Advanced actions not working correctly

Question

HelloI have created conditional actions to show a checkmark when certain chapters of a course are completed.  On the entry of the last slide of each chapter the variable is changed to 1.  This will triggers the correct if statement to show the checkmark image.All works great for the Intro, Chapter 1, Chapter 2 however Chapter 3 checkmark doesn't show up.  Then Chapters 4 through 6 appear.  Once all variables are equal to 1 the box with the start quiz appears - and this works as well!Why is the Chapter 3 checkmark not working?  The action is executed when you enter the menu slide.

There should be a bug in that action, but that is not to be detected from just a screenshot at all. Probably in that rather complicated conditional action that you trigger On Enter for the menu slide. Consistent labeling of the objects like the checkmarks is very important. Personally I would also use shared actions instead of advanced actions.

If this is a recent version of CP, you make it more complicated than necessary. In older versions you couldn't make something visible on another slide, this is possible since a couple of versions. You could have made the checkmarks visible from the end button of each section. You need the variables if chapters can be visited multiple times, or if they can be visited not in sequence. But those variables are only needed to show the end situation.

Have multiple examples of that type of dashboard on my blog.
