I have a back button created on a slide (let's call this Slide B) - this function is to jump to an earlier slide (Slide A) when the user clicks on it, and this is working fine. However, I would want the back button to jump to Slide A on a particular timeframe (for example: 22 seconds), how do I do that?
Do you want the back button to only allow a user to go back to slide A when:
1) 22 seconds have passed,
or
2) allow it to happen automatically at 22 seconds if the user has not yet pressed the back button themselves?
For option 2, You could set a trigger to jump to slide A when the timeline of the slide B or an object on slide B with a timeline set to 22 seconds has ended. That would allow it to happen automatically.
If you're looking at option 1, let me know what version of Storyline you're using and that would help us mock up an example for you!
I actually wanted the back button which is on Slide B to jump to the timeframe at 22 seconds on Slide A when the user clicks on it. Does that make sense?
Hi Stu
No, I can't split Slide A into two slides as all the content need to be in the same slide.
Ah, Megan yes now I understand. There isn't a built-in trigger to jump to a particular point on a timeline, but perhaps Stu or others in the community have some creative ideas on how to accomplish this!

Can you split Slide A into two Slides (A1 & A2) where A2 starts at the 22 second point ?
Slide A1 would jump automatically to A2.

Thank you.
