Another fun feature is pasting objects into states. For example, if you want an arrow to point at something when you hover on it, you can paste an arrow into the State. How that arrow overlaps the other states can be tweaked using Bring forward/send back if the states object remains in the state. If you delete the stated object in that state, you get different behavior.
Good suggestion / insight, Pierre! Yes, I generally try to use separate objects because things can get complicated once you change the size / position of the object in its normal state (it can have unintended consequences on the objects you've pasted within other states)
Very cool. I pulled a few useful tips out. Esp, I had never tried images in states. Working with I-Codes for the trades, it will come in super handy for allowing the user to view editions of code books (e.g. International Plumbing Code, etc...) with a click of a button or a hover, etc. All the best!
Thank you for this incredibly helpful training! I've just started my journey to becoming a successful ID hopefully! Your courses are absolutely awesome! Thank you so much for your amazing work helping people like myself.
Are these videos in a recommended order? I happened upon this one today and it is right where I am so was able to learn a few things. I have done a few storyline videos and am going to continue working through them. SO HELPFUL! Thanks for these beginner videos!!!! APPRECIATE your time and demeanor which makes these videos easier to follow. On to more videos! made my way through the checklist and now trying to learn more tech (my weakest skill)
Hi Cristina! I'm going to be working on them in a recommended order to build out this new playlist: th-cam.com/play/PLDW3IzDXPIgo052GFD_c5yGkZoz0qi2si.html So while the playlist is still a little light right now, it should be much more built out in the coming weeks / months. Looking forward to helping you on the tech front! And it sounds like you may really enjoy the Storyline Project Lab if you have a budget for professional development :D.
I'm not sure if this is a quick fix, but I cannot see the individual states in the editing boxes like on your screen. I'm new to all thing storyline and haven't messed with any setting so I'm not sure how to make the boxes appear so I can see the changes being made. I'm on at 13:28 time mark to be exact and they are not appearing in the normal, text, size, or color state boxes
Hi, Devlin! Thank you for this video!! You mentioned a while back that Storyline's built in hover state is not something you recommend (I think from one of your Pirate workshops [goldbear and blackbeard] -- I remember the joke was to use "HovarR" as the custom name for the custom "hoverState" haha). Do you think the hover state (and all the built-in states) from Storyline are now more reliable? Thank you so much!!!
Hi Shawn! I showed one of the ways how they glitch in this video, so it looks like they still haven't worked out those issues. And that's just one of the glitches that you can repeat reliably. Check out my response to your post in the community, though. I think that may help with what you've been experiencing :D
Speed up your workflow with the free Keyboard Shortcuts PDF: www.devlinpeck.com/forms/storyline-keyboard-shortcuts
just when the my instructional design course started and I needed him most.. out of thedarkness
s. He returned!
Haha, glad to be of service :D

I might actually start grouping objects with states rather than pasting into states. That behavior might serve my purposes.

Thanks Kevin! I appreciate you checking this one out!
Great video. I’m new to Storyline, and trying to learn.
Thanks, happy to help!
Thought this would all be review, but… Already learned something new at 3:50! Hidden states are built in?! 🤯
Thanks for giving it a chance even though you thought it would mostly be review! I appreciate you :D

Thank you for the tutorial, devlin!
My pleasure!
Great tutorial. Question- Is there a way of making a custom Disabled state?

Thanks for this video. Could you show how to make a slider using either states or layers to have an image carousel or something like that?
Thank you for the suggestion!
Great video!
Thanks so much! Glad that you enjoyed it :D
👍 excellent tutorial!
Thanks so much! I appreciate the positive feedback :D

It's functionality is more like visual basic , a frontend software tool 😊
