Hi, I want to make an animated infographic with buttons that use fade in/fade out to show/hide text boxes directly in front of and behind each other (see attached). I can't figure out how these buttons and animation features work in InDesign. Thanks!

If you're planning a PDF stop right now. You'll never get this to work satisfactorily. If you're going for fixed layout epub or publish online, you'll want to do this with a multi state object instead.

Epub/publish online was the plan. So, how do I accomplish this with multi-state objects?

Do you want to move and fade each button? Here is link to demonstrate in Publish Online 2 buttons that will just fade in and out.
