showing instruction slides only on first use

Jul 18, 2017

I have some slides that are only instructions to new users. So after that, upon opnening the app, the user should move to dashboard immediately. What is the best way to do this? I can't convert the slides to layers anymore.

Hi there

You could set a variable for slide 1 to show that it has been viewed. For example:

  • Create a variable, Slide 1 variable, and set to False.
  • Create at trigger on Slide 1, Adjust variable Slide 1 variable to True when timeline ends on Slide 1
  • Create a trigger on Slide 1, Jump to slide 2 when timeline starts if Slide 1 variable is True

This way, when the timeline starts on slide 1 it will try to jump to slide 2. As the learner hasn't reached the end of slide 1 yet, the variable is still False.

Next time they go back to that slide, the variable is now True so they will instantly jump to slide 2.
