‌How do I track multiple lightboxes and only show the continue button when all lightboxes have been viewed?

Correct answer RodWard

You'd need to create user variables to track each one with a default value such as zero which gets reassigned (by Advanced Actions) to 1 when that Lightbox is viewed (or perhaps opened for view).  Then you need to have a way to triggger a Conditional Action that checks the values of all these tracking variables to determine if the Continue button should show.

Fairly standard stuff for Captivate.  But this is often beyond the abilities of newbie users.

Indeed, this has been explained multiple times on the forums.  Do you want to show the Continue button immediately when the last lightbox has been opened or after the last lightbox has been closed? Can the user open each lightbox multiple times or not?  If you show exactly how you use the lightbox, I could offer you a detailed work flow.

In one of my last posts I showed using lightboxes:
