Have Next button appear after other pages visited
Hello, I am not able to get a Next button unhidden after button links have been followed.
There are 3 buttons on a main slide that go to 3 individual exercise slides, which then all lead back t...
These triggers on the menu slide will never run, because the variables change on other slides.
The attached file shows how I'd program this.
- I put the triggers to control the NEXT button on a layer that will "Reset to initial state" when revisited. There's also a trigger on the base to show the layer. There's nothing on the layer, so it's invisible to the user.
- The triggers on the layer run when its timeline starts, which will happen every time the user returns to the slide. Those triggers control the NEXT button with conditions that check the variables that indicate whether the other slides have been visited.
- You'll see that my trigger changes the NEXT button to Disabled instead of Hidden. I do that because it keeps the button in place, which prevents the lower navigation items from moving around.
