Next button doesn't work after Previous button used
Hello everyone,
I've published several Storyline360 courses using SCORM 1.2, and I'm noticing a similar bug in many of my courses, though I can't figure out what's causing it.

Hi, Lance.
Thank you for sharing your screenshot with your triggers! If you can share the .story file here, I'm happy to take a look and test for you, but in the meantime, here's what I noticed:
- Your slide triggers are canceling each other. The first one has no conditions attached, so it's telling Storyline to disable the button as soon as the timeline starts. You also have two triggers that change it to Normal when the variable is False and when the variable is True.
- You are using layers, not slides, so the timeline will not re-start (causing the triggers mentioned above not to work as expected, even if the conditions are correctly set).
- The button's visited state is built-in, so you don't need to add a trigger to call it. As soon as the button is clicked, the visited state will be automatically triggered.
Let me know if this helps or if you'd like us to take a look at your project.
Thank you again Becca and Maria. Maria, that was very helpful. I have also found that each interactive slide needs it's own variables with their own names. For example if you're using NextButton, the first slide would be NextButton, then the next interactive slide should be NextButton1, the next NextButton2, etc. otherwise only the first slide will behave how you want and not the subsequent slides. It's working famously now. Thank you so very much again for your time, i appreciate you!
