Slide is skipping to next slide without touching next button
Good morning! I have attached the storyline 360. Slide 4 (Four Key Reminders) has a base layer and one other layer. When viewing course, slide 4 shows the base layer then by pressing next you get the base layer but then immediately skips to next slide 1.8 (new elements to the CCPs). I've been trying to problem-solve the trigger I need but cannot figure it out. Need your help please
thanks
Karen
Triggers fire in order so you need a way to stop it from jumping to the next slide, you can have an object off slide that changes state or a variable, I have built out two slides that do either option
thank you so much! So much learning!
I have another similar question but the slide is complicated with buttons. On slide 1.5 3 button when you push the 3rd button there is a flicker of the layer page, text block. The layer is to come on after pushing NEXT of slide 4 Feature 3 as it does now.
How can I make a variable and a trigger to prevent flicker of layer slide when the learner hits the 3rd button - only to show after the person hits 3rd button then takes it to the slide 4 Feature 2 then back to 3 button page on layer
thanks
Hi Karen,
Happy to check this for you!
Here's a recording of what I see on my end when I test Slide 1.5 of your project file. I'm not seeing any flickering, but the behavior might be different for you. Would you be willing to upload a Peek 360 recording of the behavior you're seeing so we can take a closer look at it?
When you push the 3rd button - you get a ride lined box that should show up after you have viewed 3rd button but shows up before too - just a flickering. Please see Peak 360 link - thanks

sorry - should say red lined box
Hi Karen!
Thank you for sharing the screen recording! That was super helpful.
I see what you’re saying about the layer appearing before jumping to the next slide. This occurs when there are multiple actions for a specific object and one action is going to take priority.
One way to control this is by using variables. I’ve attached an updated .story file which includes a variable added to 4.1 Feature 3 and a modified trigger on 1.5 to ensure the user jumps to the slide before seeing the layer. I’m also linking a screen recording that my colleague Lauren created if you’d like to see the steps to build this.
Please let me know if you need anything else!

I would love to see Lauren's steps to build this please!
thank you so much for being so helpful!
Hi Karen,
You can click on the hyperlinked "screen recording" text in Steven's last response to see a video of Lauren's steps to make the changes in your file. Let me know if the hyperlinks are being removed from our messages!
