Using an expression to go to a page

You can also go to a specific page based on the result of an expression. For more information, see Setting up a navigation link or Navigating with hot text.

To use an expression to go to a page:

1. Drag a navigate icon to the flowline or to the right of a decision or interaction icon and select it.
2. Select Modify > Icon > Properties to open the Property Inspector.
3. Select Calculate as the Destination setting.
4. In the Icon Expression field, type the variable or expression you want to use.

   Remember that the variable or expression must provide Authorware with the icon ID of the destination page. If you know the title of the destination page, you can use the expression IconID@"page title" (replace "page title" with the title of the destination page enclosed in quotes).

5. Select either Jump to Page or Call and Return and then click OK.

   For more information, see One-way trips and round trips.

6. If you've selected Call and Return, set up the return control.
