Selected States Question
There are two thing you should know.
First, the process of submission checks for DropCorrect or DropIncorrect states. Any other state, such as Selected, doesn't register. So you are considered not to have dropped the object.
Second, the built-in states (like Selected) have their own built-in superpowers. So when an object with a Selected state is clicked, the built-in superpower changes the state automatically. Those built-in powers take great personal offense at you messing with them (like you did with your trigger), and frequently fail in spectacular, unpredictable, but never desirable ways. Hover is the same way. So if you must hover over an object and change its state, use a state with a name you make up (like "mySelectedState") rather than a built-in one. The built-in states are the ones that show in the drop down list when you name a state while creating it.

Thank you for the reply and I began thinking about that after posting. So the Object state returns to 'Normal' after the mouse moves away from object. Are you suggesting that because I added a state to it, and even though the state of the object returns to 'Normal' it will not register the object has been moved?
