If I have a sync to end action on a hidden frame, the event still syncs.

I don't want the sync action to work unless the frame is visible.

Why does the action still work even though the frame is not seen?

I've worked round it with variables, but I'm puzzled as to why it works that way.

Synch to End of what? Slideshow? Video? Audio? Animation?

You are correct that a "Synch to End" Trigger would normally NOT work IF the Object containing it is Hidden. Give us some details, or send your source code. I don't need any resources.

Just a video.

Sync to end of a video on a hidden frame, the synced action still works.

Yes, I've confirmed your findings. I tried both a Frame and a Text Object with the same results. "Synch to End" works on both regardless of whether the Objects are Initially Hidden or not. I would not have expected them to work like that. I agree with you, they should only work IF the Objects are visible.

You indicated you did a "work around" using variables which is what I was going to suggest... I'm not sure how difficult it would be for DW to make it work like you expected. Maybe they can add it to their LIST.
