Hiding and unhiding buttons

Nov 20, 2013

Hi,

I have created a course that ends with a menu allowing the learner to jump back to different sections to review before moving to the final quiz.  I would like to add a button on the last slide in the section reviewed so that the user can jump back to the review menu but keep it hidden while the learner goes through the course the first time.  I tried to put the button in the hidden state and added a trigger that changed the state to normal when the user clicks the next button, but than didn't work. What am I doing wrong? Thank you, thank for any suggestions!

Sounds like you may need to use a True/False variable to control the state of the button so that it remains hidden until a certain condition is reached i.e. the slide is visited for a second time? So something along the lines of:

Change State of button x to normal

When Timeline starts (of the slide or the button)

On the condition that = true

You'll need to add a trigger to the slide so that the true/false variable changes from false to true when the user clicks the Next button

There may be a better way of doing this however...
