I am working on a project in which I am using the checkbox interaction. I would like the selected checkbox trigger to be able to display/show a hidden layer on the following slide. Is this possible?
I don't want to use the multi-selection quiz function because there are no right or wrong answers.
Yes, that is possible. The checkbox could have a trigger attached to toggle a True/False variable. Then on the next slide add a slide trigger that shows layer xyz when timeline starts IF variable abc is true.
Ok, so I got the True/False trigger attached to the checkbox. But, I should clarify, I'd like the activated checkbox to display the hidden Timeline Layer (not the Slide Layer). See screenshot.
I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to do. Are you trying to change the state of a group from Hidden to Normal? If you manually turn off the visibility of an object on the timeline (as shown in the screenshot, it'll be off permanently.

Thoughts on this one??

I'd like to create a trigger on the previous slide that will change the state of the group visibility from hidden to normal.
Groups don't have states, you need to add triggers that change the state for each individual object that's part of the group.
