Quirk with Triggers and 'Resume Where You Left Off'

Although I am still unsure why this is happening, I have found a way of actually preventing it from happening.

If I set the "When revisiting" slide property to "Reset to initial state" , it gets around the issue. However, as it is only ME who has the problem, I'm not sure I want to go through every slide and set this up.

Perhaps it's a job for the laptop on the knee and a glass of wine in the hand.  

I don't think this is a quirk this is a part of the resume function.

Storyline does get confused sometimes when returning to slide, this is why the three options, normally Storyline will go with the saved state (if you leave it set as automatically decide).  If you have fired the triggers and then resume I would expect the slide to load as fired.

You dont need to set all the slide revisit properties manually, go to storyview select all and choose initial state from the bottom right pane

It must be a quirk somewhere, Phil, otherwise it wouldn't behave differently on different machines. Whether it's a Storyline quick or what. However, I think it's important to be aware of this because then you can set up options to give it the best possible chance of behaving as uniformally as possible.

Thank you for the 'Storyview' tip. Can't believe I haven't thought of that, before! 

Each time you visit the slide I expect you change the way it revisits, I try not to change automatically decide because it seems to be hit and miss.

Can you guarantee that the resume data was the same when you used the other PC's, because when you checked the slides you changed the data being sent.  

It would be worth putting in a bug report, the first thing I do with a project is remove the automatically decide, I think I may be a little paranoid or untrusting just me

Sorry, Phil, I am obviously being very stupid. I am in Story View but can't see a 'select all' option. I also tried right clicking to see if a menu comes up. Where is the select all option? Thanks. 

Sorry select a scene then press ctrl+A

Ok, I have used CTRL+A and it worked the third time of asking! However the option to change slide properties is disabled. 

Oh, it has worked now!

Thank you, Phil. Much appreciated.

arghhh!

Looks like you need to select them manually
