Double-click icon driving me nuts!
Jacques,
Wow! What an excellent explanation. That is extremely helpful.
In the past, I've built these simulations in Storyline 1 and didn't have the problem. I wonder if this bug only occurs in SL2. I'll test that. I'll also see what I can do with recoloring the same button so it looks like a hover state. Another possibility is switching between identical screens with different icon states.
Do you know if Articulate has the bug on the their list of needed fixes? The way you describe the problem it sound like it might be inherent in SL architecture.
Gratefully,
John
Hi,
Don't know if this is a reported bug, but it certainly doesn't work as
expected :)
There are lots of little idiosyncrasies like this in Storyline, I guess
one kind of learns how to work around it and so on. :)
Interesting though, if one looks at how double click actions work in for
example Windows, there is not really a down state - normally only a
hover state and a selected state (after one click). Nothing normally
happens on mouse down on an object with a double click action.
I've personally been moving away from using all these states, and just
let the state of the mouse cursor tell the user what's going on!
Anyways, hope you get a workaround for your problem!
