Lightbox Function
We have a course that uses lightboxes. In this specific part, after each of the 7 lightboxes has been visited, they repeat, this time using the Next/Previous buttons instead of the Close button. Once all 7 repeat, the user can go on to the next slide. Why does it do this and how do we make it stop?
You nailed it Judy, they are in between those two slides. I tried the "jump to" trigger. Triggers are set so that each button that corresponds to a lightbox must be visited. The "jump to" trigger skips whatever slide is the last box chosen. I will try the other suggestion. Thanks!
The "jump to next slide" trigger always goes to whatever slide is next in the sequence within a given scene.
Based on your description, it sounds like the 7 lightboxed slides are in sequence between the slide that lightboxes them and the slide you want to be the next slide.
If that's the case, I suggest you create a separate scene, and move the lightbox slides into it. That will remove them from the sequence in the main content scene.

Another option would be to edit the "jump" trigger so it specifies exactly which slide to go to. For example, let's assume the scene starts on slide 1.1, and slides 1.2 to 1.8 are the lightboxed slides. Edit the Next-button trigger on slide 1.1 to jump to slide 1.9.
