Variables within triggers not working consistently
Hello, I am working on a project that includes some interaction from the user/viewer. Some of my slides have buttons that, when clicked, populate a new layer with audio. The buttons do not have to ...
Yup, the problem is using the same set of variables on multiple slides...
Variables maintain their value until a trigger changes it. So, as I said above, after the variables change to True on the first slide where they're used, they remain True. And that's why the next slide jumps after viewing just one layer. The conditions on the trigger are met before the user gets to that slide.
So, yes, you need different triggers for each slide. For easier programming (and troubleshooting), I suggest using a naming convention that indicates the slide and the layer. And keep the names as short as possible.
For example, the variables on the first slide could be s1_L1done, s1_L2done, s1_L3done, and s1_L4done. The variables on the second slide could be s2_L1done, s2_L2done, s2_L3done, and s2_L4done. And so on.
Hi,
I need some help please. I have created two different variables to ensure users are directed to the appropriate slides. The triggers are attached here. The problem is when I click on a certain button on the slide labelled "live", it keeps taking me to the same slide (#9.1) as opposed to the one I created the trigger for. It seems storyline is not reading past the first to triggers, each with different variables.
Can anyone please help as I'm a new storyline360 user?
Thank you
