previous/next button on feedback (URGENT!)

Jul 27, 2012

Hi, how can I remove the previous/next buttons from the feedback screen?

I have already unchecked all the slide navegation controls in the story view, but they continue appearing when i see the feedbacks.

Help me!

Hey, yes it is the player Prev Next buttons (not my arrows up top) that appear when you go back after answering a question in the Knowledge Check. 

I just want to use my nav buttons, and that is the case everywhere, except the Prev/Next appear when you go back to a previously answered question.

Thanks for your thoughts. You weren't butting in :)

xcept the Prev/Next appear when you go back to a previously answered question.

So even when you set these triggers on the Next disabled master layout 

  • Change state of next button to hidden when timeline starts
  • Change state of previous button to hidden when timeline starts

They are still displaying on review?

 

Update:

I've just added the triggers in and the player  buttons don't display on review see Peek

File attached - and now I'm butting out :-)

what we were talking about was when you click the back arrow (up top) to go to a previous question slide... that is when the player's unwanted prev/next buttons appear 

Your modified file did seem to take care of the issue, with the only caveat being the window resizes as though there are prev/next buttons present.  

Thanks for your help.  i'll take any workaround that gets me around storyline issues.

I've got Next and Previous hidden on my quiz slides, yet they're appearing on the feedback. I've traced the feedback master to the correct one, and been able to insert my custom buttons on there.

I've added triggers to that master to hide the next/prev buttons on timeline start, but they still appear. There are no Slide Options that I can locate (I guess the screenshots from the very start of the thread are from SL1).

If I set the triggers to timeline = 0.1 seconds then it's fine. It doesn't seem to like being set to 'start of timeline'. Means they appear for a split second but that's the lesser of two evils.

Hello Joe!

Thanks for sharing this workaround with us! By default, you'll see Storyline's built-in Prev and Next buttons in the lower right corner of the player when reviewing a quiz question—even if you've disabled them throughout your course. These navigation buttons are necessary for learners to review quiz slides.

I'll let you know if I see any other workarounds that are shared regarding hiding navigation buttons during quiz review.

Hi Joe!

It's me again! I was discussing this with my teammate, Maria, and she found an easier way to control the navigation buttons.

I've recorded a Peek explaining her recommendation. 

Here are the steps:

  1. Create a T/F variable that has a default value of False.
  2. On the Results Slide, add a trigger to Adjust Variable to True when the Timeline Starts on this slide.
  3. In the Slide Master, head over to the Question Layout. 
    1. Add two triggers
      • Change State of Next Button to Hidden when the Timeline Starts on this slide with a condition that reads If Variable is equal to True.
      • Change State of Previous Button to Hidden when the Timeline Starts on this slide with a condition that reads If Variable is equal to True.
  4. From there, you're all set!
