Slide Trigger
Hi Articulate Family,
I am updating and modifying a course at work. I am getting stumped on setting up the slide trigger for the second slide in the course labeled topics. I thought I could just go by the screenshot I took of the triggers from the older course.
But hadn't recreated the trigger. When I create a new trigger it keeps the "When the timeline starts" at the top instead of "Change state of" ?
Help,
Stephanie
It would help to see a pic of what you're describing.
The Trigger Wizard has areas to specify the action, when it occurs, and any conditions that should be applied.
You should be able to edit any of those items.
For more info, here's the User Guide entry about triggers:
Hi Julia,
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly! I attempted to attach a screenshot but the discussion thread wouldn't take a jpn/pdf or any form I had the screenshot in... I was able to create a new trigger my dilemma was I couldn't recreate a trigger with the "Change state", then the "When the Timeline starts". The order is upside down if that makes any scene. It's problem because I am learning what to do on the fly... With, all of that said, I need to get my project to review by tomorrow but I need to get my triggers working so the reviewers can move through the course...
Please advise?
Thanks again,
Stephanie
Stephanie,
Does un-selecting the "Group" check box (see image) resolve the issue?
Hi Veronica,
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly! Yes, that did resolve that issue. So, when I see the - it means that trigger is grouped? I am going to continue creating/modifying the triggers I will probably reach back out if I run into another issue. Can I contact you or still post to the whole group?
Thanks again,
Stephanie
Hi Veronica,
I attempted to create a Variable Trigger but wasn't successful. How do I create this Variable Trigger?
Hi Stephanie! The S1_allobjectsvisited variable looks like a true/false variable type. When you go to create a variable, you can give the variable whatever name you'd like and just set the type to True/False and then set the Default Value to False. Here's a screenshot for reference.
And in case it helps, here's more info on working with variables in Storyline 360.
