[Xerte] Controlling Nav buttons

[Dave Burnett]

The script approach was the first I considered, but then I wondered what happened if the user activated that script, then navigated away from that FW.
Would the button be visible on return to the FW (because the interaction would be rebuilt)?

So in your button script do this

//next button

 

If (fw.currentPage < fw.pageCount – 1){

  //navigate

} else {

  btnNext._visible = false;//or whatever

}

Thanks
Paul.  I may need to structure some of the stuff that way.



In this case I have regular pages of content hanging off an FW.

Trying to figure out the analogous way to set up an:

Active If: "PageCount(ID)>CurrentPage"

So if on page 1, the "Previous" button is not available, and same
thing on the last page attached to the FW.



I took a peek at the default interface, but the buttons seem to stay active,
they just don't navigate anywhere at the end of "travel".

I use a Decision icon to hold
content while on a page. I navigate through the Decision icon pages until all
of the content has been displayed, then exit the Decision icon. I have my Next
button interaction following the Decision icon, so it isn’t displayed until you
exit.

Now I have a handle on global navigation, on to local navigation.



I can see a few ways to do this, but is there a best practice for
hiding/showing Next and Previous buttons in a classic page turner setup?



Giving the buttons in question an rs value and using the Visible property looks
like the way to go, but where's the best place for the controlling code?



Cheers,



Dave
