Disable Next or Previous Buttons Until Slide Complete

Apr 02, 2013

Hello.

Is it possible to disable the Next and Previous buttons on a slide until all of the actions on a slide have completed? I have attached a sample slide on which I would like the slide actions to complete BEFORE a user can move from the slide but I can't see how to do it.

It's probably me just being old and useless!!  Any help will be grateful received.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Paolo

You can add a condition to the Player Trigger that means it only works when certain conditions are met.

To do this I'd create another T/F variable, i.e .Pronunciation, and adjust it at the end of the last sound clip, then add a condition to the Player Trigger so it only works when the variable is True:

Paolo, see attached revise file. In your case, you want the slide to play completely, so I set a variable that is set to True once the timeline completes. The Next button has a condition that only jumps to next slide if this variable is true. I also restricted the navigation in the menu.
