Layer still loads even when trigger condition is not met
Hi,
I've been working on a trigger on a slide.
I have set a trigger to occur when timeline reaches 0.25s to load a layer when a variable (x) = true
This layer will then play a narration.
I ...
Thank you so much! That worked!
Just for my understanding, is there a way to make the layer not open when the user returns to the slide?
Your original conditional trigger is not re-opening the layer. A layer doesn't close until there's a "hide layer" trigger (or until another layer opens with properties set to hide other layers). You don't have trigger to close the layer, so it's open when the user leaves the slide and remains open if the user returns to the slide.
Instead of the solution I described in my previous comment, another way to prevent the layer's audio from replaying would be to add a trigger that closes the layer when its audio completes, and use the conditional trigger to prevent it from opening again.
It really doesn't matter which solution you use. The learner's experience will be the same.
