Keeping the next button active when you leave the slide

Hello everyone! I have created a slide that the next button does not pop up until all of the buttons on the slide are visited. The issue I am having is that if the learner goes back to that slide, the buttons are still in their visited state but, the next button is no longer showing, even if I click the three buttons again. How do I keep the next button active on this slide once we leave the slide?

Hi LaShondra

create a T/F variable slideVisited default to False.

Add a triggers in this order: 

  1. Change state of Next button to disabled (or hidden) when timeline starts on slide on condition that slideVisited is not equal to True
  2. Adjust variable slideVisited to True when timeline ends on the slide.
  3. Change state of Next button to normal when timeline ends on condition that slideVisited = True
