You need a condition on each of those or at least the first one, anything after a jump to trigger will not fire.
the simplest was is o use a t/f variable that is set to true on the slide you first jump to and then add a condition to jump to first slide if variable === false
Sorry you want to show a layer, then set the next button to show layer and then add a trigger on te layer to jump to slide when timeline of that layer ends
Your way works, but it's ind of confusing. The user click the next button of the player and on the next layer, he has to use a next button on the layer. also, the button does not fit in the slide that well.
No, if you want it on one press, do as Donna says one trigger on the next button one trigger on the lalayer next button shows layer, layer timeline trigger jumps to slide on timeline end one press two actions
You're not actually pressing the Next button "twice". You are just doing it once to show the layer. Then it should automatically jump to the next slide without pressing anything on layer as long as the trigger is set to jump when its timeline ends.
LOL.. just saw your answer PHIL.. I feel like a broken record. haha

Hello Guy,
If I am not mistaken, you cannot set the Next button to SHOW 2 things at the same time. (I may be wrong)
If the first trigger is to show a layer then you might just want to stick to that as the trigger for the next button. Meaning:
Next = show layer
Then you can add a trigger on the Layer itself to jump to the next slide when the Timeline of that layer ends.
Hope that makes sense.

I thought there would be another way.

We want the NEXT button to control user movement -
On Slide 1 from the Base Layer we want user to click on NEXT button
to reveal the second layer -
then click on the NEXT button to Jump to the Next slide -
when user clicks on NEXT button in the second layer -
it doesn't jump to the next slide -
Is there a way to make the NEXT button work from the second layer?
Hi Michael,
Welcome to the community.
I was uncertain if you wanted 2 layers in addition to the base layer or just 1, so I went ahead and made 2.
Created a number variable and called it NEXT.
Added a trigger that Adds 1 to the NEXT variable each time Learners click the Next button
Added a trigger to show layer 1 when Learners click Next if NEXT variable = 1
Added a trigger to show layer 2 when Learners click Next if NEXT variable = 2
Added a trigger to show Slide 2 when Learners click next if NEXT variable >2
Also, on Slide B I added a trigger to change the next variable=0 when the timeline starts, thinking you may want to use the variable again.
Please shout out with any questions.
Thanks Rebecca that works -
Good to hear
