Storyline Groups

Aug 25, 2021

Hi all,

Maybe someone out there can help me out with this...

I am creating an interactive animation that consists of several bespoke buttons that I created with graphics that make several text boxes and images (previously hidden) appear when you click them.

Now I have selected all these elements on my timeline and GROUPED them and the reason why I am doing this is because I want this group controlled by a slider
so I slide this across and click the buttons and make these graphics appear within this group. It sounds complicated I know but, when I roll my mouse cursor over this group, ALL the buttons change state as if I am rolling over all of these at once (if you see what I mean!)

Is there anyway to avoid this so that I can get these buttons to work normally on there own, in other words if I just roll over one specific button it changes?

Thanks in advance!

Keith

Items with states such as selected and hover when grouped will work as a group and there is no fix.

Hi,

Thanks for getting back to me. I was going to fix the problem by having the graphical buttons as graphics with different states with invisible hotspots over them with triggers that change the states of these graphical "buttons" to make them look like normal rollover buttons etc but I have found that I cannot group these HOTSPOTS and the graphical buttons?!?

Thanks
