I have a button that is hidden by default and a variable that triggers it's state. This works great until I have another slide that triggers the button back to invisible, so when the slide loads it shows up for a split second and vanishes.
I'm using Change state of X when the timeline starts on this slide, but it allows for the the state to be seen briefly on the initial load. Is there something else I can be doing? Attaching visual.
If the initial state is Hidden, be sure the slide is set to "Return to initial state on Revisit", and you won't need the trigger.
I think that the initial state and the "Change state when timeline starts" trigger may be conflicting each other, but I can't really be sure without seeing the .story file.
Hi Walt, I don't see that option anywhere under the "States" tab. Some more context I'm currently editing my SLIDE MASTER for my question banks. Ideally I have a button that shows up after I get to the "review" slide to let a user jump to the end, then finally during the post grade review that button is hidden once again
As a followup this was related to some weird preexisting slide transition property. I selected all my slides and applied a transition of none to them and it was resolved

That setting is on slide properties.
