Hi Lisa,
I think your problem stems from Storyline's unreliable ability to tell that a button is in a visited state, or in your case, that a button should switch to a visited state.
I think you will find a solution by performing these steps:
- Delete all your triggers to set the Oval shapes to a state of "Visited" when the user clicks on them. These are redundant. All but one of the buttons are automatically changing to a Visited state without the triggers once a user selects them.
- In order to make all of the Oval shapes switch to your desired state, select an Oval shape and then go to States.
- Select Edit States.
- Duplicate the Visited state and name it something else, such as "Details"
- Select Done.
- Repeat steps 2-5 for the rest of the Ovals.
- Create a trigger to "Set state of Oval 1 to Details When the user clicks Oval 1"
- Duplicate the trigger and change "Oval 1" to "Oval 2"
- Repeat step 8 for Ovals 3-5.
You can see the attached Storyline file to see this as edited and successfully working.
