Trigger to unhide continue button before exit course not working.

KimberlyFlet427​: As Carl suggested, you could use separate courses and LMS settings to "encourage" users to complete the activity. 

To address your problem using the one course: The triggers you describe sound okay. That should change the Continue button before the user exits. 

You say the Continue button isn't Normal when returning to the course. It sounds like the Slide Properties for revisiting might be "Reset to Initial State." If so, switch to "Resume saved state." 

Another potential issue: Do you have a trigger to change the state of the button to Hidden when the timeline starts? That trigger will run every time the user visits/revisits the slide, even if the slide is set to "Resume saved state." ("When the timeline starts on this slide" should really be called "When the user reaches this slide.") Instead of using a trigger to hide the button, set its Initial state to Hidden.

And if neither of those solutions work, here's one more long shot. It's possible that the updated button state isn't properly included in the suspend/resume data. The fix for that is to go to another slide, which forces the program to save the data. For example, instead of exiting, have the exit button jump to a "confirmation" slide without any of the built-in navigation. That slide would just have an "Confirm Exit" button and a "Return" button.
