I have a group of shapes/text/items under a hotspot and triggers set up so something happens to all the shapes when a user is hovered over the hotspot. The challenge? The mouse isn't changing to appear the grouping to be clickable when hovered over the hotspot. I double checked and when I right click the option is checked to change mouse pointer on hover, but yet the file isn't behaving this way. (See attached.) What am I missing?
That’s bizarre! I’m happy to learn that new ones would/should work!
I normally agree with you that hover is a built in state, but in this case it makes sense for me to use the hotspot with triggers because I have three different hover items I want the hover state to items each with hover states and I want them to function as if one seamless object vs 3 individual pieces so no matter where the person hovers over any of those 3 items, they all light up together. By doing a hotspot, I only have to set those triggers up one time each versus 3x each 😊

I'm not sure what's happening with those hotspots. To test, I inserted new ones and added the same triggers and they worked.
With that said, you don't need to use the hotspots. Hover is a built-in state that does what you want without requiring hotspots.

maybe...
If all three objects have hover states and you group them, then all of the hovers should be activated at the same time.
