Every once in a while people in this forum ask how to make the Next button in Storyline flash like the ones in Presenter.
I have figured out a neat way (if I do say so myself) of doing this in Storyline using Markers. I got the idea from James Kingsley who came up with a trick for turning the marker pulse off and on.
You could've also merely adjusted the timing of the active marker to appear later in the timeline. This keeps you from having to create so many other buttons, states, and triggers... one of many ways, really.

Nancy,
This is great, you may have come up with a solution that has been bothering me for quite some time.
I don't really use the markers in my courses, do you know if they work on the iPad?
Yup - they work on the iPad. (AMP and html5)
Awesome, thanks
Creative thinking get's us anywhere....
Good one
Thank you, Nancy, this effect is really nice and elegant.
I usually don't use markers, so this is a good way to start with them. And it's good to know that they work on the iPad.
What a neat trick! Love this idea, Nancy. Way to go!!
A great idea many thanks for sharing.

@Nancy, can you describe what the trick is since the screener is no longer available?
To be honest, I can’t remember what I did. If I had to guess I probably did something like the following:
That is probably what I did but I am not sure if this still works because it was 5 years ago and Storyline has changed a lot since then.
