Storyline apparently doesn't register triggers anymore
So I'm trying to advance to the next layer by having the learner press the CTRL + K key after typing a name in the text entry field. For no reason whatsoever, Storyline doesn't register this. I trie...
TextEntry3 will equal the typed value once Text Entry 1 loses focus. However, pressing Ctrl + K and clicking on Text Entry 1 means that technically, Text Entry 1 remains in focus. As long as this persists, TextEntry3 will keep awaiting its new value. Consequently, the condition "if TextEntry3 = value Ronda Sherman" will never be met unless Text Entry 1 loses focus. I suggest modifying your trigger to "When the user presses ENTER after clicking on this layer If TextEntry3 = Ronda Sherman." ENTER will ensure that the value of TextEntry3 variable is updated and Text Entry 1 is no longer in focus. Additionally, you may create an error layer that will only appear "When the user presses ENTER after clicking on this layer if TextEntry3 is not equal to Ronda Sherman". Example below. Also, you can refer to the attached video demonstrating this interaction.
Hmmm, that's an unfortunate limitation as I'm trying to replicate the actual system here. In the system, the way to complete the action would be through CTRL + K. There's really no way of creating a trigger or other solution to process this command? Removing the text entry value condition out of the equation?
