Using variable to display content depending on the learners course navigation

Feb 16, 2021

Hi, I'm developing an open navigation course that shares content between a number of different scenes but the content's application is slightly different in each scene. I've developed a set of common slides with the common information but was wondering if its possible to use variables to add/display scene specific content (objects, layers) based in the scene (navigation path) that the learner is in. 

What I'm hoping to do is provide the scene specific content and avoid the user from having to review the common content that they may have covered in a previous scene but would like them to have the option to review it if they so desire. 

Thank you in advance for any assistance or guidance that anyone can provide.

Set triggers something like this:

Set state of textbox [common material17] to State2 when timeline starts on this slide if variable [common material 17 viewed] = true.

State2 of textbox says "Click here to review common material 17".

Trigger on text box is "Set state of textbox to Normal when user clicks textbox.

Could be adapted to any object or to layers.
