I got some problems with my buttons. As far as I can see, I just got the right triggers (another look when mouse hovers over and going to another slide by clicking). But still some weird things happen! Some buttons disappear or just move to hover state and stay like this, when the mouse is not there anymore. See the screen recording in the following link: https://360.articulate.com/review/content/86f33315-798a-4153-962c-0de837096b2b/review
Note that I just hover over the different buttons and only click on "verder" (next) and "terug" (back), not on anything else. (all buttons are till the end on the timeline)
did you trigger the states by hand? If you didn´t already you should use a button set for your items which have the states normal, mouse over, selected and maybe visited. Storyline handle the state changes of preset states automatically so you don´t have to trigger them yourself.
If it still doesn´t work, maybe you cuold share these 2 slides with us here via the add attachment button. :)
Thanks for the quick response, but I don't think that's it, as it first works fine and then decides not to.. I don't see anything there.. I attached these slides, maybe you see what I got wrong! :)
I'm heading out of the office but try this. Delete the Text Box 3 trigger and see if that fixes it. I think that is what is causing the problem. If not, I can look closer in about 45 minutes.
as I thought you have triggered yourself and this causes this problem. When i deleted the triggers, it worked. And you should insert the text into the buttons. Triggering groups can be difficult so you should be careful with this.
I attached a file for you where I duplicated your scene and anjust the first slide how I would build this. I added all buttons to a button set so only one button can be in the state selected. You have to adjust the colors tho. :) Hope this helps.
When I preview the slide, it's fine, but previewing the entire project still causes problems. It also differs every time I preview which button disappears. In the first slide some of the bleu and in the second 'Verder' disappears. (I also checked the 'restore when mouse leaves').
Hopefully you see something else that may cause the problem! :)
great to hear that this works for you. :) Once you know how the whole state thing works, it´s pretty easy to build slides very fast. Good luck with your project.

Thank you Richard for thinking with me.

(attached the file with the trigger removed)
Thank you, Susi! It worked!
Now I will have to change a lot in my whole project, hopefully I can solve everything! :)
Marc,
Sorry for being slow in responding. I was out of the office working with a client. Sounds like you have a plan moving forward.
