Remove Prev and Next Button from a Layers
Hello
Is there a way to have the next and prev button from the slide navigation control removed from the slide layer?
I have multiple layers on a slide and I have created a close button on eac...
Hi Joey,
The 'Prev' and 'Next' buttons can only be switched on/off at the base layer level - as far as I know, you can't switch them off per layer.
If you wanted to use the default player controls (so the navigation controls remain consistant with the rest of your project), you could try the following:
- Create a T/F variable for each layer i.e. Layer1, Layer2 etc. and set it to FALSE
- Add a trigger to each layer that adjusts the variable to TRUE when the timeline starts
- Create a 'warning' layer that advises the user that they must view all items before they can proceed
- Add a trigger to the 'Next' button that shows the 'warning' layer when the user clicks it if 'Layer1' OR 'Layer2' etc. = FALSE
- Add a second trigger to the 'Next' button that jumps to the next slide when the user clicks it if 'Layer1' AND 'Layer2' etc = TRUE
Just a thought...

I know this is a pretty old post, but thank you for the "warning layer" idea! That is exactly what I was missing in my course and I was having so much trouble coming up with that for some reason. Thanks!
