Embedded PPT text and images not appearing, or appearing suddenly at wrong time
I am driving myself crazy trying to figure this out, and so far have come up with nothing. Probably spent 10-15 development hours trying to solve this - - and can't. Please if anyone can help...
Using Vista (but getting same problem if I bring saved project files over to my XP box), Studio '09 etc.. I create timed text or graphic images to appear, or really any type of animation, in the Presenter published project. Published output is set to automatically advance each slide with no user prompting required. And this is what I get:
a) the text or images do not appear at all, when each new slide begins
b) appear ONLY after I "jog" the FF tab (albeit ruining it for the user by that point) - or -
c) sometimes if I 'reset' the slide (meaning mouse-click the slide from within the left navigation area), the prescribed sequence finally plays itself out OK
I have tried the remedy of starting over with "fresh" PPT slides, and bringing over the text/graphics objects, and re-naming, re-saving, re-publishing, but that didn't help...
For the record, I had worked on a project the better part of two years and never had these issues. Then I step away for a few months, and return to - -
Can someone please shed some light on this? I really am feeling lost.
Thank you,
Brandon
