Hi- I need some help programming this slide. I want to have the viewers look at all 5 layers before they are able to go to the next slide. I added a variable for completion and the triggers for the next button but im having a hard time getting it work. Any advice?
I think there's an easier way to set this up. Instead of using T/F variables, try using the built-in Visited state.
To do this, remove all of the triggers on the main layer except for the ones set to show each individual layer. Then, add the following two triggers:
1. Change the state of the next button to Hidden when the timeline starts.
2. Change the state of the next button to Normal when the timeline starts IF:
Square 1 is equal to Visited
AND Square 2 is equal to Visited
AND Square 3 is equal to Visited
AND Square 4 is equal to Visited
AND Oval 1 is equal to Visited
Then, copy the second trigger onto each individual layer. This is the only trigger that should appear on each individual layer (besides the Jump to URL triggers).
See attached for an example of these changes in action.
I should probably add the same note here that I shared with Matthew. You can also change the initial state of the next button to Disabled if you'd rather have it appear on the player but be grayed out.

Hope that helps!

Thank you so much for your example! It helped me fix a problem I had on my course. I had the trigger built as an object instead of a slide trigger.
