is it possible to link to another scene using the multiline function? it always seems that whenever i convert text to graphics, it makes it very difficult to “hover” over the actual link part. any ideas/comments?

Thanks

ok i have a text “pictures”, and i converted it to a button. next, i added keyframes in up, over, and hit so that when you hover over it, its simply supposed to change from white font to blue. however when i publish it, the mouse cursor doesnt change to clickable ontop of the text, only in a tiny margin around it.

try to switch your text from static to dynamic, or vic versa from dynamic to statics and try to draw the rectangle over all that when your on the hit frame…
