"Exit Animations" triggered by timeline

Is there a way to prevent a layer from hiding at the end of it's own timeline when using "Exit Animations"? When a user clicks on a button, a layer animates on. I want the layer to hide when the user clicks another button. But if I use exit animations, the layer will hide at the end of the 5 second timeline.

This is a design flaw. The slide should not hide based on the timeline unless the builder wanted it to happen that way!

Anyone know of a workaround to this other than just not using exit animations?

  • After you give the star an exit animation, you can fire a trigger "When...animation completes...on Star...Exit animation."

    I see this is an older post, however, as a new user of Storyline, I was puzzling this issue as well. My solution: pause the timeline before it reaches the end.
