I have a 2 page tutorial linking from the player. Users can reference the tutorial at any time and return to where they left off, but only from the first page of the tutorial by way of the "Previous" button.
Is it possible to make it so that the user can return from the second page directly to where they left off without going back to the first tutorial page?
There isn't a way to determine where the "left off" based on how the user left and continued to navigate through the course. The previous button will function as a "back" button in sense of a web browser brining the user to the last slide they saw.
If you wanted to program it to go to a specific slide you could do that using slide triggers on the individual slide and previous buttons.
You could try showing the tutorial as a lightbox. If the first slide has navigation to a second slide, the second slide is shown in the light box, and when it is closed, the user is still on the same page.
Thanks to you both for the replies, but I think we have found another way that works. We just added a button with a trigger that directed the viewer back to the "Previous scene" which, thank goodness, is a selection. the we removed the "Back" button from the second tutorial slide player. This has worked beautifully no matter what scene we tried it from.

Thanks for that update Constantine and glad you figured out a method that works for you.
