Image appear on previous slide after a layer is viewed

Jul 08, 2013

Hi Guys

I have an interesting challenge for you. I am building a systems based training package and am trying to use the one slide as a master with all other slides returning to the master on completion through the use of buttons.

The subsequent (second) content slides have a number of layers to lead the learner through the system. At the end of the layer the user returns to the first slide where they can select the next topic.

What i would really like to see is the tick image appear on top of the section once the final layer (on the second slide) has been viewed (Im not sure if states might be an option for this).

Something like "image appear, after layer has been viewed"

Finally i would like to include a rule that says you cannot progress to the next slide (aka the assessment) until you have complete all 8 packages and have all 8 ticks on the screen.

Not to sure how to really achieve this. have i made this too complicated? Does anyone have any thoughts. Package attached.

Hi Rachael,

As it appears that the user views each of the layers on each slide in a linear way i.e. on the 'Accessing TMS' slide, they have to view the 'Select TMS logo' first and then 'TMS Links' and then 'BU View' etc. the easiest way to display the tick only once they have viewed all layers is to:

Create a True/False variable called 'Accessing TMS' and set the default value to False
Add a trigger on the 'Final' layer to adjust this variable to True when the timline of the 'Final' layer begins
Select the tick on the menu screen and via the States panel, set the initial state to 'Hidden'
Add a trigger to menu screen that changes the state of the tick to normal when the timeline starts on condition that the variable 'Accessing TMS' is equal to True

Presuming that you only want the user to be able to navigate to the next layer on each slide (by clicking on the hotspots) or return to the menu (by clicking on the 'home' button), I would switch off the next and previous buttons on the 'Accessing TMS' slide (and any other content slides) via the slide properties and would update the trigger on the 'Next' button on the menu slide to:

Action: Jump to slide

Slide: 1.3 Performance Searches

When: User clicks

Object: Next button

On condition: [TICK 1]'s state is Normal AND [TICK 2]'s state is Normal etc.

Rachael,

here is a revised file that basically follows Antony's approach, with a few slight differences that achieve the same result. Since you didn't have the other 7 sections set up, I set the initial value for the completion variables to true. Hope that makes sense.
