How to Use the Conditional Action Tool to Trigger Actions Based on User Interactions

With the Conditional Action tool, you can store a mouse click or the answer to a question within the video. Later, you can trigger actions based on the data you have stored in memory.

Conditional Action Start

Step 1: Add a Question

Add a question to your video.

Add Question

Step 2: Set Variables for Answers

Click the “New York” button and add a new “On Click” action from the Properties panel.
Choose “Set Variable”, then:

Key: choice
Value: false

Set Variable Wrong Answer

💡 Note: When “Allow Multiple Execution” is checked, the variable can be changed multiple times. If unchecked, it only sets once.

Repeat this for the “Washington” option with:

Key: choice
Value: true

Set Variable Correct Answer

Now:

Selecting New York sets choice = false
Selecting Washington sets choice = true

Step 3: Add the Conditional Action Element

Drag the Conditional Action tool from the element list and drop it onto the layer.

Select variable: choice
Operator: equals

Step 5: Add the Response Action

Add a feedback element like an Image or Text block that shows when the answer is correct.

The viewer will see the feedback only if choice = true.

Step 6: Final Configuration

Click the Conditional Action element again to configure the behavior.

Re-select Conditional Element

Choose the action (e.g., Set Visible) and link it to the feedback element.

Select Target Element and Action

💡 Note: The Conditional Action tool checks its condition throughout its start–end time range. It doesn’t just trigger once.

You can also add another Conditional Action for when choice = false to display a different message or take another action.
