I have created an interaction in which there is 6 tabs and one button named information. Clicking on each tab and then on information button it will jump to specific slide. So, i created six variable with value 0 for each tab(i.e v_tab1, v_tab2 so on...).  On tab1 will assign variable v_tab1=1 same standard action for all six tabs. Now on information button i created a condition action with 6 decision each decision have action ie. if variable v_tab1=1 then jump to slide(its specific slide)

The issue is : for the first time when i click 1 to 6 tab and then information button it jumps to specific slides but when i click second time on any tab it jumps to slide which is for tab 6 

Can anyone resolve this issue.. i want learner i click infinity times on tabs and then information button  it will jump to specific slides

    In each of your Standard Actions, in addition to Assigning one of the variable to 1 (so that the Information button Conditional Action will correctly jump to a given slide) you also need to be assigning all the other similar variables to 0 so that only ONE of the Conditional Action decision blocks will work.

    I think you are going about this the wrong way.  Why not just use the click on the tab to jump the user immediately to the slide that has the information about that tab item?  Then you can use the same click on the tab to execute a Standard Action that assigns the tracking variable as well as performs the Jump to Slide.

    When the learner has finished with the information slide, there should be an option there to jump back to the slide with all the tabs.

    If you want to make the interaction even better, use the ON Slide Enter event of the tab slide to execute a Conditional Advanced Action that SHOWs a hidden button to jump to another point further on in the course module once they have viewed all tabs and relevant information.

    Can you post a screenshot of the conditional action? Use the Preview button in the dialog box, first button in the top right control bar (looks like a play button). With that preview you are able to see all decisions at once, because I suspect a logical bug in that conditional action. Since on second attempt the jump is always to the same slide, it looks like the variables are not populated in a correct way. You'll have to toggle the not used vars for a tab back to 0. In a conditional action all decisions are always evaluated, and that means that later decisions can override previous decisions.
