I want to have an explanation appear once a correct drag and drop is completed. The problem I am having is that the Dropped item remains on top of the explanation. I have made sure the explanation is brought to the front but it does not appear over the dropped item.
It looks like you linked to a copy of the published output here - and I'm unable to open that version. If you're able to share a copy of the .story file, which is the file prior to publishing - we'll be happy to take a look.
Thanks for sharing your file here. I've been taking a look at it today - and find myself getting a bit lost in your different triggers, unused markers and layers, and I'm curious if you could just strip down this file to the triggers and items that are not working as expected for you.
Hey B, try putting the hidden object on a new layer instead of the same layer. Then have it show the layer instead of change the state from hidden to normal.
I have tried this numerous times with no solution. When I was trying to manipulate my current slide the layer would just show up white and cover up the base layer.
Once I recreated the slide it seems to be working with just showing the layer.
Was trying to save the work of recreating the slide.
Sorry I didn't get back to this yesterday - but I'm glad Walter was able to assist and that you've resolved the issue. Thanks for stripping down the file too!

Hi
could you attach a story file?
I have attached the story file, the first slide is blank, the second slide has the example
The correct match is the first block to the left dropped on the lower text box.
As you will see the Correct reasoning text box covers the blocks along top but does not cover the block once it is dropped.

This should be the correct file

Ok... I cleaned it up a bit.
I am trying to have the correct reasoning text fly in once the correct drop is performed.
When black block 1 is dropped on lower block 1, the text flies in but does not cover up the block in it's Dropped state.
It does cover the blocks on top in the Normal state

I realized that the layers had a white fill, after setting to no fill I am able to use my template.
