The dreaded "Next" Button
May 19, 2014
On the Articulate Story player there is a previous and a next button. You can click the next button any time during the slide. We do not want people to be able to skip over that much information. I would like to know:
1. Can you remove those buttons and if so how?
2. If you cannot remove them is there a way to keep the person from clicking the next button until the entire slide and audio is finished?
I would appreciate any help with this request! Thanks

Hi Michelle, welcome to the community.
Re 1.): yes you can remove the Next/Prev from a specific slide (or all slides), see here for some info.
Re 2.): One option is to use a True/False variable to signify 'slidecompletion'. This variable starts out as False and is set to True once the slide audio is complete. The Next button's 'JumpTo' tirgger would need a condition that makes sure that clicking the button only jumps to the next slide if the variable is True (meaning 'the slide is complete'). Hope that makes sense.
