I've made an interactive pdf with many buttons that has the action to show/hide other buttons. This works fine for the first buttons I created, but the last don't work. It seems that there is a limit of buttons that can be used (since the buttons that don't work are placed after the ones that do), but I cannot find any information fot that.
Does anyone has experience with this problem?
Thanx in advance

Forgot to mention that I made the pdf with Indesign 16.2.1 and exporting it as an interactive pdf. OS is Big Sur 11.2.3

I don't think there's a limit on the number of hyperlinks in a PDF but note, you can have a word or words or an image (such as a button shape) as a document hyperlink to say another page in the document, or to an external website.
Some devices, for example, iPads, don't have rollover capability ā only click ā you should avoid multi-action buttons like On Click, On Roll Over, etc. multi-state object (MSO) donāt work at all in Interactive PDFs.

Thanx for you answer, but i'm afraid that doesn't apply to our document. the only functionality we use is to show or hide of buttons. Every button has only one action 'On click hide/show buttons or forms'

Technically, no limit...in reality, it's wonky at best.

If any ID document with interactive elements stop functioning as expected, try saving IDML, open new file, and test interactivity.
