Buttons inside of a Master Slide not working

[shanegoodhew]

I asked this question last week and now I can't seem to find it anywhere.

Anyways, I created a template for one of my programs as a Blank Master Slide that I will be using for every slide of the program. I used smart shapes as buttons and set up the rollover and down states as well. However when I exit the Master Slide view these buttons don't appear to be working. Is there any sort of trick to make master slide button work?

So I just started to break this down, piece by piece and it works if I have no more than 3 buttons on the Master Slide. Previously I had 5 buttons on the Master. If I add buttons 4 and 5 to the slide outside of the Master Slide view it works. So I guess my question is are there restrictions to what you can add to the Master Slide or a number of buttons? But now I am having rollover issues from the Master Slide .

You probably are using CP2017 and forgot to install the patch released a while ago. Check the version number, recent version is 10.0.1.285.

BTW editing a blank master slide is changing a theme, not a template. Have a look at:

What's in a Theme - a Template? - Captivate blog

Moreove be careful with editing the Blank master slide which needs to remain blank for PPT import and for software sims.

Yep, I am on 10.0.0.192. Thank you as well for the blog post.

It was a bug in your release, fixed with the patch.
