One for all you advanced action gurus out there :)

Question

Ok so here is what im wanting to achieve.... on a slide i have various click box's that pop up some more info.
I want a continue button to appear only after all the click box's have been viewed..
In the past i have been able to achieve this when the click box's on the page direct you to another slide for the information, this way i have an advanced action set up on my initial page 'on enter' to see when all have been viewed to then show the continue button.
In this instance its slightly different as i will never be 'entering' the slide again, i want to remain on the slide at all times?
Possible??? let me know your thoughts?
Thanks

This will certainly be an example use case for conditional action with multiple decisions in my 'cookbook' for variables and advanced actions that I'm preparing.
The only events you can use are the Success events for the click boxes (or other interactive objects) which means that for each of them you'll need a conditional action with a mimicked standard action and a real condition to check if every click box has been clicked. Have multiple examples on my blog post, and in threads here everywhere. You have to make one important choice:
Can each click box be clicked multiple times, or is it OK to deactivate it when it has been clicked - that is the easiest way, because you can then use one variable as a counter and check if it reaches the number of click boxes

If each click box should be always available, you need a variable for each click box to toggle and you'll have to check if all variables have been toggled

Have new templates for CP7 and CP6 but stopped offering everything for free. You can still have the 5.5 on request.
