Hi,  My name is Rosanne and for one course I made a series of pick-one slide where the learner needs to choose one box (in a row of 19) and then click submit. So there are 19 vertical bullets with...

I'm actually having the same problem, but for a freeform "Pick Many" slide. I have triggers for when Button A is selected, Character A's state changes to Normal (from hidden.) 

But if a user changes their mind prior to submitting, and they de-select Button A, Character A does not disappear. 

Of course, I've tried making a second trigger: "When the state of Button A is Normal - Change state of Character A to Hidden", but it doesn't work. In fact, it prevents the initial trigger (Change state of Character A to Normal, when Button A is Selected) from functioning. 

(The initial state of each character is Hidden.)

I've also tried using the visited state - "When the state of Button A is Visited - Change state of Character A to Hidden" but this also didn't work. 

Am I missing something here?

    Of course, after a day of playing around, and moments after deciding to finally post my question here, I figured it out, and it is such an easy change! 

    "When the state of Button A is not Selected - Change state of Character A to Hidden." 

    I didn't realize I could change the "is" part of the trigger editor to "is not."
