Thin red arrow between slides within a scene
In Storyline 360, there are red lines that indicate the connection between slides within the scene. Most of the time, if you hover over the thin red line, it glows and a pop-up indicates the trigger...
For anyone else looking for this solution, I received feedback from Matthew, Senior Customer Support Engineer at Articulate. When I disable the Next button on the Result slide, the 'phantom' red line appears. To avoid this consequence, I was advised to add a trigger to hide the Next button at the start of the timeline and disable the trigger that jumps to the next slide when using the Next button. Thank you MatthewQ . I will be giving this a go on my next project.
Could you include a screenshot of the triggers you have set up for slide 3.11?
I am happy to do that. It is a result slide so it has a base and two layers. I also uploaded a second capture of the slide navigation. This happens in other projects as well and it seems to hold on to the sequence of the slide numbers. For example. there is a red line from 11 to 12.
Based on these screenshots, it seems you have triggers on the layers that cause the navigation lines to all the slides except 2.12.
In the story view, did you check to see if under slide properties the slide is set to advance automatically? This may be causing storyline to hold the slide sequence.
That is a good thought. If I understand this correctly, the slide properties should be set for Slide advances -> by user. And, (heavy sigh), it is. Were you referring
to another setting?
This is a different file that I am working on today. It has the same mysterious thin red arrow that links 9.11 Level 2 Q5 to 9.112 Level 3 Q1. The desired link is from 9.11 Level 2 Q5 to 9.6 Results.
