I need help. Here's what I want to do I have slides A, B and C. On Slide A there's a link to Slide B and Slide C. When they have visited Slide B, and then return to Slide A, a checkmark appears on Slide A That Slide B has been visited. (Hope this makes sense) Same thing for Slide C.
I create 3 buttons on the main page. When the user clicks the A button, it jumps to slide A. On Slide A I have a button to return to the main page. The other buttons work similarly, but point to different pages.
For the buttons on the main page, I edited the states. In particular, the visited state. I inserted a check mark on the visited state for each button.
When the user clicks a button the state simulateneously changes to visited and a storyline opens the indicated page. When the user returns, the visited state of the button is retained. The state changes are built in to the button, you just need to edit the visited state to reflect the look you are after.
I've made a quick mockup (attached) which I believe does what you want it to. It works by adjusting a True/False variable for slides B and C, with a conditional statement on slide A.
Garth - the idea for the states does indeed work but I think i can bring it a step further/ to the next level with Steven's suggestion of setting the variables and conditional statement -- that is what I was looking for. Thanks for the two examples!! Super helpful!!

Thank you both very much.
