Object animation problem and layers
Jul 27, 2016
Hello, smart folks. I'm hoping someone can take a look at this slide and figure out what I've done wrong here. I've got a slide with layers. The user should click a button and go to a layer and then click Close to return to the slide. The buttons, though, are one at a time showing through on the layer. It's very strange, and I can't figure out what I've done wrong. I tested one and changed the state to a different state than the others, but that did nothing.
Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you!

Hi Cheryl
see if the attached is how you want it.
I updated your first trigger to be state 'down' instead of 'visited' to match the other buttons and then reversed the order of the triggers under each button.
Wendy, thank you so much for responding! My computer's about shut down for the night, so I'll check it out first thing in the a.m. I created that visited state just to test a new state and see if it would act differently, and it didn't. I think I'm going to have to get a tattoo that says "trigger order is important." Thanks!
Cheryl, when you get that tattoo I hope you share a photo. In the meantime, you could easily bookmark this article. A bit less permanent.
Clever. : ) Thanks for the bookmark. Wendy knew exactly what was wrong. I'll try not to forget this time!
