Layer not staying on screen and automatically advancing to next slide

Hi Avi,

I'd like to help you with this layers and trigger not showing correctly. Can you share the Storyline file with me so I can take a look at it?

Have you checked the answer layer's timeline? You can try to change the answer layer's timeline marker if it ends sooner.

Feel free to send the file so I can help you take a look at it.

Yeah I did check the timeline and it even extended it a little but it doesn't even stay on the screen for the duration of the timeline. It literally flashes and moves on to the next slide it's so weird.

Hi Avi,

I'm now looking into the slides. Thanks for quickly sharing the file and activity numbers.

Thank you!

Hi Avi,

I just checked the file and great news! It's fully working from my end. I am also using the same version as yours, Articulate Storyline 360 and the slide only advances Next whenever I click the next buttons for Activities 14, 15 and 16.

I tried guessing the answers to your essay questions and then the answer layer appears, tand there it was, waiting for me to click Next. Then, slides only move forward after I clicked the triangular blue next button.

This seems to be a bug. To attempt fixing it, just save your changes and try to re-launch your Articulate360 to open your Emitters_Mod3_v4.story

Please help the Articulate Team track and resolve bugs such as these my filling out this form.

Let me know if the save change then relaunching worked. Otherwise, send a reply in this discussion.

Did you test the slide or the scene? Because I have tried on 3 different computers including my own laptop which has a newer version and it is still doing the same thing. 

I definitely think its a bug. I think I am going to just create another slide instead of a layer as a work around.

Thank you so much for looking into it for me.

Hi Avi,

Really sorry you're running into this trouble. I'd love to take a look at your file. Would you mind sending it to me here? I'll take a closer look at it and let you now what I find. Thank you!

Hi - this is describing, almost exactly, a challenge I am having right now. Oddly, sometimes it runs fine when previewing Scene rather than Slide, but this isn't consistent.  And the "quick skip" to the next slide is always happening in Review.  The features of my course mirror all of the details of Avi's except that mine are drag-and-drop slides rather than text entry.  And I have two layers (correct and incorrect) set up according to outcome.  Both are behaving the same: flash appearance and skip to next slide.  (Slide Advances by User, Hide Slide Layer when Timeline Finishes is unchecked, only triggers to advance to next slide are the Continue buttons within the two slide layers.)

Has there been any further findings on this particular case, or should I go ahead send along the file (if someone's willing to have a look)?

Hello Andria,

It looks like Avi may have worked directly with another community member and did not reach out to our support team to share the file, so I do not have any additional information to share with you here.

We'd be happy to take a look and help you with your file. With your permission, please share your project file so we can investigate what's happening. You can share it publicly here, or send it to me privately by uploading it here. I'll delete it when I'm done troubleshooting.

This issue is reappearing for me as well now, and I can't put a finger on it. 

The layers in question only have timer triggers to close the layers, except for one single button.

However, my layer acts as if that button is being clicked, even though I haven't done so.
