Next button, variables, moving to next slide
Greetings:
I just found out that you can set the prev/next buttons in player and that way the user cannot move forward until the end of the timeline in the slide. From the same post where I learne...

Hi Ashley,
While you can use variables for an interaction type like this, I like to use the button states.
- In both the Director button and Managers button, I duplicated the Visited state and named it “completed”. In my experience using the Visited state can get a little wonky and I find the button flipping back to normal. Using a custom button state insures that button states won’t change.
- On the Director and Managers layers, I added a trigger to the closebutton that sets the state of the Director button and Managers button to completed when clicked. Please notice I have that set to happen before the layer closes. If the trigger to change the state appears after the close layer trigger, the button state will not change.
- On your base layer, I set a trigger to change the state of the Next button to active once the Director and Managers buttons are set to a state of “completed”
- Also on the base layer, I set the state of the Next button to disabled to make it clearer to the learner that they have to complete both stakeholders content.
I attached a working file. Please let me know if you have any questions or need me to walk you through anything else.
PS - If you DO want a working version using variables, I'm happy to do so. Just let me know.
Thanks!
