Where is "Text" when setting up hover over text
I am creating a trigger to show layer when user hovers over text in a paragraph. When I try to set it up, it only shows "Object". How do I get "text"?

Hi,
Let me try again. In the Trigger wizard, you see "Object". I have on some courses "Text" in its place but I can't figure out how they did that.

Hi Daniela,
The word object in the trigger wizard will switch to text if you are adding triggers to highlighted text, similar to how you would setup hyperlinks in Storyline 360.
Let me know if this is what you were looking for!
Hi Joe,
I don't understand. I selected a word but the selection was removed when I tried to create a trigger. Also, I want to select a word within a paragraph and then have a popup to define that word when the user hovers over the word.
I need a step by step because I still can't see how the word "Text" shows up in the trigger.

Hi Daniela!
It sounds like you are trying to select one word from a group of text and have it trigger a pop-up text box. I’d be happy to help!
This video I recorded walks you through the steps on how to achieve that.
