There is probably an easy fix for this, most likely staring me in the face. I have two check boxes - one for a yes and one for a no. I need only one to be selected at a time to show a variable on a layer. Please help :)
If you make them a button set (select and right click), only one can be selected at a time. Then put a trigger on each to open its corresponding layer.
(General programming convention uses radio buttons to indicate that the user can select only one at a time, while check boxes are used to indicate that one or more may be selected. It is not a law, but users should be accustomed to that at some level.)
Hi Claire! Walt makes a good point and I wanted to share some additional information.
Button sets let you create interactions where the learner is able to select only one object at a time from a group of objects. When a learner selects one object from the set, the others automatically become deselected. See this tutorial to learn more about button sets in Articulate Storyline.
Thanks guys! I was able to fix this using the checkboxes setting a variable to adjust the state of one versus the other when the user clicks. You guys rock for helping for me!

Hi Claire!
Would you be able to share the .story file so that we can see what you are working with and assist?
