Trigger not working on swf file
Apr 05, 2016

I used swf for page curl animation from the link below in another thread.
https://community.articulate.com/discussions/articulate-storyline/using-next-previous-page-curl-swfs
The issue i'm facing is that trigger is not working on swf file in Storyline 2 [update 7]. "Jump to next slide when user clicks on swf file".If i use a transparent shape on top of swf file, the animation does not play as expected.Not smoothly.
I have tried converting it to gif animation but due to some error in swf file i couldn't convert it to gif.Please suggest a workaround.I really want to keep the animation (swf).I want it really quick.
Thanks.

You could add a layer to the slide that contains a hotspot. That hotspot could jump to next slide. Make sure the hotspot is smaller than the swf. Then add a mourse over trigger to the SWF to show the layer. Be sure to deselect restore on mouse leave. It is not ideal, but it will work.
Thanks for the tip. I'll try it out and let you know.
In meantime any other workaround will be appreciated.
