How to make slides disappear while previewing the course

I have some slides that are being used as light boxes and I don't want them to appear whenever I preview or play the course. 

Is there a way on how to do this?

You just need to revise the triggers that tell the program to access the lightbox slides via the NEXT button when stepping through the course.

  • For example, if a lightbox slide is after a "regular" slide, then on the regular slide, you'd need to change the NEXT-button trigger to specify that it should go to a specific slide (or, depending on how the course is set up, to another scene).
  • FYI: I typically put all my lightbox slides into an extra scene. I only link to that scene via lightbox triggers. In other words, the NEXT button would never get there. That simplifies the programming, because I don't have to adjust any NEXT-button triggers.
