I need some help with this. I have six topics to cover. I would like to have a check icon appear next to the topic on the selection screen after the student has gone through those pages.
Make a variable for each section, when they complete that section change the variable to true(the var should be a boolean ofc). On your selection screen you want to have a "when timeline begins" trigger to change the top to completed, by changing the state or what-have-you, with the condition that the linked variable is set to true.
Put your completion image onscreen where you want it to be and set it's initial state to hidden. Then create a true/false variable for each section and on the last slide of each section adjust the var to true. Then add a trigger on the selection screen to change state of hidden icon to normal when timeline starts if varX=true.
I've mocked up a quick couple of slides to help demonstrate this.
So I've been playing around with your mock up but for some reason I can't make it work. I tried to add a 3rd section, duplicating what you did but with no success. Can you see what I'm doing wrong?
No problem, I've had a look and there are 2 quick things to fix.
Firstly, go into your trigger editor and make sure that section 3 starts as false, it is currently set to true.
Secondly, on the page with the buttons and ticks: under 'slide triggers' you will see the conditions under which the ticks change to normal. You've correctly assigned the variable but haven't changed which tick is being affected. So currently, var section 3 is altering the tick for section 2 all you need to do to fix this is change the tick for the one for section 3.

Hi Rob,

Hope this helps
Thank you, it certainly does help. Although I haven't been able to duplicate it....I'll figure it out
