Creating a Rollover Button using InDesign

[@christiangeiselmann]

Amongst many explanatory clips for stuff like that, this was so far the best I found: quick, precise, focused, with attention to detail, and with attention to visual and acoustic appearance. Thank you. I subscribed.

Thanks for the quick tip! InDesign has so many things here and there sometimes you can overlook features that can really make your work pop.

Great video! I am trying to use 5 rollover buttons to each show a different image, and it works great in Adobe Acrobat, but if I open it in Preview (generic photo viewer for Mac) I see all the images on top of each other, and in the thumbnail you see them all as well. Any idea of how I can make it look cleaner if my viewer isn't using Adobe? Thanks for the great video :)

[@BobOstrom]

I've run into problems with users who insist on using Preview for viewing PDFs as well. The program has a difficult time with hidden layers. Unfortunately I don't have a solution to this one but if anyone out there reading this does please comment and let us know if you've found a workaround.

[@yomansup]

Does anyone know why the Rollover isn't working for me when I export to PDF? Followed the instructions perfectly but still no rollover :(

[@BobOstrom]

+Tyler Persaud There are two different types of PDF's you can save as. Check to make you've selected Interactive as opposed to Print. Hope that helps.

[@yomansup]

Thanks for the response. It is set to interactive and still no rollover. The button setting are exactly the same in the InDesign file as the video too.

[@BobOstrom]

+Tyler Persaud Sorry your having trouble, hard to say what's wrong without seeing your file. You may also double check to see if the artwork loaded properly for the buttons
