Can button states persist when a user leaves a slide?

Hello. I have three buttons on a slide that default to hidden and then change state (to "Good", "Needs improvement" or "Too small") based on user input numeric entries.

I want the last state to persist so when the user returns to the slide after visiting other slides, the button will be visible and show in whatever state it was in when the user navigated to a different slide. Is there a way to do this?

It looks to me like what's happening is that when the user comes back to the slide, the numeric entries have persisted but the buttons are hidden.

  • Have you tried setting the slide properties to keep saved state on revisit? Depending on how you set the original state, you may have to rerun the calculation when the timeline starts.

    Thank you Walt. I didn't know about that setting. I still needed to rerun the calculation when the timeline starts, but it's working now.
