Trigger that monitors the value of a variable rather than the Change of the variable.

Aug 08, 2016

I'm having issues with variables across slides. 

On Slide A I have a trigger that is set to change a state of button 1 if variable X is changed.  If I change it on this slide, everything works perfectly. 

But I actually have Slide B that changes variable X.  When I return to Slide A, the state of Button 1 has not changed.  The closest I can figure is that the trigger in Slide A only monitors when variable X changes on Slide A, not across the project.

I'm racking my brain for a solution and keep coming up short.

After submitting my question the answer popped up in my feed. :/ go figure.

it seems I have to set a trigger to start on slide start with a condition.

I would think there is an easier way, but this works too.
