Navigation Buttons Disappear After Using a Lightbox
Nov 29, 2023

I think this is a bug, but I wanted to check here to see if anyone has a solution.
I added a link to the top, right navigation bar that acts as a navigation tour. It is a custom trigger in the player that lightboxes a slide.
When you close the lightbox, the navigation buttons (Next and Previous buttons) disappear from the original slide.
How do I keep the navigation buttons on the player?
Can I not lightbox a slide from the player?
Attached are some before and after using the button.
Here is an example, too, if you would like to see how it functions.

I often lightbox slides via a Player tab, and I've never had that problem.
Based on how it runs in Review, I'd guess that there are triggers to hide PREV and NEXT somewhere on the lightbox slide. But they are doing that on the main slide, not in the lightbox.
If that's not the problem, I suggest you upload a copy of the .story file, because that will make it much easier for someone to troubleshoot.
Here are the best practices for uploading a .story file:
Judy,
That was it. I had triggers set on the slide that I was lightboxing in.
Thank you so much!!
