I'm having an issue with a course i've started to put together, i'm hoping someone can help me with.
I have a number of buttons (shapes with text) on the slide master, each has a hover state on it which is basically the same item nudged up a few pixels.
In the states the text on each button is the same size however when previewed or published the text changes size on the hover state.
Initially i thought it was me so started again and recreated them but i get exactly the same issue each time.
It took a bit of playing around, but I think I've got this one figured out.
Storyline has a few hard-wired states-- states that automatically do certain things. For example, a state called "Hidden" is *always* invisible. "Hover" is one such state. It seems like, by calling your state "Hover", you got Storyline to shrink the text automatically.
I was able to eliminate the problem by:
Duplicating the "Hover" state (I called the new state "NotCalledHover").
Editing the trigger for that tab to replace the state "Hover" with the state "NotCalledHover".
This is also a known bug that's been around for a while. Here is another thread regarding it. I'll link to this thread on that one in case this workaround helps others with the same issue.

Let me know if that works out for you.
Hi Greg
Thats sorted it and without too much reworking (always a plus).
Thanks for your help with this
I'll keep it in mind and avoid the normal state names going forward.
