nav with keyboard

Jul 19, 2022

Hello EveryBody

I am asked to be able to navigate from one page to another using keyboard keys (arrows). in addition, I want students to be able to go to the next page only if the slide has already been read completely. control is possible for the buttons (prev and next) but is this possible with arrows on the keyboard. the solution that I see is a variable per page and to test for each page the presses on the keys according to this variable thank you in advance

PS: I hope you are not too hot

Hi, Francois.

Thank you for reaching out! 

If you want an action triggered by a keyboard key, you can use the trigger "When the user presses a key". Keep in mind that using the arrow keys might become an issue for users who work with screen readers, as arrow keys are part of the content navigation.
