conditional actions in Captivate 6

Jul 17, 2012 7:22 AM

I'm using the trial version of Captivate 6.  I just got started using more complex advanced actions, so I'm not sure if its me or the software that's not working

 

I have a course that branches.  The user chooses a path of action on Slide 2 and they move through the course.  However, I need them to see all the path options before the course is completed, so on the last slide it takes them back to Slide 2.  I want the option that the user initial chose to gray out so they will click on a new option.

 

Here is Slide 2.  The transparent blue circle should only when returning to the slide for the second time only if the user previously clicked on that option.  I even added the variable to the slide (just for myself) to make sure the variable was changing from 0 to 1 when clicked.  That part is working.

Here is the action part. If the variable (Realtor) = 1 show the smartshape (the transparency on top) ELSE hide the transparency.

What am I doing wrong?  Thanks

    You're not expecting this to work for you in Edit mode are you?  You've published this out to test and it wasn't working?

    Is it possible your logic is backwards. If it changes to 1 when clicked and 1 shows the Smart Shape then I would expect it to return to the slide and be visible. Should it be that when it is set to 1, you should hide the Smart Shape?

    OK.  How are you calling this Conditional Action?  Are you using the ON Slide Enter event?
