Controling User Movement

Sep 01, 2017

So I want to a button on the main menu to remain unclickable until the user completes a certain set of slides. Is that possible?

Thank you E-Learning Heroes.

Hi, Crystal:

Here's what most of us would do:

1. Go to slide where button is. Set the initial state of the button to inactive.

2. Create true false variable. You can name it anything but I'll name it "activebutton1." Set initial/default state of variable to false.

3.  Place a trigger on last slide of group you want people to view. Trigger should be to adjust variable (active button1) to true when timeline starts.

4. Go back to slide with button1 on it. Create trigger to adjust state of button 1 when timeline starts to active when variable (activebutton1) is of a value of true. 

Give it a whirl. And post the section here. If it doesn't work, I'll tweak it for you. It's fairly simple, but looks hard in print.  --Daniel
