Button & Mouse over trigger

Jan 04, 2017

Hi all,

So, new to developing in Articulate and have run into my first little snag.

I have a standard Home page with a few buttons on it that takes the learner to a topic/scene when they click them - standard stuff

I have also set up the 'Mouse hover trigger' on each button on the home page that presents the learner with a image/text box as quick introduction to that topic before they click it. This works fine when you first visit the home page.

My problem occurs when I click one of the buttons, proceed through the topic/scene and return to the home page. The mouse hover image/text appears on the home page without the 'mouse hover' trigger being executed.

Is this something to do with my triggers, do I need to add another trigger or is it a timeline thing? Alternatively, have I confused everyone with my above explanation of the issue?  Cheers in advance.

Hi Julia,

Thanks for the offer but I may have worked it out.

I tried the 'reset to initial state' on the home page/slide but that kept replaying the home page launch animations each time a topic/scene was completed, plus it did not showing the completion (tick) graphic I had triggers for when a learner completed a topic.

What I did was, I set an additional trigger to have the introduction image/text set to hidden state each time the home page timeline starts.

So, have the 'Mouse Hover' trigger + the 'Hidden state (when timeline starts)' trigger, set on each object.

Thanks for the help.
