Text overlay with hotspots
I have multiple text boxes and hotspots over an image.
For each hotspot selected (7 in total), the related text box appears. I have set it up so that the initial state of all text boxes are hidden...
The simplest solution: Use transparent shapes instead of hotspots.
- Create the shapes, and give them a solid fill with transparency set to 100%.
- Give each shape a Selected state.
- Enter the appropriate text in the Selected states.
- Put all of the shapes into a button set (https://community.articulate.com/series/articulate-storyline-360/articles/articulate-storyline-360-user-guide-how-to-work-with-button-sets )
When objects with a Normal state and a Selected state are in a button set, clicking one automatically changes that object to Selected and automatically deselects the other objects in the button set. In other words, it works like the radio buttons in a Multiple Choice question. No triggers needed.
