Changing state of buttons after section is completed.

See attached a revised file where I fixed the tab for section 1. You need to change the triggers that set the state of the tabs to completed from 'When variable changes' to 'When timeline starts'. The 'When variable changes' option only applies to the slide where the change actually happens, that's why your tabs do currently not change on subsequent slides. Have a look, hope that makes sense.

Hi Kyle!

Looks like Michael has popped in to assist you here :)

Thank you so much Michael. I knew I was missing something. I remember them saying this earlier in the thread too. I can't believe I missed it. Well, I've only been using this application for 3 weeks, so I'm getting used to it.

This community is amazing. I owe everything I've come up with so far to all the great information I've received through the community.

Funny thing is, I expected such a great quick response as I posted this first query on here.

Thanks again,

Kyle

Well I'm glad your expectation was fulfilled Kyle :) Thanks for popping in with an update.

i am trying to follow the instructions and tutorial.  The attached document shows what i have done so far.  The final step is what i am having issues with.  how do i disable to next button on the diagram page then set it to normal after all the markers have changed to completed and all the slides have been viewed? 

Hi Eric, 

What is adjusting the value of your variables? You could adjust the state of the next button based on all the variables being equal to a particular value. 

If you're able to share your .story file here it's a bit easier to weigh in and offer thoughts looking at your set up. 

Hello. I have been trying this for a while but it just doesn't work.

I'm using a variable to change the state of each button and it works, but when I try to use the same variable to show a layer, it doesn't. I think the problem related to AND.

Thank you.

Hi Lu

your variables aren't firing - when is the variable supposed to change to True? The button is changing to visited because that is the correct behaviour of the built in state when the user clicks the button.

Glad that Wendy was able to assist you here Lu! Thanks for popping in with an update.

Hi everyone

I have tried everything on this thread regarding my programme and I cannot get it to do what I want. 

Essentially I have 6 sections that I want students to complete and after the last question in each section I want them to return to the master menu slide and the section button to become grey so they know they have completed that section. Once all 6 are grey I want then to take the students to an overall results slide (which I haven't made yet as I can't even do do the first bit!)

I have done the following:

- Created a variable named 'complete' and when the student clicks on a button it changes the state of the variable to true.

- Students then need to click the next button to go back to the master slide

- The section button has been set to change to a custom 'complete' state when the variable 'complete' is equal to true. 

However the section button is not greying out - so it's not changing state. 

I have attached my programme - I have only attempted to apply this on the Wrist section so far. Any fix I can then apply to the remaining 5 sections. 

Help would be greatly appreciated!
