Can't add "selected" variable
Oct 15, 2019

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to adjust another person's file, and I'm trying to figure out why the variable for "darkblue_selected" isn't showing up as the other variables are. Essentially, I am trying to get the pie slice changed when a user picks a colour, but for some reason, I can't select "darkblue_selected" (highlighted in the blue box). Does anyone have an idea how I can get it to appear? What am I missing?
Thanks very much!!
Best,
Joanna

You seem to be missing the variable for darkblue
which is why it's not avaiable to select in a trigger like the others
Hi Wendy,
Thanks for your response!
Yes, I did try and add the darkblue variable, but it did not react in the same way the other variables did. Basically, it wouldn't behave in the same way, so I am wondering if I am missing the connection...
This variable had not been created. I added it and it now shows up, see attached file.
You need the variable darkblue_selected
then you need the triggers against every timeslot just like all the other triggers for each colour slice
Hi all, thank you for your help! My apologies for the delay in my response...I ended up getting a bad cold and have not been working.
I've built upon Michael's file and added the trigger for the slices to turn dark blue when it is selected, copying from the other triggers for other colours. Unfortunately, it's still not working. I feel like the variable "darkblue_selected" is not connecting with anything. Is there something I am missing?
I was able to get this working by choosing a different type of condition from the other colours. I added darkblue's rectangle state is selected instead of darkblue_selected = true, and this worked! Not sure why the conditions are different considering I just copy and pasted mostly everything.
Anyhow, thank you!!
