Question

can i get the presentation to pause on a state

When the user click on a particular object, the "state" shows up for about 2 seconds. I would like it to pause on the state until the user clicks NEXT. How do I do that? It just seems easier to use multiple slides than to get the "state" function to work like I want it to.

    Can you give more details? I suspect you are talking about InBuilt states for an interactive object like a button, a shape button? The InBuilt state 'Down' shows indeed only when you press the interactive object. If you want a state to remain, you'll need a custom state. Use the Success event of the interactive object to trigger an action that changes to that custom state. It is certainly easier to use multistate objects than using multiple slides, once you understand how they are functioning. Have a look at this blog post, where I explained the use of custom states for toggle buttons:
