Grouped shapes with custom next button triggering try again layer

Jan 03, 2013

Hi,

I have 4 groups of shapes with text in them. They are set to hidden when timeline starts. I have a next button that causes that group to change the state to hidden and then change the next group to normal. 

The problem is that when they are grouped, and the slide triggers are set to show the Try again layer when click outside the group I still get the layer popping up.

I've tried checking off each shape in the group and it still sets off the layer.

I've looked for a similar problem in the forums with no luck. Any help would be great.

The only solution I have is ungrouping the next button out of the groups, but the groups are on top of each other and it's a pain in the butt to move them around all the time to add triggers to each button.

Thanks!

Here is an example of what I'm talking about. 

I have two groups, both have a next button with a hot spot and tirggers. 

The blue box outside the slide hides the groups. the blue box at the top-ish of the sets them to normal. The next button in each group hides the other group and vise versa. Clicking on the top-ish blue box brings them back.

Clicking the next buttons cause the try again layer to appear even though the slide triggers to click outside are set to all of the shapes in each group.
