I am trying to have a layer pop up if the learner clicks the next button before I want him to. The player next button is disabled until the learner clicks on all screen shapes....no problem. But, I want a reminder layer to appear if he clicks the next button before clicking all the shapes. This is what isn't working. I have a variable for the slide being complete set at false and a trigger to change it to true only if all shapes are visited. Then I have a trigger to show the "click all buttons" layer if the slide complete variable is false. Nothing. Can anyone help. The file is attached.
The trigger on the "Click all Buttons" layer is the cause of the problem. It is hiding the layer as soon as the timeline starts so you never see the layer since it closes right away. Changing that trigger should fix the issue.
OMG. I looked at that slide for 20 minutes and never noticed that. I guess I just needed a fresh set of eyes to see that. Is there a way to get that layer to pop up if the learner clicks next without clicking any of the shapes. Right now it only pops up after one of the shapes is clicked. Thanks. Michael.
I was able to get it to work fine with the previous example you provided. The only change I did was on the "Click all buttons" layer I changed the trigger to hide this layer when timeline ends. On the preview it popped up when clicking Next.
That is odd. To be sure I downloaded the original above and only changed the trigger to hide the layer when the timeline ends and that layer will show when I hit the next button no matter what ( unless I have already visited Document, identify, and Review/Consult). Maybe I'm not understanding fully or there is something different between our systems. I'm using Storyline 360, maybe that is different than Storyline 3?

Hi Lynn,

Hmm....not working on the original file. I'll look at it again. Thanks. Lynn

Maybe that's it. I'll look again. Thanks.
Have a look at the attached and see if that's what you wanted. I changed the conditions on the Next button triggers.
It's perfect. Thanks and have a great holiday week. Lynn
