    Hi MaximilianoForm - here's how I achieved this for the recent 'Job Aids' E-Learning Heroes Challenge.

    CHRISTMAS CHECKLIST
    https://bit.ly/elhc486 

    'Offstage', to the left of the slide area, I have placed a hidden shape with a 0.10 fade entrance animation. I have named this shape 'Reset Print Screen Icon'.



    When the user presses the PRINT button, three things happen:

    • The state of the PRINT button is changed to Hidden 
    • The Print slide function is triggered
    • The state of 'Reset Print Screen Icon' changes to Normal

    When the entrance animation completes on this shape, a trigger changes the PRINT button back to Normal.

    And then another trigger also reverts the Reset Print Screen Icon back to Hidden.

    This has the effect of temporarily hiding the PRINT button while the print screen function takes place.

    As with all things Storyline, there's more than one way to do this, but I have used this method for a while and found it to be reliable.

    Hope this helps?
