Build order window stays open all the time

Hi!


Is it possible to have Build order window open all the time? It closes every time after i set the order. That's very annoying. I miss Keynote 09's possibility to open all windows you need.


Kind regards,

Miran

I have never had this as an issue, the build order certainly remains open after closing and reopening Keynote for all versions from version 12.1 in Monterey to version 9.0 in High Sierra


Try resetting Keynote as follows:


  1. complete all of the following steps in the order listed:
  2. ensure you have a current backup of all your user files, saved to a separate drive
  3. close all applications
  4. uninstall Keynote; for this procedure to work, an application removal tool must be used, App Delete has a free trial and works for this procedure. It can be downloaded from the developer’s website here:  App Delete
  5. empty the Trash (Finder > Empty Trash)
  6. restart the Mac (Apple Menu > Restart);  Immediately after the Apple startup sound, press the shift key on the keyboard, release shift when the Apple icon appears. Start up will take longer than usual as the Mac is performing a software repair of the start up drive
  7. After the Mac is fully powered up, restart the Mac normally:   Apple Menu > Restart
  8. reinstall Keynote from the Mac App Store Application
  9. Restart the Mac again
