Button Disappears When Revisiting Slide
Hello,
Hopefully someone has thoughts on how to fix this issue. I have a homescreen where there are multiple buttons for navigation with 3 states; Normal, Visited1 and Hover1. I want the user to click a button, work through the material and then return to the home screen, with button showing visited and not going to a hover state anymore. I do not want to use a disabled state because I would like the user to be able to revisit the information. For some reason my triggers are making the object/button disappear when revisiting the slide. I've attached a simple example of what I am seeing. I am getting this result whether in a new project with new items, like my example, or in my current project. Any thoughts? I am using Storyline2.

Glad to hear this older thread is still proving quite useful, Anika! Thanks for sharing what worked for you, as it may benefit others, as well. :)
I'm having the same issue. I had to remove any state changes altogether. It's a shame because those state changes added a nice touch to the course.
Hi, Jon -- If you are experiencing difficulties and wanted to share your file so others can take a look and offer potential suggestions aside from the workaround you discovered, please feel free to use the ADD ATTACHMENT button on the bottom left.
Thanks for posting this solution, deleting the custom states from a custom button does prevent it from disappearing. Would have expected this bug to be solved by now, this post is 2 years old.
Hi there Sam,
I'm sorry that this is causing you headaches. As Ashley mentioned, states will behave as detailed here, and adding triggers to default states can cause issues. Can you explain a bit more about what you'd like the custom button to do vs. what it's actually doing? Also, if you could share a sample file, that would be really helpful. Thanks!
Glad you found what you needed, Carl!
