The “Is Exitable” must also be ticked if you an interactive switch to other layers otherwise untick if you don’t have other layers.

When you preview the interactive with sequence on – only videos in the nodes play.
So only videos in Node 2 and 3 will play on preview.
To see the other content in other nodes you will have to touch and navigate screen manually.
