I'm creating an E-pub and on one page I have a multi state object with 7 trigger buttons. 6 of the buttons work perfectly but the second button doesn't work at all. It has exactly the same settings as the other buttons apart from the destination in the multi state. I've tried re creating the button and I've tried setting the button to a different multi state destination but it still doesnt work (it doesnt nothing at all when clicked or rolled over). Any other suggestions?
Nevermind. I just had a flashback. This will sound seriously weird but take the apostrophe out of the state name.

Something is not set properly and unless you show us the file or some screenshots there's no way to help. But you do need to very careful that nothing is overlapping that button.

Get rid of that empty frame. If that doesn't do it, then please post the file.
BTW, if you're doing a lot of work with MSOs, I can't possibly recommend this free script enough: Object States Assistant for Adobe InDesign – Automatication
It removes almost every pain point in managing MSOs.

Then I need to see the file.

I did attach the indd file to the previous comment. Do you need it in another format?

The problem is in the MSO, not the button. I don't have to tear it apart now but that's where you need to look. First thing I'd do is export to IDML to see that fixes it. Otherwise, re-create the state.

You are a genius. Thank you. Much appreciated. Apostrophe was the issue.
