Revisiting a slide with layers
I have a slide with 3 layers. The next button works correctly at the end but when I revisit the slide, the next button never appears again to move forward. I have tried all 3 options in properties fo...
Based on that limited description, here's my best guess about what is happening:
- You've got a trigger that disables Next when the timeline starts.
- You've got another trigger to enable Next when something happens that indicates the 3 layers have been viewed.
- When the user returns to the slide, the disable-Next trigger runs again. But the "when" for the enable-Next trigger doesn't happen again. Thus, Next remains disabled.
To avoid that problem, the disable-Next trigger needs whatever condition(s) will prevent the trigger from running again if the layers have been viewed. For example, conditions might be based on objects being in a specified state or on the value of a variable.
