Button doubles on completed layer

Apr 09, 2013

Hello all,

I have a slide where I'm using layers. On the main slide, the user clicks on 5 buttons to go to other slides, then returns to the main slide.  When all 5 of the buttons have changed states to visited, I am displaying a layer that allows the user to continue with the course.  When all 5 of the buttons are changed to visited, however, the last button is doubling on the slide.  I've attached a screenshot of what is happening for clarification.  Anyone have any idea why this is happening?

Lee,

I think the issue may also be that the buttons are duplicated on the new layer.  If you want the user to not be able to click the buttons, but still be able to see them, you may want to consider one of two options.

  1. make the state of the buttons disabled vs. visited after the slides have been viewed.
  2. add a shape with a transparent fill over the buttons on the new layer.  This will prevent user from clicking on the buttons without changing their state.  But it must be a transparent fill.  It will not work with "no fill" 

Also, I would not duplicate the clipboard on the new layer.  Just add a white box with text over it.  This will save you some file size in the end

If you have any questions, please let me know.
