Help cycling through images

Hi all,

Basically, I want to have a two buttons, one labeled next and the other labeled previous. There will be 10 images, and when the user selects "next" I want it to go to the next one, and with "previous" go to the previous one.

I've tried using layers, but I have an embedded web file on the left side of the screen that I want to be static and not reload between clicks (which happens when I change layers).

Does anyone have a solution for this? The embedded file really throws a wrench in this.

 

Best,

David Smith

  • Hi David, is the embedded file on the BASE slide and not repeated on the layers?

  • Have you tried using states? Keep track of where you are, and change the state when the button is clicked.

    Add 1 to variable currentGraphic when user clicks Next if currentGraphic is < 10 (subtract if  Previous and > 1).

    Change state of [object] to state 1 when currentGraphic changes if currentGraphic = 1, etc.
