I want to create a text variable to insert in the next slide based on the learner's selection of an item off this checklist. I have been unable create a trigger so far, and would love some advice.
see attached video - is this what you mean based on your current setup. In your variable setup you have included 'increases' as the default value or did you want the variable to take on the value selected from the checklist?
I've updated your .story file where the variable changes according to the selection on the previous slide. I've left your default variable value as it is but you could make that blank as the triggers will slot in what you want to display.
Wendy, yes I wanted it to take on the value selected from the checklist. So it looks like I needed to make the setting of the variable dependent on what was checked when they pushed the next button? Is that correct?
I was also confused by the =Assignment part, which doesn't have other options

Hope this helps

Thank you!
I changed my triggers to match yours, but it still isn't working, can you take a look and see if you see something I don't?
