Question

Auto animate works when previewing artboards but not whole project

Hi there,

I'm working on a school project which includes three artboards that I'm auto-animating between.

The first board has two images hidden under text, the second board has one of the images moving to the top of the text box it was behind, and the third board has the second image moved to the top of the text box it was behind.

 

The naming of all the items and groups is identical and the hierarchy of naming is also identical.

I've got them wired using time as the trigger with a delay of 1 second.

 

When I start the preview from the first artboard of the 3, everything is working perfectly.

When I preview the whole project (all 18 of the artboards) the animation doesn't work at all and it is only showing the first artboard of these three.

 

Everything else is working fine. I've checked and re-checked everything I can think of and have read through all other suggested fixes I've found online, but nothing seems to be working. I've got the latest version of XD. Any help is appreciated!

    Hi @Mary24827049qusp ,

     

    Thank you for reaching out. Various factors could affect this, so would you mind sharing a few screenshots of how the design looks in Prototype mode? If possible, please share the link so that we can test it on our end. You can also share these details through DM by clicking on my name.

     

    Thanks

    Hi Rishabh,

    Thanks for checking in. I've just sent you a DM with the link for the prototype.

    Here's a shot of the three artboards that I'm having the issue with - they are the "penalty" boards:

     

    Basically, the image on the left is supposed to rise up, then the one on the right.

     

    I was attempting to do a similar thing with another page, but if I can't get this working, then I'll have to change the design. I originally set the whole thing up using component states, but then when I went to wire it I could only choose tap or hover as triggers, and I want this to trigger when the page launches.

     

    Thanks very much for your help.
