I am creating a Try me by adding screenshots and then adding hotspots and triggers. I have added a layer called "hint caption" and added the trigger for it to display if the user clicks outside the hotspot area. Its working fine on a few slides but, on a few slides, the highlight in the hint caption layer is visible in the base layer.
Attached is the story file. Please look at slide 1.4.
This issue appears to be related to a bug we have logged, where the trigger to "jump to next slide" attached to a hotspot causes the trigger "when user clicks outside" to fire up automatically on the next slide.
When the user clicks the hotspot on one slide, if the next slide has a trigger to show the hint layer when the user clicks outside the hotspot, the layer will show up when the timeline starts.
I added this discussion to the report so we can share news when we have any updates, but in the meantime, here are the workarounds:
Create a Hint button the user has to click to show the layer:
Add a hotspot covering the entire slide except for the answer, and use "when the user clicks" trigger instead of "when the user clicks outside".
I have some great news to share! We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Build 3.76.30446.0, we've included important fixes and new features.
