Next Button with Stipulations

I am trying to hide the next button until an activity is completed on the page. I have set the variables to be modified once the activity is completed, but I cannot figure out how to make the Next button appear. Please assist. Thanks!

Discussion (6)

for the document one: after the action that opens the document, add a second action that shows the Next button. that way the document will open, followed by the next button becoming visible.


For the mouseover one: create three variables, one for each transparent button (ex. variable_a, variable_b, and variable_c) with intial values of 0. For each button, create an action that goes:

On: Mouse Over

Modify Variable: variable_a

Set Value: 1


do the above for each button (each sets a different variable to 1).


Then, after each of those actions on each button, create another action that does:

On: Mouse Over

Show: Next Button

Condition: If variable_a, variable_b, and variable_c ALL equal 1.


This will allow each transparent button to check whether or not the user has viewed the rest of the content, and if the user has, it will show the next button.


hope this is what you're looking for. If not let me know!

Altarium,


We are almost there. I think I need a little more assistance though.


I have three pictures. When you click on each picture, text appears. In other words, the images are the stock button (hope that makes sense). When I did what you said, I was able to hide the next button, but when I completed the variables, the button still did not appear. Not sure what I am doing wrong. Any assistance you provide is greatly appreciated.


Thanks!

Just create an action that shows the Next button when the necessary conditions are met.


i.e.

On: Mouse Click

Show: Next Button

Condition: variable(s) = whatever value



If you could describe your scenario a little better (what's happening on the page, what needs to happen for the Next button to appear) then I could give you a better answer. :)

Thanks Altarium. Here is more detail.


There is a document that the learner needs to review before moving to the next page. Therefore, I need to create a variable that will prevent the next page button from appearing until after they have clicked on the image that navigates them to the document.


Another instance is that there are three invisible buttons (over images) that house information. I want the learner to have read the information before the next button will appear.


These, of course, are two different scenarios.

Altarium,


Thank you so much. It worked!

No problem! Were you able to get the part with clicking on pictures to work as well?
