Text Boxes in State View

Question

I am using State View to create rollover text boxes for HTML5, so the user rolls over an area and a description is displayed. Works very well.

However, it seems my only option is to use a text caption to display the text (unless I want to create multiple images), and none of the backgrounds seem to work, so all I have is plain white. Regardless of which caption background I use, it is very washed out. This would not be so bad, except I am showing this in a software simulation, and the screen background is predominently white, so the caption sort of blends into the background.

Is there a way to do this differently?

Thanks.

I don't really understand how you did set up the multistate object. Rollover shape is for sure an atlernative as Rod points out. However you'll get a warning that it is not supported for HTML output (Tracker). It will be functional only on laptop/desktop, not on mobile devices but you are probably aware of that.

A Rollover state is an InBuilt state for interactive objects. A text caption is NOT an interactive object, hence my confusion. Maybe have a look at:

In the first tip I explain how you can use that InBuilt Rolloveer state to have audio playing. This can also be done by attaching audio to the rollover
