Hi,

Ah so it was way easier than I thought and I could just use the normal text object. And it is interesting to see that the variable does work

Thanks again

Hi Marcel,
Good catch! We'll look into updating the RichText object to make it so that this problem doesn't occur. But in the meantime, there are two workarounds. See video and attached source file (THANK YOU for providing your source file, it saves us a lot of time and cuts through any miscommunications).

Hover block function

Hi Smartbuilder Team,

I've come across a problem. I have a text object that I want to change text when it hovers over an object. For example when hovering over elements of a picture, to show what that piece is being called.

The problem is when you move fast with your mouse from one object to another, it doesn't register the rollout or rollover. My guess is that it is a time issue, that it was working on changing the text before it registered a new rollover.
My first try was with a object on the background that resets stuff, but that doesn't work. And also the rollout on all object isn't fixing it. You have to move pretty slow with your mouse to make it work as expected.

My guess is that a 'hover' function (besides the rollover/rollout function) will solve this, as that will keep giving the status when the mouse is on a hotspot/button, instead of the one time when the mouse rollover it. Just like the hover function for the colors of a button works perfect. But then as a programmable block, and preferable for hotspot and buttons
Or is there a better way to do this?

Attached a project file with the two attempts that don't work at this moment.

Thanks in advance
