Changing states using variables

Nov 17, 2015

Hi,

I am looking to change the state of pictures on a slide on the original scene which navigate to separate scenes. The idea is that the image changes once the user has completed the scene. I figured I would only need to set a trigger to add to the variable on the next button and then triggers on the home slide to change the state of the image based on a variable change but it doesn't seem to work when I preview. Any ideas? below are some screenshots of the triggers & variables I have set.

state and triggers

Thanks

Ed

Hello Ed

Michaels suggestion is probably the ticket. If you tried it and did not work, chances are, you were timing the wrong object. The trigger event should be "when the time line starts" - the object should be the slide... Under the condition that the variable equals 1, for example. "When the variable changes" trigger event can be tricky. Time line starts is bomber.  I just opened your file and was able to change the state following those steps. Also, There was something a little wonky with your question slide.  So I had to remove the free form and then convert it back to free form for the question feedback layers to appesr.
