Captivate 9 Image button flickering large and small

Hi

I have an image button which opens from a text hyperlink

The image button shows successfully and the image button has the action of hiding itself when clicking that thereafter

It successfully hides itself initially but I'm left with a tiny image of the button which flickers to full size rather randomly when the cursor is rolled over it.

Any ideas?

    Did you check the states of the button? To have a 'button' totally disappear and be inactive, you have to disable the button before hiding it. That was not necessary for SWF output some versions ago, but now I recommend to do it all the time, certainly for HTML5 output (which is the case here since you have a responsive project). You need a standard advanced or shared action with this sequence of commands:

       Disable Grammar....

       Hide Grammar...

    Hi, yes, opening the State button, there were two states there that corresponded with the flickering sizes. One was for 'roll over' and the other 'down'. I've deleted them and it's solved that problem.

    Thanks for your help.

    It means that the button could still be 'active', even though you deleted two of the InBuilt states. Believe me, you should disable the button before hiding it to avoid issues.
