pptx-python - Powerpoint always opens on master slide page

Question

I have an app that creates powerpoints. Everything goes well except that every time I want to open one of these powerpoints it opens it in the slide master view. This isn't necessarily a problem per se, but just annoying since I open a lot of these powerpoint files. Has anyone else encountered this? Any idea what this is due to?

This happens on both mac and windows.

I create a presentation from a template, generate the slides and then save it more or less like this:

self.prs = Presentation(
            self.template_path)
for c, slide in enumerate(self.data):
    self.generate_slide(slide)
self.prs.save(save_location)

Answer 1

I had this issue before, it was because the template slide was saved in the slide master view same as what Johnathon said.
