Slide does not work correctly when replayed
Your custom Next button has the Initial state of Hidden. The Slide Properties for revisiting are Reset to initial state. Thus, every time the user revisits the slide, that button will be Hidden.
The triggers that change it to Normal run when variables change. However, if a variable is already True, and a trigger changes it to True, Storyline doesn't count that as the variable changing, because nothing happens to the value. So those triggers don't rerun when the user revisits the slide.
There are a few things you could do:
Change the Slide Properties to Resume Saved State. This would keep the button in the Normal state. However, the timeline won't replay.
If you want the timeline to replay, do this:
- Change the Initial state of the button to Normal.
- Add this trigger:
Be sure the conditions are connected with "or" (not "and"). That means the trigger will run if either condition is met. But it won't run if both the variables = True.
Hello Judy,
Thank you very much for your feedback.
I have decided on the solution: “Reset to initial state” and have added the Tigger you suggested.
Now the next button appears on the slide, but not only when the two buttons on the slide are clicked (which should be a prerequisite for getting aheadand for the appearance of the Next-button), but it appears right at the beginning.I have also given both layers the status “Reset to initial state”.
According to the settings this should not happen. The Next button should only appear when the other two buttons have been clicked.
It would be great if you could take another look at this.
Many thanks for the great support.
