The trigger to change the continue button to Normal is set to run when a variable changes.
However, that variable changes on other slides. A trigger can only recognize a variable change when it happens on the same slide as the trigger.
Try this instead: have the trigger run when the Timeline starts, with the condition based on the variable value.
Note: You've got triggers adding 1 to the number variable whenever the timeline starts on certain slides. That means the number will go up if a user revisits any of those slides.
I think it'd be better to use T/F variables to track completion of the sections.
- Create one T/F variable (with the default value of False) per section.
- Have a trigger adjust the corresponding variable when the user completes a section.
- On the Overview, use conditions that require each T/F variable to be True before the continue button will change to Normal.
