    Hi cmarie021​,

    There are a couple of ways to go about this, and here's one. First, make sure you're sure you're adjusting all the appropriate variables to True (there were a couple that didn't have triggers to make them True). Then, add the following trigger to each Continue button on each layer:

    You can make this trigger on one layer, copy and paste onto each layer, and then make sure "next-button 1" on the base layer is selected.

    I'm attaching a copy of the file with these suggested edits.

    Cute illustration btw! 😊

cmarie021​ : And here's yet another way: Don't use hotspots. Instead, use shapes with a solid fill set to 100% transparency. You can add a Visited state to the shapes, and enable Next based on all of the shapes being Visited. 

 

Note: The states could also be used in conditions for a trigger that disables Next when the timeline starts.

  • A “when timeline starts” triggers runs every time the user reaches the slide—even if the Slide Properties are set to “Resume saved state.”  Therefore, if you don’t want the trigger to run in some situations, you need to add conditions to the trigger.
