Need help with variable setting!

I'm going to test this theory to determine if I need to add the created variable to each slide layer and not just on the base layer....ughhh..hope not!

Ok, having played with it further, though not quite there yet, here's my findings;

1. the initial variable should have been set to "False" not "True"

2. then, the show layer If trigger needed to be changed to "False"

3. I created a temporary "Jump to" scene so I'll know if the variable was properly executed

It executed properly, meaning I was finally able to move forward, but only after having to tab through each label [several times] until all the tabs were visited on the base/top slide. Which was not easy to do the first time.

I'm sure I missed something here!

Hello Manacha - Instead of basing one variable upon the changing of states - I would utilize variables for each. This will prevent confusion.

I've added a variable for each of your layers - that way it adjusts when you view each layer. I think this is what you were asking about.

Take a peek and see if this helps. (I deleted Scene 2 so I could focus on the slide needed for testing).

Once again...you are awesome!

I will study your work and send you feedback tomorrow for my understanding.

Peace!

Glad to be able to assist - hope it helps :)

To: Wendy Farmer, the post states that I removed your comment. That was not may intent. Matter-of-fact, I'm not sure how that even occurred.

To: Leslie,

Ok, I have reviewed and understood 99% of the modifications you made in manachalm.story.

The 1% that I have yet to understand is where to access the initial variable "drizzle" showing False [if] the selected slide(s) have not been "selected, or visited or down".

I can see where to access drizzle in the variable project mgr, but it only shows what the value is equal to.

Does that make sense?

Hey Manacha - when it says removed by author, it's who wrote the post. I assume Wendy actually removed it :)

I'm not sure I'm following your question, but it sounds like you are not sure where I used your variable. So, let me share this tip:

Did you know that when you view your variables, the number will open a new window to show you everywhere it was used?

Ok, I see...the Author posting the comment and not the Author who posted the discussion. Thank you.

Back to 'drizzle' variable. Yes, I was able to locate the variable you created in the manager.

My confusion came from a past variable I've created and tried to modify for this activity without success. Here's what I did in the past;

1. created an initial variable=False

2. then, created an Adjust variable action for the initial variable
    a. set Value to False
    b. When the State of
    c. All of {selecting specific slides}
    d. Is Visited or Selected, etc

This variable worked when I used if for slides in its own scene. Didn't appear to work for the Accordion interactivity where the slides are contained in the scene.

What you did was bypass the Adjust variable action and simply created OR conditions for the related slides within the scene...BRAVO!!!

Haha! Glad that works for you Manacha ;) Glad to be able to assist.

Hi Manacha

sorry I posted and then saw Leslie's post so deleted mine.  Glad you're all sorted and good luck with your project!

Chayuah (Greetings) Wendy!

Oh...OK. Thank you for further clarification and your willingness to help.

Yes, thanks to Leslie my project is coming along wonderfully!

Shalum!

So glad to hear it Manacha :) It's great to see you growing on your journey :)

Chayuch (greetings) Leslie!

Thank you for your kind words.

My "journey" have been fruitful because of you, other staff members, and this fantastic community.
