Question

show button if arriving from specific slide

Greetings!

When teaching a new subject, there is one section in which the student may require remediation from some previous slide.

I would like them to be able to go to that slide and then return to the current slide using a return button, but i only want that button to appear if the student arrived from that other slide.

This is much like the captivate remediation except the student is not arriving from a quiz question.

Any suggestions please?

Thanks.

Daniel.

I think you would accomplish it by creating a variable, then using an Advanced Action that sets the variable and visits the slide in question. Then on slide enter, have an Advanced Action that will check the value of the variable and if it's set, reveal a hidden button.

Cheers... Rick

That is one amazing answer.

Thanks so much, I'm off to try it right away!

Can I just create any variable I want? How would I do that? (sorry for the trouble!}

Thanks again again.
