Glowing/ Surging state on buttons

Mar 31, 2014

Hello,

I am hoping someone will be able to supply good news for me. My question is if there is a way to add a "glowing", "surging" or almost "shimmering" state to objects that you have as buttons. Our goal with this would be so the user can automatically see the clickable items on the screen. I know you can add a glowing hover state to objects, but is there an almost animated constant surging glow that you can add? Or anything that animates to extra notify the user to click it.

I know that there are the markers that you can add but I want to add it to objects, texts and shapes I already have.

Any insight would be appreciated!

Thanks.

You could add an animated swf of gif into state

Hi Bailey,

There isn't a built in option within the formatting of buttons or states for a animated glow, but as Phil mentioned you could include an animation within a state of an object.

Hi all,

Thank you that's what I ultimately figured but just wanted to triple check. While I have this post going... does anyone know if you can change the size of the built in "markers" or are they pre formatted to only be that size.

Thanks.

Hi Bailey - at the moment, one size only I'm afraid.
