Working with Markers in Storyline

Jun 29, 2022

Having trouble using markers.

I have two on a slide and the first one shows the title when hovering over it and will show the title and body when clicking on it. This is how I want it to work.

The second marker however I cannot get it to work the same it always shows the title and body no matter what I do. (tried format painter, making first marker default marker, making sure second marker did not have "show all on hover" selected  etc.)

The only workaround I could find was to do a copy and paste of the first marker and then edit the title and body.

I am thinking that somehow it has to do with heading and body i.e. the font style for the marker but tried playing with those as well to no avail.

I have perused the forum topics on markers but not seeing anything regarding this issue

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer

Thanks Walt for the quick reply, not 100% certain on that though as I did just try to recreate a new marker manually and could not get it to behave like the first one at all, in fact I tried multiple times, the only way I could get successive markers to work was to  copy and paste and then edit.
