Enabling Custom and Player Next Buttons
Hey Everyone- This is the second time I am coming for advice and expertise on Storyline 360 next button functionality (though, this time it is a different issue). I think we are quickly becoming foe...
A few notes:
- All the triggers that change buttons to Disabled will also run again if the user returns to the slide. As I said before, instead of triggers, you could simply set the Initial State to Disabled.
- I can't tell why things freeze if a previous-layer button is clicked while the current layer is playing. State-changing triggers shouldn't cause that. It might be an issue with all the audio. It might be an issue with the properties. Since that's "unexpected behavior," I suggest you contact the support staff: https://access.articulate.com/support/contact
- Personally, I'd use Dialog layers, and add a copy of the necessary graphic(s) on each layer.
- If you have additional issues, you should start a new discussion.
Hey Judy-
Thanks for the consist help on the discussion boards! You are always a huge help.
Yeah, I can't change the format of the button states for some reason, or I would have made them visibly different.
When you say, "on each layer, hide those semi-transparent shapes when the timeline ends", am I just removing the "show until end" feature for each semi-transparent shape and leaving a bit of space between the end of the timeline and the shapes?
FYI: I edited my original comment to provide a different solution. Why? I hadn't thought about accessibility.
Yes, a semi-transparent over a button will prevent a user from clicking/tapping the button. But it won't prevent someone from using the button with a keyboard.
