Using States to activate button

May 02, 2019

HI, I have built a storyline activity where once the state of all objects are NOT normal, the state of a custom submit button will change from disabled to Normal. However, it is not working and I can't figure out what is wrong with the trigger. I am attaching my SL file. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Two things:

 

Start by changing this trigger:

 from "are not Normal" to "are Selected". Both Selected and Hover, just like all of the rest of us, think they are perfectly normal. So those buttons don't have any Not Normal states.

Even so, it may not work, because using "State of" in a trigger this way frequently has problems if the number of items exceeds 5, which yours does. In that case, you may need to put a trigger on each of the poor and excellent choices. It would read "change state of Submit when user clicks this button if all the options are in the correct state."
