What is the best way to create a bouncing arrow down loop in articulate storyline? So when you have an arrow pointing down and after a while it bounces up and down to attract attention to move on.
Is it working with layers? Or a motion path? With motion path I saw you can do it in 1 direction but not 2.
Hopefully somebody can share the best way :) Thanks
This is indeed a very easy solution. Thanks so much.
I only had issues that i couldn't influence the start position of the animation and for my set up it started too high. So I manage to create it with motion paths in the end. But in the future for sure I can use your solution :)
Here is an option using motion paths. The important thing is that the starting point for Motion Path 2 (the upward motion) is set to Relative in the motion path options, so that it starts from the point where Motion Path 1 completes.

I can, however, help you with your question. It looks like the triggers that change the state of the arrow to Normal and Hidden, combined with the entrance and exit animations, are causing the loop:
Arrow enters when it's normal, then the state changes to hidden.
Arrow exists when it's hidden, then the state changes to normal.

Here's a really simple way to accomplish something similar (attached)

Hi Susan,

Thanks. I understand how the animation works, but where is the loop trigger?
