Evaluating a Custom Variable to trigger the Enable Next Player Control

Steps to set a Page to evaluate a Custom Variable and when it equals the required value to trigger an Enable Next Player Control action.

In this use case, we have three buttons on a page and we want to know that all three have been selected before we allow the learner to leave the page. Before this lesson we set up actions so that as the leaner clicks each button a custom variable is increased by 1. Once all three buttons have been clicked the variable's value will be 3.

This lesson outlines how to set up the action to evaluate the variable's value and enable the next button once the value equals 3.

Steps to set an element to increase a Custom Variable by 1 when the learner clicks on the element.

In dominKnow | ONE, you create a Custom Variable as part of setting up the first action that will set its value. (You don't need to create the varibale first then create the action to set its value.)

In this example the action is set to fire only once so if the learner clicks on the element more than once, the variable's value isn't increased after the first time click.

After this first actio...

I have disabled the Next navigation button on a Flow page. There are two clickable elements on the page that the learner must open before proceeding to the next page. How can I keep the Next button disabled until both elements have been clicked? The order in which they are clicked is not important.

I have disabled the "Next" navigation button on a page in Flow. I don't want to enable it until the learner has viewed all content on the page. This includes a popup window that the learner accesses by clicking on an image on the page. I have set the action to "Enable the Next button" when the image has been "Interacted with" and then set the action to "When clicked". But when I get to that page, the Next button is automatically enabled. Is what I am trying to do possible in Flow? If so, what...

After you've set up an Action you can change the Trigger at any time.

In this example we have previously set up an action to show a text element when Button 1 is clicked. We'll change it to be triggered by Button 2 instead.

How can I enable next button only when all elements on screen are clicked and make it branch to another page (not the next page in sequence)?
