Save image status on presentation switch

I am using the presentation switch facilitity to switch between two pages.

On each of these pages I have some zones that are loaded with two basic static images, and two interactive touch events that switch between the two images: i.e press the image and it switches to show a different images - press it again and it switches back.

The issue I have is that when we switch to the secondary presentation, each image on the original presentation is reset to it's 'initial state' image, but the client would like it to remain showing the image visible when the presentation switched.

I therefore need to save the image status of the presentation when it switches, and then reload it again when it starts up again. Is this possible to do?

  That is possible through use of User Variables, and conditional targets.

  Your initial state would then be a third state, used only at startup, and a timer event that conditionally transition, based on the value of your User Variable.

   

  You'd want to define User Variables as shared, and make sure that they don't get reset to default upon presentation startup.

   

  With all that said, could you explain the reason for switching between presentations?

  If all you have in each presentation are two images, to go back and forth between, a single presentation could suffice, and keep things more manageable.
