I built an image based hover state that uses a wipe right animation on hover. The problem I'm running into is flickering on hover. Here's a preview. I built this using Storyline360 (latest update).
Thank you Tom. I understand why the flickering is happening.
In an effort to fix the flicker, I am running into a different issue.
Top button: has an added hover state of a triangle (image). The problem here is a hairline split between the original and the hover. I don't see this split when working in the .story file.
Middle button: has the original image superimposed over the hover (to prevent flickering), but once again, the hairline border appears.
Thanks, Agnieszka! I see your case (it came in while our team was off for the July 4th Holiday) but it looks like it's been assigned to Michael who will be in touch as soon as possible!
I heard from Michael this AM that he also filed this as a bug, so our team will take a look. Since it's an issue with duplicating an image and cropping it, it appears that one of the workarounds recommended is to resize it outside of Storyline first.
Let us know if you need anything else, and we'll keep you posted here and as a part of your case if we have any other info!

This is a potential issue when you have transparent areas and /or disappearing shapes.
This losing and regain focus is what causes the flicker.
You can add a solid shape to cover any transparent areas. That usually gets rid of the flicker.

You can see this in Articulate Review.
There are no borders on the images, and all of the images were created in PPT (using Intersect) and saved as .png files.
I'm attaching the .story file, and the original images, so that you can take a look as to what may be causing the issue.
Thank you,
I am able to replicate the issue. You'll need to contact support so they can take a look at it.
I tested it in the classic player, and it looks like it works.
I'm seeing the same issue. I even took one of your images, "re-cut" the two image slices and added them to a new object with states...same thing
Thank you Tom and Michael,
Looks like it's a modern player glitch then. I'll submit a ticket with the support team.
Thank you both.

Thank you for the follow-up Ashley. Michael has already gotten in touch.
No problem, Agnieszka.
