change or dim the color of a clicked item

Hi Monique:

One word "States" located beside teh Timeline tab. Create a Selected state for each house.

As well, if you want teh other houses to show as normal when one house is selected, create a button set of all teh houses and they will automatically have Selected states created for them and they will automatically change from selected to normal as you click one or the other.

Best Regards,

Dennis Hall

Hi Ryan!

This thread is a bit dated. Was Dennis' solution able to assist you as well?

Hi Leslie, it did not, however, we did figure it out! :) 

Haha! I guess I failed to read sarcasm above? If it's something that would benefit the community or anyone that runs across this thread in the future, I encourage you to share.

can you point me to a walkthrough I can watch on making buttons change states after clicking?

Maybe this tutorial here helps.

Thanks. That helps.

Any chance we can change the color of the "Selected" effect? From blue to maybe orange? 

Absolutely Phuong :)

Click the object you would like to edit the state on, select the States tab > Edit States > Choose Selected State > Format and change the color > then click Done Editing States

Here's an example:

This was super helpful! Thank you Leslie!

What if when you click the shape, it doesn't provide all the options you show. Mine only shows NORMAL as a state. 

Hi Christina,

You can add states if needed.
