Is there trigger setup to disable player buttons?

I don't know if this is a clean solution but it worked for me somehow:

Since the feedback layers seems by default disables the submit button on the player, I thought about duplicating it and put the elements I wanted to appear in it. And so I duplicated the 'Correct' feedback layer, then I modified its 'Layout' to blank, renamed it. I copied and pasted the elements to it, I tested it and there the submit button is not clickable anymore which is what I want.

Here's a screenshot of the duplicated feedback layer with submit button being greyed out: http://screencast.com/t/bxbaagnaRJ2 

I'm not sure if it will affect storyline's flow in any way. I hope not. If you think so, please shed some light here.

Also, note that I am not using 'Result Slides' except for the last slide. So the built-in 'review quiz' option is not used (mainly for the fact that it has some bugs on iPad and HTML5).

Hi Timmini and welcome to Heroes!

There isn't a way to trigger the buttons on the player to be disabled, but you could modify this method to disable the buttons until a user has interacted with all elements.  You can also choose to remove the built in player buttons on a slide by slide basis. 

I wasn't able to view the screen shot you shared (got a 404 error) but if you've found a method that works for you, great news.

Thank you for the response, though I feel that the solution I've found is not in anyway a native functioning in Storyline I did tested it many times and it seems to work very well for the purpose.

On a side note, I mentioned something about HTML5 issue regarding result slides can force a bug to its successor slides, I just found out that is has been fixed for HTML5 in the Update no.5 release. That's good news, however I will stick to my new method of showing 'correction slide' for now.

As for the adding trigger to make buttons on the player inactive, I hope it will be a future addition to storyline, it can be very powerful for some situations.

Thanks Timmini, and if there are features you'd like to see in future versions of Storyline, please share your thoughts with our product development team by submitting a feature request. 

Hi Timmini,

i have been using the duplication of the feedback layers method too and it works fine on the PC/laptop. However when playing the same output on the mobile player, did you notice the submit button does not grey-out?

i did some rigorous testing, so far the duplication method does not seem to affect the logical flow in storyline. If you have encountered any drawbacks, please let me know. Thanks.

Hi Philip,

This thread is a bit older, so I'm not certain folks are subscribed here. If you're having difficulty with your mobile output, you'll first want to confirm that you're viewing the content in one of the supported browsers here. 

It also seemed that Timmini wasn't using the latest update of Storyline 1 at the time. We're now on Update 10 of Storyline 1 and Update 7 of Storyline 2. So you may want to ensure you're using the latest update. 

Thanks for the heads-up, Ashley.
