Next button not working
Think I have over complicated a slide with the 3 tabs. I have it all set so that the Next button is hidden from the start, and the tabs are disabled until end of timeline on baselayer. The user then clicks and closes through the 3 tabs. On the 3rd tab, when the user closes it, a lightbox slide comes up with a video. Once that's closed it goes back to the base layer with the Next button visible. However when I click on it nothing happens. If I add in the trigger "when the user clicks next jump to next slide", it moves to the next slide straight after the timeline ends on the baselayer and you dont get a chance to click through the tabs. What am i missing? Help please

The Next button can't go anywhere unless you tell it where to go. So you need to keep the "jump to next slide when user clicks Next" trigger.
The slide advances automatically because that's what the Slide Properties tell it to do:
The "Slide advances" setting needs to be changed to "By user."
Other notes:
You don't need triggers to disable the "Invisible" buttons. You can set the Initial state to Disabled.
Also, it's possible that a user might click the #3 tab first. Because the #3 layer shows the lightbox that then enables Next, they could advance without seeing layers #1 and #2. So you either need to force them to click the tabs in order, or show the lightboxed video some other way.
