switching between layers

Oct 13, 2014

So I know I am close. I can get the slide to swap between two layers, but the problem is that they don't stop. I need them to stop after a set amount of times and then go on to the next layer. Any help would be great.

I am guessing you are doing something like the following...

Toggling between layer 1 and layer 2 on slide end with the trigger "Jump to Slide" when the timeline ends.

To do this a specific amount of times...

1. Create a variable. I will call it "layerVisit" and have it set initially to a value of "0"

2. Create a trigger that adjust the variable when one of your layers starts.

As the layer is visited the layerVisit variable will increase by 1 every time that timeline starts.

Now create another trigger on layer 1 or 2 that will show Layer 3. Set it to have a condition for the layerVisit variable. In the example below layerVisit has to be 5 or greater. Hope this helps!
