Has Anyone Else Had Trouble with States?

I'm using object with Normal, Hover, and Visited states that are images for a custom "+" icon.

Everything was working fine when I first created it, but now the visual state no longer changes on hover. The strange thing is that Storyline still tracks the state changes correctly because my triggers are working as expected (for example, I can verify that all objects have been visited).

The issue seems to be purely visual: the state changes are registered, but I can't see the Hover or Visited appearance.

What's even stranger is that the issue appears to affect images randomly. On the same slide, other objects that were simply copied and pasted from the same source continue to work perfectly, while some images stop displaying their state changes.

The bug can also occur during production, without closing or reopening Storyline. Everything can be working normally, and then the visual states suddenly stop updating on certain objects.

Has anyone else encountered this issue since the latest update? Or am I the only one experiencing problems with object states?

Thanks!

  • Hi JoDS31! Thanks for sharing these details, and for including the version of Storyline 360 you're using.

    It sounds like Storyline is still registering the Hover and Visited states, but the visual appearance of those states isn’t updating as expected. I’d like to take a closer look at what’s happening here.

    Would you be able to share a copy of your .story file? If you can point us to one object where the states are working and another where they’ve stopped displaying, that would be really helpful for comparing the two.

    You can upload it here, or share it privately with our Support team if you prefer!
