I am working in Captivate 8 to create a course that has 5 lessons, which can be taken in any order. After completing all 5, I want to create an active assessment button that will take the learner to the assessment portion. I have seen creations where modules are created but I am using pictures that have variables on it and actions that change it from a color pic to a gray and check mark when it is done. My screenshot shows the pics before you complete, after they complete a gray version of it appears with a green check mark. On the bottom is the assessment button that I want to appear after all 5 are finished.
I have been working on the advanced action for sometime and I am lost on how to make this work. can anyone give some advice?

It has been explained multiple times, have some on my blog as well. Will repeat work flow another time, would have been easier if you showed the action you have already at this moment, when clicking each of the images. I suspect it is a standard advanced action, and it will have to be converted to a conditional advanced action with two decisions:
If v_one is equal to 1 AND
v_two is equal to 1 AND
......
Show Btn_Assess
Enable Btn_Assess

Thanks so much for replying to my post! I will take a look at your blog also to get more familiar with creating solid actions.
I used the first decision of If...then, I included a screenshot of how I created the actions. Any feedback on it?

I hope that 'Lesson3Impacts' is not a variable, you can use a literal like 1? Can you use the first button in the top control panel (looks like a play button) to view the whole conditional action, including both decisions? At this moment I only see the Then part of the first decision.
Moreover you forgot the tracking variable. You need to create a user variable for each of the parts, with a default value of 0. When a button is clicked it has to be changed into 1 (Boolean var), which I showed in my description 'Assign v_one with 1'.

I tried to use literal but the action didnt work correctly. When i changed it to the variable, it did. I wonder if that is what is preventing me from launching the assessment.

That is only the Always Decision (you can change Untitled to 'Always'), and you forgot the assignment for the user variable!

ok, thank you. assign user variable to 1?

You have to define first those 5 variables: v_one (or v_Pat if you prefer), v_two..... v_five and give them a default value of 0.
I created quickly an action (but for 3 chapters, not for 4). The highlighted items have to be different for each action (you can duplicate an action, and edit the duplicate):
