Animation does not work as intended

Edit: solved it! 

 

Hi all! 

I have an issue with an animation. 

I have an icon and I want it to move along a motion path when I hover. So far it's working. 

However, it is moving as well when I stop hovering. 

Does anyone have any tips? 

In the attacment I added a video of the issue. 

 

Kind regards, 

Mees 

  • Hello Mees!

    I'm happy to jump in! I agree with Phil; when you hover over the icon, the motion path will execute, and even if you hover out, the animation will continue until the end of the defined path. I prepared a quick Peek recording for you to illustrate this in a sample project with a motion path.

    If you see a different behavior and are comfortable sharing your Storyline project file with us, you may share it here or privately in a support case. We'll delete it when we're done testing.

  • Yes, it does, and that is working properly. However, it is doing some sort of bouncing after I hover out. Any suggestions for that? 

     

  • Hi Eric, 

    Thank you for your elaborate explanation. 

    In the screenshot below I added my situation. 

    If I would want to change this, would you have any suggestions?

  • Hi Mees, 

    Would it be possible to take a look at your .story file? It would be helpful so that we can get a closer look at the entire setup. Thanks!

    Looking forward to hearing from you!

  • Hi All, 

    I've got it working! 

    I'ts solved because an extra trigger: ''change state to hover, when user hovers over hotspot1, change state back to normal when mouse hovers out''. 

    Kind regards, 

    Mees
