Issue with mouse hovered over triggers

Thanks Wendy, yes, they are all the same size. I'm not using hover states at all in this interaction, rather using 'mouse hovered over' triggers to control the state of the other objects.

I built this sample file to rule out any issues with the images that I was using (I suspected the small delay might be due to the images loading), but it hasn't made any difference. 

I couldn't find the .story file in the .zip file. Can you try again?

Sorry Walt, looks like I uploaded the published output accidently... see attached. 

I don't understand it, but somehow the cursor moves off without registering that it has. Hover is a great function, but has limitations. I tried triggering changes from state change, and somehow that doesn't work very well, either.

I'm not sure the attached is what you want, but at least I don't see the black flickering, and I couldn't get it to freeze, at least not in preview.

Thanks Walt, that works a bit better than what I had set up, but unfortunately it's still a bit buggy. I'll do some more playing around. I appreciate your help with this.

I dug into this a bit more and unfortunately this approach won't work due to the requirement for the background rectangle that resets the variable on hover off... 

Any other ideas?

Yes, it would work great if you could depend on "when state changes", but I couldn't get it to work. Beyond that, no idea.

Hi Matthew,

Thanks for sharing your file here- do you only see this upon publish? I tested in preview and publish (also uploaded to Tempshare here) and after hovering over them all for a period of time I didn't get stuck or see an odd flicker. Granted with the number of times I watched them appear/disappear I may have gone a little nutty. ;-)   Here is a video of how I see it in preview as well. 

Hey Ashley,

You're right, it's isn't getting stuck when published, I wonder if that was happening because the mouse went out of the preview area? 

The flicker is still present in the version you published. The attached GIF hopefully demonstrates it clearly, but it seems to only occur when the mouse is moving from left to right.

Any ideas why this happens? Thanks for your assistance.

HI Matthew,

What browser are you viewing it in? I generally test in Chrome so that's where I was viewing this but am curious if you're seeing it only occur in a different browser set up I could test.   I didn't see any flicker in my published or preview output - although I don't think I let my mouse leave the preview window either as you mentioned. 

Hi Ashley,

Originally I had tested in IE11 (Win) and Safari (Mac).

I just tested the published flash output in Chrome (Mac) and noticed that the flicker isn't present, but it did get stuck after moving the mouse around a bit. 

I then tested the HTML5 output in Chrome which had the flicker issue when moving the mouse from left to right. 

Hi Matthew,

Thanks for sharing that - how long were you hovering over it to see it freeze? What Chrome version are you using? Since we're seeing some inconsistent results I'd like to have you continue testing with our Support team and will open up a case on your behalf. 

Thanks for passing that on to support Ashley. Eloisa has confirmed that they are able to reproduce the issue and have submitted the case to QA for review. I'm using Chrome Version 46.0.2490.71 (64-bit) and the freeze is happening rather quickly in the flash output (see attached).  

Thanks Matthew - and glad we could get you into a case to confirm. It's one of those things it's better to have a few eyes look at since we were having inconsistent results. We'll be in touch via your case and here in the forums once there is additional information to share, but as Eloise mentioned we cannot offer a time frame in regards to when we'll hear back from our QA team or have additional information to share - so I appreciate your patience.

If there is anything else we can assist with, please let us know.
