Trigger Trouble

Oct 25, 2016

Hello!! I am working on a project with a list of items in separate text boxes.  When I set a trigger on one of the text boxes, that trigger appears on all text boxes on the slide.  When I attempt to update the trigger on any of the text boxes, they all update.  What could be causing this unusual phenomenon? 

Thank you in advance, I LOVE these discussions.  So helpful.

This is a rough copy.  When you click the Section name on the left, modules names are displayed on the right on a new layer.  The module names are supposed to launch new scenes.  However, when I create the trigger to launch the Module 1 Scene, it sets all module triggers with the same trigger.  when I attempt to modify the Launch Module 2 trigger, it modifies all triggers with that update. Weird.

Hi David,

I wasn't able to reproduce what you're seeing. I added in a second trigger for your "text box 2" on the slide layer for your first slide to take you to your "Module 1" slide. When I preview the entire project, each text box appears to take me to the correct location. I attached your project file below that I added the second trigger to. Please let me know if I've overlooked something!
