Forced question order - regardless of which button is clicked.

Hey Walt!

Thank you again for building upon this and the suggested triggers. So full disclosure, I've been at it for 9 hours (I know, judgment deserved on this) and I haven't been able to accomplish the triggers you've suggested. This is definitely due to my rusty Storyline skills, so if you aren't too sick of me, I'm coming back to you requesting a bit more help. 

I've been focusing on just getting the top row to work as a starting point. 
- I have X and O states created for the top three triangles
- I created 3 new states for the question text box that lives on layer 1 (the states are "Question 1", "Question 2" and "Question 3". After this, things got hairy. 

On layer 1, you advised that I "Change the state of the text box to match variable 2, as Richard suggested.  That shows the next question." I couldn't figure out what this trigger should look like (you'll see I have a trigger on layer 1, but it's not correct). 

Issue number 2: Change the state of the square (according to Variable1)  to either “X” or “O”. I couldn't figure out where in a trigger I would establish the "according to variable1" part of this.  Again, you'll see another (very wrong) attempted trigger on layer 1. 

Are you able to look at my storyline file and help me get the first row of rectangles functioning? I feel awful asking for your time this way, but after 9 hours of failing, I'm trying to muster up the courage to ask for help. Totally understand if you aren't able to!
