If I may ask for advice, I have 5 scenes in my presentation and at the end I have made a slide with some trigger tabs where the learner can revisit a selected scene. Question is when that selected scene has been revisited how can I get the last slide of the revisited scene jump back to the end slide where the triggers are? Hope that was clear enough. Thanks in advance
Check this sample. I only made three scenes, but you get the idea. In scene one, I made it so that at any slide you can jump to the slide where the triggers are. Scenes two and three require you to review the entire scene before you can return.
Dear Walt sorry for the late reply and thanks so much for your assistance. I did manage to create the trigger to go from the revision and slide back to the chapter. Problem is in the presentation when clicking on the next chapter (first viewing) it automatically goes to the revision slide and not to the next chapter, I am not so wise here and cannot find the solution, I am sure I am missing something small and have attempted to recreate the triggers as you suggested and mucked it up a bit. thanks again
I may have gotten the wrong version of the project, as I couldn't match the various scenes to the Chapters. So I just added a scene for chapter one, and one for two. The heart of the navigation is a variable that tells the system whether or not a scene has been seen. I named them finishedChapter1, etc.
The triggers are placed on the last slide of each scene. The first one reads "Jump to slide XXX when user clicks [rectangle or Next button} if finishedChapter1 equals true. If it is true, it jumps to that slide. If it is not, it goes on. The next one sets variable finishedChapter1 to true, then the last one jumps to the next chapter.

Mark,

I only set up Chapters one and two.
Thanks so much to you both for your assistance, regards
