TIP: Controlling the NEXT Button 101
It's great to let users explore content on their own. But sometimes you need to ensure they view the full timelines on the slides and complete the interactions. For example, this might be required ...
Hi Judy,
Some really helpful content there, thanks for sharing!
I'm having a bit of trouble with slide attached. I was hoping you could offer a solution.
I've got 3 buttons, 2 set to disabled until the first has been visited and the subsequent layers seen.
I have a variable that says whether or not the 1st button has been set to T/F based on whether it's visited or not.
And I'm trying to make it so that Button 2's state turns to Normal once one of the 3 'answer' layers have been shown i.e. once the variable changes to True and the final layer in that trigger sequence has been seen and closed.
No matter what I try, it doesn't work properly. I have to go through the layers shown from clicking button 1, then once back on the base layer, have to click Button 1 again for Button 2's state to change. I've tried when the cursor hovers over the page, but that requires the cursor leaving the page and then returning. I've tried quite a few things but no luck!
Hoping you can help!!
Or am I trying to do something I needn't bother trying? Would it be better to cover the whole layer with semi-transparent colour, and just have a trigger saying 'change state of button 2 when button 1 is visited' - omitting variables altogether?
