GTD triggers

Triggers are actions that you take to move the tour to the next step. Each callout in a guided tour step has a specific trigger that activates the subsequent step. You define the trigger for each callout, and only relevant triggers appear based on the UI element referenced by the callout.

ActionDescription
Next Button

The callout includes a Next button that the user can select to move on to the next step. This feature is useful in the following situations:

  • When the callout describes the element it’s pointing to, enabling the user to progress without needing to select any UI elements.
  • When entering information into a reference or date picker field. Users can use the lookup function, manually enter data, or select it from a list. They can proceed once they’ve completed the necessary entry for the step.
Click the ElementThe tour advances to the next step when the targeted element is selected.For more information on how to display a step on a different page after users click a link, see How to show a step on a different page after the user clicked on a link (KB0725875).
Mouse over the ElementThe tour advances to the next step when the user hovers the mouse device over the element.
Right-click the ElementThe tour moves to the next step when the element indicated by the callout is right-clicked.
