed the behaviour until you found it annoying.

If you don't want to see certain assets on the stage, all you need to do is click the small 'eye' icon on the object's timeline layer. This makes that object invisible when editing but will still display the object at runtime.
