Storyline 3: Controlling when the NEXT button appears
Good morning, everyone.
I want to keep the NEXT button from appearing on a slide until after the user has viewed the lightbox slide and then closed it. I can't figure it out. I appreciate the help...
Shel,
Opening a lightbox stops the timeline on the original slide, and closing it resumes. Acually, closing it resumes the timeline even if it was previously stopped. So it's pretty easy to trigger actions from the timeline after a lightbox, if you pause it first.
In the sample, Method 1 is perhaps the easiest, but I think Method 2 may provide more flexibility.
Thanks for the info, Walter. I wasn't able to open the file; I got a compatibility error because of "text scrollbars." I use text scrollbars, so I'm not sure what the problem was, but I wanted to let you know. I'll see if I can make it work based on the note you shared. One question: When you say, "If you pause it first," can you elaborate? Pause the lightbox? Thanks!
