Trigger issue

Jul 14, 2020

I don't want learner to advance slides until the audio has completed on slide. I wrote a variable "Set Media Completes to value true when Audio 1 completes." Then I applied it to a trigger " Jump to next slide when user clicks or swipes next if Media completes = value True." Default value of variable is False.

I applied this variable and trigger to all my slides and it works on the first slide however on the subsequent slides the user can advance before the audio completes. I even tried renaming the audio track on the second slide to see if it would prevent it but no luck. Ideas?

If you want to reuse the same variable on multiple slides, you need to reset it to False at the beginning of each slide.

Hi Michael,

Thanks for your response. I don’t understand how I reset the variable to default value of false for each slide. False is the default value I see when I select the variable icon.

Hey Michael, I figured out resetting to false. Thanks.
