Dial That Turns When Clicked

Hello,

I have created a dial that will move when clicked.  I cannot figure out how to make a layer appear at the same time. There are 8 layers. 

So, I would like to have a layer open when the dial is clicked and moves to a section.  Any ideas?

Thank you for your help.

    Add slide trigger to Show Layer xyz when Variable <variable that is attached to the dial> changes, if Variable <variable that is attached to the dial> =xyz. Repeat that for each of each layer.

  • That part did work!

    Now, how do I make the dial turn to the next spot when clicked and show the next layer?

    Thank you

    I thought that part was already done :-) I don't know if you want the dial to be clicked directly (that would mean users can also TURN the dial and you may not want that) or if you want the dial to be simply a display object. I would suggest you add a transparent object_abc, place it over the dial, then add a trigger to add <dials_step_value> to <dial_variable>when object_abc is clicked, if <dial_variable> is less than <dials_stop_value>.

  • Hi sorry for the confusion. :)

    So far, I can click the dial once and it shows layer one.  Great.

    When I click the dial a second time, nothing happens, click a third time nothing.

    I need the dial to show 8 different layers. To move around a circle each time it is clicked.

    Thank you for any help you can offer.

  • Use Michael's second trigger to change the dial. Use one of his first triggers for each layer, changing what you need to show the correct layer.
