Slide will not remember state when returning

Brooke is this a Storyline 360 or Storyline 3 created module?  

Hugh, this is a Storyline 360 module.

Ok, I will defer to folks who use that, I was unable to open (I am a Storyline 3 user).  I would doublecheck to make sure you don't have a trigger that is reloading/refreshing the page or otherwise resetting your variables and losing the saved state.   

Thanks Hugh, I'm pretty sure I don't, but I'm still fairly new at this, so there's always a chance. Thanks for your quick response!

A couple of quick notes:

• You don't need a trigger to change to visited, that happens automatically if the object has a visited state. It's the way visited is built.
• Evaluating states is great for onslide interactions, but when leaving and coming back variables make more sense. It's easier to track, gives you more control, and is universal to the course. 
• I'd create a custom state (complete) so it doesn't interfere with the pre-built visited state. Use a T/F variable for each module (Mod1Complete=False, etc). In the separate modules, create a trigger to change the variable to True.
• On the main slide, set a trigger to change the state of the button to "complete" when slide starts if variable = True.
• Create a trigger to change state of next button to Normal (WHEN SLIDE STARTS) if all of the variables are = True.

Thank you Tom. I am very unfamiliar with variables, so it looks like now is the time to learn them!

We actually covered this is quite a bit of detail in the webinar on Friday. But the variables tutorials are good with some practice files and the T/F tutorial covers navigation.

Tom, thank you for the help. I watched the webinar recording a few times, added variables as you suggested and it finally works! Thank you so much, I have been working on and researching this for days!

Glad it helped.
