I set up a series of advanced action which involve:

Clicking on an image, changing the state of the content in the text box, showing a supporting image, and hiding all other images.  I set up s series of these and they were working, then after about 5, they stopped working all together.  I can click, the content in the box updates, but the images that are supposed to show no longer do. I deleted ALL of them, started from scratch and now have only 1 advanced action in my project, setup as we see here, however, the Add Menu Image that is set up to show, does not.  Previously, it would flash for a second and disappear, and it does not do that anymore.  Any idea what i am doing wrong here?  Thank you.

PS – The strangest thing is that the series of about 7 advanced actions did work and adding number 8 seems to have “broken” it.

I upgraded and that seemed to be what was needed.  Thanks!

I am using 11.0.1.266 (Captivate 2019).  I attached the image here, sorry about that.

Not yet upgraded to 11.5?

Cannot see the timeline, is the image on top of the stack? Is this an image timed for the rest of the project? I suspect it is a non-responsive project? Never used groups (to hide 4 objects, you can just hide the group).

I can just see the bottom of one button timeline, you have set the pausing point to the end frame of that timeline. I would never do that, leave at least a small inactive part to avoid that a complicated action has to be done on the last frame.

BTW I see an image as thumbnail but it is not in your question and a thumbnail is much to small to figure out the content. Preview is to be found under the arrow button in the Advanced Actions dialog box, first button in the top right control panel.
