Not allowing user to click through steps before clicking in order
Hi,
I have 6 steps (boxes), each step has a layer. How do i set it up so that the user is not able to click ahead in the steps because they click them in order?
Then after that, how do i set it ...
- Create a T/F variable with the default value of False.
- Add a trigger that disables the Next button when the timeline starts with the condition that the variable = False.
- Set the Initial State for steps/boxes 2-6 to Disabled. (The Initial State dropdown is near the top of the States panel.)
- On layers 1-5, add triggers that change the subsequent step/box to Normal at the appropriate time (for example, when the timeline of the layer ends).
- On layer 6, add two triggers:
- One trigger should change the Next button to Normal at the appropriate time.
- One trigger should adjust the variable to True. (This will prevent the Next button from being disabled if the user returns to the slide.)
FYI: Here's more info about controlling the Next button: https://community.articulate.com/discussions/articulate-storyline/tip-controlling-the-next-button-101
Hi Judy, thank you very much for your assistance, I have added all triggers as suggested, however I am stuck on the last dot point, would you mind talking me through how to do this one?
- One trigger should adjust the variable to True. (This will prevent the Next button from being disabled if the user returns to the slide.)
