This was very helpful and thorough. Thanks for the tutorial, Devlin! I was creating everything on one layer filled with animations, buttons, images, etc. What a mess haha. This makes a lot more sense and can get my project organized.
Why when you hide base layer does it still show the big circle? Shouldn't it hide everything, isn't the base layer like the main layer? Also if you hide objects on other layers, but if you check that on all layers, isn't that a paradox, or does it just show you nothing? Also at 7:44 to just hide that one button, you're turning it off on a timeline but how does that make it disappear completely, if you're just hiding it on the timeline then it'll show up after a few seconds won't it? You show a timeline of 5 seconds does that mean the slide only lasts 5 seconds and then it'll show the button again? I gotta admit I'm totally lost on that.
This is great I like these videos. Granted I have to keep going back and restarting cuz I'm losing focus but that's not your fault Devlin I just have a poor attention span. I'm unable to get Storyline either I have to learn it to do e-learning work for my company but they won't buy it for us yet because we don't have the client jobs yet. :( I think the only critique I have of this series is that it would be nice to see an example of an actual storyline project, I don't think a client is going to request a project to just show and hide shapes, I get the feeling that these are building blocks for something else it would be nice to see what that something else is.

If you don’t mind me asking, what video software do you use to screenshare and record your videos? Is it Camtasia?
Good question! It’s OBS 😃
What is the difference between slide and layer
