How to change state from "start" to "complete"

Stephanie;

I would set up a true false variable for each lesson with initial set to false.  Change that variable at the end of each lesson to true.

On your menu page, have a trigger that changes lesson 1 state to complete if lesson 1 variable = true when timeline starts.  Also a trigger that says change state of lesson 2 to start if lesson 1 variable = true when timeline starts, etc.

Let me know if this makes any sense or if you need any help.

Here is an example for you.

Sorry forgot the complete state.  It is in this example.

Tim,

This is great, thanks.

The only problem that I'm having now is that I have a home button on the master template as part of the course navigation. When the user completes lesson one, and the state changes from "start" to "review" if they go back to review lesson one and are during the mid-review point, they click h ome, the introduction page reverts back to "start" instead of review.

Please let me know if this makes sense.. and if you have any other solutions to address this issue.

Here's the course I'm having trouble with. I'm new to Storyline and can't figure out what I'm making the error on

This looks really nicely laid out.  I am just in the middle of something right now but will have a look at troubleshooting it over lunch if nobody else gets back to you before then.

Stephanie;

Here is your file troubleshooted if that is a word.

I took off the triggers making the variables false on each slide.  That would have messed up your review status when you hit the home button.  the variables were set to false when you made them so not needed here.

I moved your triggers for state changes to when the slide starts vs when the object starts.  I don't know why it makes a difference but I have had better luck with it. 

The trigger order you see is very specific.  It does not work properly if the triggers are ordered differently.  I am not seeing the logic of why this particular order is so important but it is working now.

I took off your continue buttons and just copied the button off of you master slide and pasted it over top of the master slide button so you would have the same navigation but going back to the main slide.

Let me know if any of this makes sense.

Again I really like your layout.
