How to turn off Placeholders

When I delete an image it leaves a placeholder and I have to delete twice. How do I turn placeholders off?

I am on Captivate 2019.

That means there was a master slide which had an image placeholder. Edit the master slide and delete the placeholder there. Personally I almost never use image placeholders at all, just placeholders for text shapes or captions.

There are no visible objects on the Master Slide and here is nothing on the Master Slide. When I add a slide or for that matter on any slide using that Master Slide I get place holders for text and images. Very annoying, frustrating.

Really? Are you sure about that? Placeholders always are inherited from master slides. Unless … maybe you started from a template file (cptl)?  Which theme are you using? Maybe that theme is corrupted, or not created in this version of Captivate?

You can Hide the Placeholder for Desktop and tablets:

@media (min-width:1025px) and (min-width:1281px) {

::-webkit-input-placeholder { /* WebKit browsers */
color: transparent;
}
:-moz-placeholder { /* Mozilla Firefox 4 to 18 */
color: transparent;
}
::-moz-placeholder { /* Mozilla Firefox 19+ */
color: transparent;
}
:-ms-input-placeholder { /* Internet Explorer 10+ */
color: transparent;
}

textarea::-webkit-input-placeholder { /* WebKit browsers */
color: transparent;
}
textarea:-moz-placeholder { /* Mozilla Firefox 4 to 18 */
color: transparent;
}
textarea::-moz-placeholder { /* Mozilla Firefox 19+ */
color: transparent;
}
textarea:-ms-input-placeholder { /* Internet Explorer 10+ */
color: transparent;
}

}
