Hide and Show

Hi Paul, there are a couple of ways you could do this - since you put your text on separate layers the easiest thing for you to do right now is edit the layer properties for each layer and make sure the "Hide other slide layers"  is not selected. This will ensure each layer stays displayed once visited.

The other option would be to add a visited state to your each of your objects and place the text in the visited state. Once the object is clicked the visited state should display automatically and stay visible.

Nancy, thank you for the feedback it worked perfectly. I am just in the process of switching from captivate to articulate and when comparing the two the analogy that springs to mind when developing an e learning course is going on a long distance drive. Captivate is like a tractor, it is clumsy, difficult to drive and hard to work out  what to do when you get into difficulties. Articulate on the other hand is like a comfortable car with a satnav. It's comfortable, provides a lovely drive and when you do get into difficulties there is always someone to point you in the right direction to get you back on track...both vehicles will get you to your destination, but one is a lot quicker, is a far more pleasant experience and allows you to arrive in style... Thanks for the help Nancy it's appreciated.

Thank you so much-Nancy.

Love both your solutions.  I was trying to show a mathematical formula, so this works great .

With appreciation,
