Button Set State/Variable Issue
Good day. I have a slide with 5 buttons that I can't seem to get the variable to work correctly. Here is what I would like it to do:
User clicks button #1, the layer shows and then hides at the ...
The reason the first button works is because the Watched variable starts as False (which meets the first condition check requirements), then gets set to True, but never gets set back to False (so the other condition checks never pass).
If you set it back to False on each slide layer, your buttons will revert back to their normal state though (which it sounds like you don't want). Instead of relying on a global 'Watched' variable, it's better to reference the states of your buttons for the condition checks, since the variable doesn't know which video was watched (whereas the states sorta function as their own 'local' variable).
I've also set the layers to prevent clicking on the base layer, so the user can't activate two layers at once.
