    Hi TLD 

    If there are a couple of slides you need to apply this functionality to, then it could be feasible using the new "set focus" trigger included in the March release of SL.

    For example, you could use a variable to track the focus position on elements. Creating a numeric variable called "focusLocation", default value zero, which could then be set to a specific number based on the interaction with a button. In this example, set to "1" when the user clicks on "Menu Button 1"

    If then user then exits, and then re-enters the slide, a "timeline starts" trigger can run that sets the focus to the button, based on the value of "focusLocation" being "1".

    Depending on how many buttons you have, you could end up with several of these "Set focus" triggers.
