Counting clicks from another slide

I had recently asked about how to use variables to count the number of clicks made on a slide. I was wondering, is it possible to count a click from another slide?

Say for example, I jump from slide 1 to slide 4. Can the click from slide 1 be assigned a value to show an image on slide 4? This way, if I just move through the slides by clicking the next button [playbar], that image will not appear at all.

    So on your click box, set an advanced action that:

    Show: Image (whatever your image is called on slide 4)

    Jump to slide: Slide 4

    Just make sure your image is set to "not visible" by default, so it only

    appears on click of the button.

    So are you saying you want to click something (button, clickbox, hyperlink) on slide 1 and have it appear on slide 4?

    If that is the case, you don't need variables, just create an advanced action, and show the object you want to appear on slide 4.

    Thanks for replying xr42nv.

    I want to add a click box that allows the user to jump to slide 4, and an image will be visible.

    If they use the next button, they will not see the image upon reaching slide 4.
