Slide Layer Properties
Sep 17, 2014
1) I took the "previous" and "next" slide navigation controls off my slide properties on my main slide because I wanted to force the learns to click on a button to see the layer before moving to the next slide. I tried to put the "previous/next" navigation controls on the layer but there is no option to do this. Do I just have to create a button and a trigger to jump to the next slide or a trigger to move to the next slide at the end of the timeline?
2)Is there an easy way to ensure that a learner is clicking on your buttons to see all the slide layers before moving on in the course?
thanks for any help!

Hi Tracy,
You can create your own navigation buttons on your main slide and use variables that control the previous/next buttons appearing. This example was given to me when I wanted to force interaction. Using states helps too!

Hi Tracy and Katie,
Katie, tx for jumping in. I don't know who created the example that was given to you (do you remember? you might want to credit them here), but it's a good one.
Tracy, I understand that you removed the default next button, and if that's the look you want, you should stick with it! But just as a point of information, you CAN actually set things up so clicking next will send the Learners to layers first and then to a subsequent slide. That's what I've done with the attached. I use variables to achieve this. If you're interested and would like more details, please shout out!
@AntonySnow gave me that example.
Katie and Rebecca,
Thanks so much! Both example are what I am trying to do!.....variables I think are the most difficult part of articulate storyline but I was able to replicate the examples you both gave me :o)
thanks again!
Ah, Antony always has good examples .
Tracy, glad Katie and I...and Antony!...were able to get you going in the right direction. And yes re getting the hang of variables. Takes a bit...looking at other people's examples and redoing them is a great way to learn...at least it has been and continues to be for me.
Hi all
This was just what I needed too - so thanks all!
