Overlapping States
I've been noticing a randomly occurring, but frequent, issue since the newest update. On some objects, the Normal/Original state will overlap with any other state (Hover, Visited, custom states, etc...

Hello, I'm having the same issue with states overlapping. I have attached an example file. I've included notes on each slide within the Storyfile, but I'll include them here too:
- Slide 1 - My clickable objects are rectangles that have a text box pasted into their states. On the "Disabled" state, the text from the "Normal" state is still visible. I have built interactivity this exact way for years, but have not had an issue with the text from the "Normal" state showing on the "Disabled" state until the most recent update of Storyline 360.
- Slide 2 - I used the "Visited" state on the 4 Rectangles on the base slide to signify the user has completed the requirement of viewing the associated layer but they are still able to view the info again if needed. The text is typed within the shape itself, not an additional text box pasted into the state like I did on Slide 1. The issue occurred on each of my 4 Rectangles: the text/number from the "Normal" state is still visible on the "Visited" state, and the check mark from the "Visited" state is visible when the "Hover" state is reengaged after being changed to Visited.
- Slide 3 - The issue did not occur on this slide. I used stand alone text boxes instead of rectangle shapes. The text from the "Normal" states was not visible on the "Disabled" states of my clickable text boxes.
- Slide 4 - I used text boxes again, but an issue occurred: the blue glow from the custom "active" state is appearing around the letters on the "Disabled" state. The blue glow around the text that is showing when the text boxes are changed to "Disabled" is not formatting on the Disabled state, I'm guessing it is a remnant from the glow applied on the custom "active" state.
I tried to be thorough, but please let me know if I need to provide any additional information! Thank you!
