Delay the "show layer" trigger when user hovers over.

Hi there Erik! Thanks for sharing your file here. Unfortunately there isn't a way to create a delay like you described. Is there a reason why you're triggering a layer when the user hovers over the buttons instead of when the user clicks on the buttons? Requiring the user to click would prevent accidentally hovering over a different button.

If you would like to keep the hover feature, one idea is to block the user from hovering over the other buttons using a semi-transparent shape. I added that to your file and attached it here, so you can see what I mean.

Thanks so much for the suggestion Alyssa! That's a pretty neat idea.

*sigh* yeah, you're right. It can be avoided to just make the user click. But last year the students complained about having to click a lot in an older version of this module. To make the students happy I figured a hovering option would be nice for them and would reduce the amount of clicks they have to do to explore their options.

Another idea that just popped into my head is to add more space (vertically) between your buttons, since you have some room below the bottom button. That may help prevent accidental hovering. 

Good luck on the rest of your project! 

Completely agree! Thanks Alyssa.

I'm going to run this by my coworker who is a bit more talented with visuals to see if she would be okay with adding space or changing the size of the buttons to create more space.

I'm sure it is late for this option, that said, for future reference here is what I do when in need of a delay. I create an invisible box with a set Entrance animation for the amount of time/delay I require and then trigger the box being hovered over from there (ie: when animation for rectangle(?) completes - Entrance).

I hope that helps someone at some point.

Be well.

Never too late to help out, right?
