I am using WSX5 Pro ver 17.1.2 and have created number of Hover Buttons in my page.
Today I made some changes (not the buttons!) and realized that my Hover Buttons do not work!
The button function fine (meaning linking to proper objects like URL or email) but there are no effects anymore, like fade, sweep, shutter, rotate!
Has anyone expreienced that?

@Claudio,
I translated all entries in you post and looks like it is the same problem!
Thanks!
@Tom ...
I hope the STAFF shows up soon ... to give you a suggestion...
Hi Tom
Did you perhaps attempt to perform the same procedure my colleague suggested?
Translated to English:
"You are currently using a version of the Object which is only compatible with v17 or higher.
We modified the Object to fix this.
Uninstall the Object and install it again. Then, delete and recreate each Hover button in your project."
Was this not successful for you?
Please keep me posted on this
Thank you
Stefano

Can you, please, tell me how to uninstall the "Hover Button" Object?
I am using WSX5 Prof ver. 17.1.2...
Thanks!

I found it.
1. I clicked on "Manage":
2. Then clicked on the "Hover Button" and on "Uninstall":
3. Deleted the button from the page.
4. Clicked on "Install" ("Hover Button" object):
5. Re-created the button (as "Hover Butoon").
6. Not working...

I created test project called "AllHoverButtons.iwzip" with all given options for the button. Only "Fade" option works.

Hi Tom
I've verified the problem and it indeed seems like most if not all effects are not working correctly for the Hover button in v17.
I've forwarded the matter to the developers so that the issue could be checked further and I'll be sure to notify you here as soon as news on the matter becomes available
Thank you for your patience as we look into this

Thank you, Stefano, for your response!
I hope to get it fixed soon.
The Hover Buttons without the effect(s) do not look like buttons anymore. The user sees no effects and doesn't realize that the cursor is positioned on the button (except for different shape of the cursor)...
I also discovered today that the new Hover buttons do not support resizing the text and now there is the most minimal text size
In my case, I figured it out. Copying text to a table with an uninstalled font on the site led to a conflict with the buttons. I changed the copied text to the installed one, but probably there was a space from this text and it caused a conflict.

I re-did the hover buttons on my page, and IT WORKS!
So, I can verify that hover buttons work, at least for WSX5 ver. 17.2.1.
