Resetting a Slider interaction when a partipant revisits a slide layer they have previously viewed
Aug 25, 2016
Hello,
I need some help from the awesome E-learning Heroes community.
I have a slide with multiple layers and on each layer I have a slider interaction that manipulates the content on that particular layer. When the user first clicks on the layer the slider is set to the normal state with the initial point set at 0. If they happen to leave the slider on one of the other selected steps and leave the slide layer the slider is left on the selected step when they revisit that layer.
I have the layers set to "reset to initial state" and I've also tried using triggers to return the slider to it's normal state when the timeline starts and can't seem to figure out how to get it back to it's normal state when the user returns to the slide layer a second time.
I've attached a copy of the slide for reference.
Any advice?
Thank you in advance for your help :)

You will need to reset the variable as well on timeline start
Thanks for the quick reply!
How would I go about doing that?
Have you tried resetting the variable/changing the state at the time they leave the layer?
Hi Caryn,
I just tried changing the state at the time they leave the layer and unfortunately no luck.
I don't have a separate variable built for the slide only the variables that are included within each slider. Should I create a separate variable for the slide itself?
You need to add a trigger to adjust the slider variable to 0 (if that is your initial value) when the timeline starts for that slide
would this be the correct sequence (see attached)?
You need to set the object to be the slide otherwise it will work.
Awesome! it worked.
Thank you so much for your help
Glad you go t it sorted.
Glad you were able to get the assistance you needed here Kyle.
Welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)
I was having trouble resetting my slider as well, even when I reset the variable. I was able to solve this issue by moving my slider to .5 seconds on the timeline, which forced it to reset.
Thanks for popping in to share Jackie and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)
