Custom State has Lock icon on it – how do I remove the lock.

I want to make a flip interaction using 2 states, normal and clicked. The clicked state is a custom state built on the normal state. It has a lock icon on the lower right corner that prevents it from being displayed with the ‘go to next state’ action. How do I remove the lock?

Or, how do I create the state so that it doesn’t have the lock on it?

As soon as you make your multi-state object a button the additional states become locked to the normal state’s dimensions. One work around is that your can add additional objects to your custom states. Here is an example of how I’ve done this before.

Hmmm… AFAIK only InBuilt states of interactive objects are locked to the Normal state because they need to have the same size and position as that Normal state. A custom state added to an interactive object can replace the Normal state and you can use Go to Next state to toggle between the Normal and the Custom state. You mention the state ‘Visited’ which can be an InBuilt state. But you can use a custom state with a different name to act as the visited state. The InBuilt ‘Visited’ state will be shown when the interactive object has been clicked at least once. If it is a custom state you can toggle as described above.

If you are talking about flip cards have a look at the Quick Start Projects which have a lot of flip card examples. In 2020  I presented about such a flipcard example, to show the difference between an advanced and a shared action.  Too bad, I don’t think you can still have access to the recorded version. Here is a link to a blog post which is related to that presentation:
