I tried searching past discussions for what I feel like is a simple answer, but can’t find what I need.
I have one image that I have several hotspots on. I created one trigger to show a layer when they hover and another trigger to show a completely different layer when they click. They are in this order in my trigger panel. only the hover trigger is working. Nothing happens on the click. What am I doing wrong?
In a demo, I created it works, however, I'm not sure I'd build it that way because the triggers potentially conflict since you have to hover or the object to click it.
Depending on what you have in the hover layer, you could create a hover state and add the content there, which gets rid of the hover trigger.
Hello, I took a look, there are a few things you could do here.
What is happening is when you have your hotspot, the layer with the rollover state is then on top of your hotspot in the menu, thus the hotspot won't fire for your click. You could add the click hotspot and trigger in the rollover layer, that way it is there when you rollover to click on.

Are you hiding the layer after the hover?
Perhaps you can share the slide.

I selected the option to hide after no longer hovering, but did not create a separate trigger for it.
Can you share the slide
I thought about adding a hover state, but because it is one image with multiple hovers...I couldn’t process in my brain if that would work.
I called it a day, but will post my slide to this thread tomorrow.
Here is my slide.
I tried to change the order of the triggers, but that didn't seem to work either.

Brilliant! That worked! I knew it was an easy fix, I am fairly new and starting to try new things. Thank you so much Jeff for your help!
Here's what I'd do:
This saves having to put extra triggers on the layers
