Scrollbar disables the Next button on return to slide

I have a course which uses the scrollbar and hides the next button until the timeline reaches a certain point. 

The scrollbar is set to "Allow drag after completion".

The Next button status is linked to a true/false variable.

However, if the user moves to the next slide before the scrollbar completes, and then returns to the slide, the Next button is disabled; despite the True/False variable being set to True. 

Additionally, I have no trigger that disable the Next button.

Is there a way to correct this?

  • Additionally. The only way to enable the Next button is to press Play on the scroll bar.

    Is this a glitch in current functionality?

    I don't remember this happening in other projects.

  • Can you share those two slides? It's a bit challenging to answer the question without seeing what you programmed and what's happening.

     

  • I don't think I can share the files. 

    However, I attached an image of the triggers. I just added the trigger highlighted in blue and that seems to have fixed the problem. 

    But this seems like an awful lot of work to get the Next button and scroll bar to interact correctly.

    Is there a more efficient way?

  • Looks like you got it working. I don't think you'd need the highlighted trigger since the button is going to be normal by default and only changed to hidden if the var=F. So if you revisit the slide and the var is True, the button wouldn't revert to hidden it should be Normal already.
