Trigger/Variable Question

Sep 22, 2022

On slide 2.5 we want the user to click each button for the layers and not allow the user to move forward until all layers have been visited. Currently continue button state is set to disabled and is not triggered to continue until all layers are visited using a variable.

However it's not working...can someone help troubleshoot?

Your trigger to enable the Continue button is set to run "When the timeline ends on this slide." But there's no way for the user to click all the buttons by then, because those buttons aren't even clickable until 3 seconds before the timeline ends. So the trigger can never execute. 

You need a better when. If you add a Visited state to the 4 buttons, a trigger could enable Continue when the State is Visited for all 4 buttons.

FYI: This post provides a demo with info about controlling the NEXT button in various situations.
