Enable a trigger when user doesn't do/click on anything

May 25, 2021

Hi there.

I need your help: is there a way to set enable a trigger only if user doesn't click on anything?

I have a slide with 4 "cards" that have to be clicked in order to uncover them and show what's the text under them. I would like to insert a pop-up text box that tells what to do only if user doesn't click on anything after 10 ten seconds.

Is this possbile?

Thanks!

Hi, Digital.

Thank you for reaching out!

There are a few ways to achieve what you're looking for, and I'm hoping members of the community will share their suggestions, but here's mine:

Create a True/False variable (let's call it Clicked)
Create a layer (we'll call it 10 seconds) with the pop-up message you want to show the user.
Add a trigger to show the layer 10 seconds when the timeline reaches 10 seconds if the variable Clicked is False.

Add a trigger to each of your cards, so the variable clicked turns True when the card is clicked.

I am attaching a sample .story file here with the above suggestion.

Let me know if this works!
