Removing or Hiding the Previous/Next Buttons?
Hi There! I'm using Storyline to put together a (really cool) museum-style interaction that will play on a touch screen computer at a historical site! I'd like to essentially make the interaction play full screen at 1280X720, so I've gone in and set all of the player elements as transparent. Here's my question: I have gotten rid of everything but the previous and next buttons- how do I turn these off?
Thanks!

Hi, Ethan!
You can turn these off in the slide itself on a per-slide basis but I prefer to go into Story View, select a heap of slides and deselect the Prev / Next / Submit properties all at once:

Hi Steve:
Dumb question but how do you select multiple slides?
- SteveFlowersCommunity Member
Hi, Anna -
Within Story View, you can select multiple slides using SHIFT-CLICK within a scene.

Hi Steve,
I've removed the Next and Prev buttons from the player and added my own custom navigation buttons. Now on question slides when I go back using my custom buttons the Prev/Next buttons appear on the player. Is there a way to hide those as well?
Thanks

Welcome to E-Learning Heroes, E!
I just had a discussion yesterday with another community member about this. Are you using a custom "Submit" button on your question slides, or are you using the default player's "Submit" button? Try creating a custom button and disable the default one. When you submit and return to the question slide, the player navigational buttons should remain disabled.
If you have any trouble with this, let me know!
Thanks,
Christine

Hi Christine,
I am using a custom submit button in my question slides, I disabled the submit and Pre/Next button in each of the slide. The only way it keep the default Prev/Next button disabled when I go back is if I set each slide to "reset to initial state" but It is not a good solution to do this.
Any idea why the prev/next button keep coming back? is that a bug or is there anything I can do?
Thanks

Hi E,
You're using a custom "Submit" button and they're still showing up? Do you have the default buttons enabled on any other slides in the course? If so, that may be what's happening.
Are you able to share the .STORY file here? I'd be happy to check it out and see what's happening.
Thanks!
Christine
