How to create a view the next item button?
May 29, 2014
I am not sure how to best do this. At first it seemed simple, but now maybe not so much! I have an arrow shape onscreen and I want to show a series of text boxes each time the learner clicks on the arrow. Basically a “view the next item” function. The previous text box needs to disappear and the new one show up. One way I thought of was when the click on the arrow, it was ‘silently replaced’ with another arrow and each subsequent arrow , via a ‘visited state’ could show different text, but I could not figure out a simple way to get the old text off the screen, and I quickly went down a rabbit hole.
Any ideas out there?

Look at this example to see if it would work for you. Basically I stacked 4 arrows, and sequentially hid the top arrow. Each arrow has a trigger that reveals a text box and hides the previous text box.
The second slide unstacks the arrows and text boxes so you can see them hide and reveal easier.
Meryem,
A simple and elegant solution... thanks!
