Using a variable to jump to a slide
I have SlideX with 7 shapes that have triggers that jump to 7 different slides. The target slides all have an image with a trigger to jump back to SlideX
I made a number variable and each time the...
I was trying it the other way (Jump to slide 'new' when variable changes with condition that var = 7) but I just tried your way... I had to move the respective triggers that added the +1 to the var on each slide to first position, but it worked. I tried making the trigger on SlideX say when timeline = 0, however, so that there wouldn't be that split second flash of SlideX before 'new slide" appears... unfortunately, that does not work. There's still a quick flash of Slide X. But this is progress!
Thank you for your kind assistance.
Hi Roberta
if you want them to come back to slide X and not flash you could have the next button disabled on Slide X and have the next button enabled.
So the triggers would be
- change state of next button to disabled when timeline starts on Slide X
- change the state of next button to normal when timeline starts on Slide X on condition that variable =7
- jump to totally different slide when user clicks the next button
