Triggers: What am I missing?

After I implemented NickBaca​'s solution to use Javascript to get the keystrokes working, I tackled the hint button, which needs to change with each question. The trigger action showed all of the answers on the first click so I moved the triggers to a new layer, and the question button opens a new layer with the triggered answer. But now it's not showing the answer and opening and setting the state of the second question and jumping to the third question. 

Oh great trigger wizards out there.... what am I doing wrong and how can I fix this? Everything works perfectly with the question and answers. Just not the hint from the question button. 

 

  • EUREKA! After a few more hours of fiddling, I moved the answers for the hint question to layers, and changed the question button to 5 different versions of the button, stacked on top of each other. When the user clicks the question, it opens the corresponding layer, executes all the other triggers and hides the existing button. 

    I don't know why this didn't work with states of the question button, but it kept triggering extra things. At this point, after three days of fiddling, I don't care. IT WORKS! 

    I've attached the corrected file.
