States and layers question

You had a trigger on the Marketing item that changes this object to Visited AFTER the layer is displayed. That's why it shows up on the layer. Since Visited is a built-in state that is called automatically, this trigger is not even required. But if you do want to keep it for some reason, then it needs to be ABOVE the Show layer trigger. See attached a revised file.

I don't understand why having this trigger would cause the image to appear on a different layer than that which it was originally placed. I do want a change of state to indicate to the learner that they already visited that section. Should I have the trigger to change state when the user clicks the close button for that layer? Would that be a better way to handle this?

I just did what I asked about and it worked as intended. I even solved another issue. The way it was at first I could visit that layer again. Now I can. Yay for the duck...

Because you had placed the trigger after the layer was called, so the state change of the object causes it to be 'touched'/updated. Trigger order is the key here.

Like I said, with the Visited state you do not need that trigger at all. 

Hi Jesse,

It looks like Michael has you covered here and you may also want to read about trigger order here. 

Now I understand. I deleted the trigger and you're right. It worked as intended. I was making extra work for myself.  Thanks for the help.
