You can use one radiobutton set in a slide - but this works not, if i wan t to built a calendar using a layer for every month - a radio button set can not be in different layers, am i right? Any idea to solve this?
You're correct that buttons from different layers cannot be grouped into the same button set.
However, you can have multiple button sets on a slide. That means you could have a different button set on each layer.
You could use a variable to track which button was selected from any group of button sets. And, if needed, you could use variables and conditions to program multiple button sets to ensure that only one button appears as selected, even when they're on different layers. But, obviously, that can get complicated.
By the way, if you're only going to show one layer at a time, you don't need triggers to hide other layers when a given layer's timeline starts. That can be done automatically using the Slide Layer Properties:
thank you - i think the (hard) way to solve this is to hide the buttons from one month when jumping to the other month and with the same click, visible the buttons of the next month :-)
