Problem with Showing Next Button in Advanced Action

May 31, 2012 8:52 AM

I'm having problem using advanced actions (using Captivate 5.5) to show the next button after the user clicks three other buttons on the page.  I followed the directions here: http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/2011/11/enabling-forced-navigation-fo r-your-interactive-screens-in-adobe-captivate-5-5.html and also here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4046433#4046433, although obviously not accurately.  Here are some screen shots to show what I've done. 

From the slide properties panel

The SSB_Completion Action

The Scope Action (the schedule and budget actions follow the same format)

And the slide timeline

Thanks for any help - I'm about ready to pull my hair out with this.

    The check, conditional action is triggered on entering which slide? If it is the same slide as where the buttons with the standard actions sit, this condition will never result in True.


    I just answered a similar question in this thread:

    I think the best way is to have your present SSB.... action integrated in the different actions triggered by the buttons. Or is this not what you want: to have the Next button appear at the moment that the three other buttons have been clicked?

    Thanks.  I was so focused on the variables, I didn't think about the fact that I'm already in the slide when the variables change.  Duh!

    Can you work it out? You'll need a conditional action with two decisions, the first a mimicked standard action (if 1 is equal to 1....) and the second your present conditional action.
