Storyline 360 drag-and-drop issue: object moves away from cursor after state change

Hello, 

or this interaction, I’d structure the triggers so the visual change happens only after the drag/drop action, rather than trying to reposition the object while Storyline is still handling the drag.

A clean sequence would be:

When the user drops the object on the correct target

→ Change the object to Drop Correct.

This is the point where the installed membrane should appear.

When the user clicks/starts interacting with the installed object

→ Change its state back to Normal.

Put this trigger before any subsequent action that depends on the state change.

Immediately after that state change

→ Reposition the object so its center is aligned with the pointer (if you're using JavaScript).

Allow the normal drag interaction to continue

→ The learner can now drag the small Normal-state object back to its original location.

when multiple triggers respond to the same event, Storyline executes them sequentially, so the order in the Triggers panel matters.
