Testing our course on a tablet has shown up a problem - Most slides disable the next button on timeline start - to ensure the user does/reads whatever.
As the slides change, the button is activated - when our tester used a tablet they missed slides and sections by repeat clicking the next button for example.
Is there a way to disable next sooner? Or a better way to make sure a slide is seen for 3s / until a condition is filled/ for example?
I have seen this before not sure there is an easy fix.
I would try adding a variable (perhaps called lock (T/F) that is set to false on timeline start and then use cue point on master set to 3 seconds to set to true, unlock the next button based on the variable and ensure that variable has to be true via condition to continue.
I built a quick and dirty example here, everything is on a master layout, you could have more than one layout for timeline based or interaction.
Thanks phil! - putting something on the master slide is a great idea - as it loads before the rest of the slide content - and I can see this being a good way to retrofit... I guess the next update, anyway
