Button issue

Mar 31, 2015

I have a slide with 4 buttons that take the user to 4 different layers, but I don't want them to be able to move forward without visiting all 4 layers via each button. I created a "Done!" button to jump to the final slide. I only want the "done" button to appear once all 4 layers have been visited, but when I created the trigger and the conditions, it still didn't work. It is visible no matter what. I then tried hiding the layer and adding an additional trigger for the "done" button to change the state to "normal" once all 4 layers had been visited, but that didnt' work either. Any advice is helpful! I am new to Storyline (I have StoryLine 1 by the way) so this is probably a novice question. Thanks in advance!

Hi Natalie,

Have you created two states on the 'Done!' button? So that the state of the button changes to visible when the user has visited all slides?

If you are able to attach the file I might be able to have a look and help out!

Thank you so much for the quick reply! I did not create the states, so that makes sense that the trigger wouldn't recognize it! I will try that, and if it doesn't work, I will definitely attach the file if you are able to look at it. Thank you so much!!

Hi Natalie,

The built in buttons should have states created automatically and they'll behave as described here.

Thank you:) I made sure the states were there, but unfortunately the "done" button still does not show up even after all my layer buttons are visited.

Hi Natalie,

We're happy to take a look - as trigger order is crucial with things like this. You'll see how triggers are executed as described here. If you'd like to share the .story file here with us staff or the community can take a look.

Hi Christopher,

So, I'm still having trouble. I've attached just the slide that I'm having trouble with, along with the layers. If you are still able to take a peek I would appreciate it! Thank you so much!
