States too sticky?
SamHill, couldn't help chiming in— I face this almost always when working with states, particularly of buttons. The more I'm digging into Storyline, the more I am finding many of these little annoying bugs scattered throughout this software, and the more I get amazed at and appreciative of how polished and rounded PowerPoint is in comparison. Another example of this sort would be: the color I choose from the palette for a shape or font, ended up showing being the color from the same position of the next/previous row in the palette in slide view, which keeps me confused all the time. Pretty annoying!
Hi ShamsShimul!
I'm sorry to hear you've run into this setback, when designing Buttons in Storyline 360!
In your post, you mentioned:

I'm having some trouble replicating the same behavior on my end. Do you mind providing a screenshot, or screen recording of the issue as it occurs in real time? If you'd prefer to share that privately, please do so through a support case.
Thank you. Looking forward to hearing from you!
Hi StevenBenassi,
Thanks for reaching out. First of all, I am sorry that I was not very accurate about that anomaly I was talking about. Let me clarify the problem statement: Colors are not showing accurately when attempting to customize the radio button with a custom theme color palette. I am encountering this only with radio button customization. I am dropping a short screen record here. This is happening with only the first four columns in the palette.
Hi ShamsShimul!
You're welcome, no need to apologize!
Thank you for sharing the screen recording. I see what you mean. In your example, there does appear to be slight latency, when selecting colors from a theme palette. However, I was unable to replicate the same behavior when testing on my end.
- In this screen recording, you'll see the radio button update instantly, across different Theme Color rows and columns.
Issue like this can arise if the author is working directly off of a network, or shared drive. Can you please confirm you're working with locally-stored .story files? If you're already working locally, please try a repair of your Storyline installation to see if that makes an improvement.
Let me know how it goes!
