It it possible to edit ALL buttons easily?
Hey there, community! Our company was acquired last year, so we are rebranding our Storyline template. I had originally created a bunch of different buttons with a normal, hover, and disabled state. I also attached a lot of triggers to them, so I don't want to have to copy and paste a new one on to each page and redo triggers, but I also don't want to individually redo all 3 states for every button (there are probably about 100 or so throughout the template).
Please someone tell me there is an easy way to accomplish this!!

Use the Format Painter.
- Select the button that has the desired states. (Be sure to select the entire object, not the editable text. One way to do this is to select it on the Timeline.)
- Double-click the Format Painter. That, in essence, copies the formatting of the states into memory.
- Click on the buttons to "paste" the formatting.
- When you're done, click the Format Painter again to turn it off.
Notes: If a button has an extra state (that is, the button being copied doesn't have that state), that extra state will still be there.
Thank you! I never use Format Painter for some reason, but that is genius.
