Hover and click on the same hotspot
Jul 15, 2015
I have setup a hotspot (actually multiple on the same slide).
When I rollover hotspot#1 a textbox is displayed.
When I click on hotspot #1 I jump to another slide. Then, return to the original slide. -- That is what I want to see.
When I come back to the original slide, the textbox is still displayed on the screen. (So when I return to the slide, after clicking on each of 7 hotspots, that each go off to a different slide, all my textboxes are displayed on the original slide.)
I have setup three triggers on each hotspot.
Textboxes are initially set to "hidden".
Trigger #1 - on rollover, change state of textbox from hidden to normal. (restore on mouse leave is checked)
Trigger #2 - on click, jump to slide
(I added a third trigger - trying to make sure my textbox is hidden when I come back to the slide)
Trigger #3 - on click, change state of textbox to hidden. (thinking maybe the clicking on the hotspot re-triggered the textbox to normal)
So the question is: Why do come back to the slide and still see the textbox associated with the hotspot still visible? Once I click on the 2nd 3rd etc. hotspots and return, my slide is littered with textboxes.
How do I make sure when I return to the original slide it is clean (all textboxes hidden)?
Thanks for any suggestions.

I figured this out. I had to change the order of my triggers. Now it work.
The trigger to change textbox to normal after clicking has to be on the top of the list.
Yes, every time I have a similar error, I will go to check the order of the trigger.
Thanks so much for sharing your update, Diane! :)
