Attn Dave: Accordion
Hello,
I built a 10 slide layer accordion for a course I am working on and now I am stuck. The context in one of the tabs is a video. I want to ensure that the learner watches the entire video before moving forward. I know I may need to add a variable, but I am not sure where.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Hi Inita,

Hello,
Thank you both of your response and willingness to assist me. Here is the slide I created.
Thanks for sharing your file, Inita. I'm looking at it right now and will share a possible solution.
In the meantime, I think this video should help:
Hi Inita -
Using visited states for the base layer's panels combined with timeline triggers on each slide layer is one way to control the next button.
I attached the updated .story project and recorded a quick screencast for you: https://360.articulate.com/review/content/d457b977-53ae-4a7e-afc5-2a5ce777f2bb/review
David,
Thank you for this walk-thru. This was helpful, however I want to ensure that learners watch the full video on the Dis Identity and Schizp layers. Changing the states to visit will ensure they have clicked each layer before moving forward, but is it possible to each a condition for the video?
Any help would be also.
Hi Inita - In that case, you can change the timeline trigger from "When timeline starts" to "When timeline ends" for each video layer.
Dave,
Thank you so much! This is perfect. I really appreciated all of your assistance and your tutorial. I am getting better each time I watch one of your trainings.
Glad that worked, Inita. And thanks for the kind words on the trainings. If you're up for it, please share your example in last week's accordion challenge: https://community.articulate.com/articles/using-accordion-interactions-in-e-learning-2023-403. I'm happy to add your example to the recap post.
