Hover State Not working correctly

Apr 15, 2014

I am working on a project that for some reason is working inconsistently with the hover state. Image below shows one text box hover working correctly and the other image shows it working incorrectly after doing it the same exact way! I've tried to re-do it a few times but it still shows up with smaller font. Please help!!

Hi Jessica

maybe you have somehow changed the Font size or Font type in hover state. you have to Double click the Hover state and by selecting the text change the size of text(or the Font if it is changed) as that of the normal is, then click Done editing

Hope this helps. If don't please share .story file with this one slide only.

I wish that was the answer!! what's weird is that once i create the hover state, the only thing I change is the box Color. I also re-establish font type and size to be sure and it looks perfect when editing the states. I've gone as far as deleting the Hover State and re-creating it. This did work once, but could not be repeated - so strange!

I will try and upload the story file later today. I appreciate your reply!!

Hi Jessica,

Quick question - are any of those text boxes grouped? If so, that may be causing the issue. Try un-grouping the text and see if the states display correctly.

If you're still having trouble, please share your project's .STORY file, as Rehan suggested. It's much easier if we can see how this is set up to provide some suggestions for resolving the issue.

Thanks!

Hi Peggy, 

This thread is a bit older, so I wanted to start fresh! A couple of questions for you about this: 

  • Which version of Storyline are you using? (SL 3, SL 360, etc.)
  • Are the corresponding triggers in place to initiate the hover state for the text?
