Visited States not working
I have a slide '2.10 Topic 2: Change Process Standards Continued' that gives the user the option to view 4 different topics and take a quiz. Unfortunately, once they visit each topic and take the quiz it should change the state of 'Number 1' to visit which it isn't.
Here is what should happen:
- click the 'Planning & Coordination' shape
- The 'Planning & Coordination' layer will appear
- Once they've viewed that information, they select 'Next' which opens another layer called 'Planning and Coordination Summary'. From there, they select the Quiz button which takes them to slide (not layer) 2.27 Question 3. When they get the answer right and they click continue, it takes them to slide 2.33 Question 4. Once they complete the question correctly, I have a trigger that sets quizcompleted to value True when user clicks the Continue button. I also have a trigger that takes them back to 'Slide 2.10 Topic 2 which is the base layer' where I have a trigger to set the state of number 1 to visited when the timeline starts on that slide if the Quiz Completed = Value True.
Unfortunately I've tried different variations but cannot get the 'Planning and Coordination' state to change to visited. Support recommended changes the slide properties to 'Resume Saved state' but in doing that, it does not take me back to the base layer 2.10 Topic 2 but rather the Planning and Coordination Summary layer.
Any ideas? I've included the project as an attachement
Hi Sean,
The 'Number 1' is set to visited on start. If you do not want that check your project variables, the default value should be false, it was true in the file I downloaded.
Not sure if you want the greenBG/icon to change to silver, if yes, you need to add a trigger for that too - it is a separate item from the 'Number 1' circle.
Re: slide properties, 'resume saved state' will show the layer you were on. Instead, change slide properties to 'reset to initial state', then add some additional triggers so that on 'revisit' the applicable states stay visited.
Note: I edited the 'grouped' items for GreenBG state on number 1.

Hi SeanNaylor,
I see that you've opened a support case and that you are working with my colleague Robert. You're in excellent hands!
We'll continue the conversation over in your case.
Have a wonderful weekend!

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. I found the two articles you linked very helpful. Sean
