    Default Pop-Up Layer Settings

    Not sure if it's me or Xara but the pop-up layer settings only seem to partially work.

    Create layer > add shape > make sticky
    mouseoff > create shape > make sticky > link to popup layer > choose animation from settings
    No animation. Remove sticky attributes from the layer and all is good.

    Remove sticky so that animation works as expected, then Repeat On All Pages
    No animation on repeated objects.

    Chris, recreated your design.

    Sticky On/Off keeps my Transition.

    What fails is the Repeat on all pages is not cloning the Transition; it reverts to Instant.

    If I sticky the mouse off object all is good, but if I sticky the layered object then the animation doesn't work.

    I'm making a menu. I want the layer to slide out from the side. Both layer object and mouseoff object need to be sticky to be visible when scrolling down the page.

    I think I just answered my own query. Selecting Sticky just doesn't work, but if I try to select Stick At Top I receive this error, which means I can stop looking for answers and start looking for a different approach.

    Core scenario: Object1 on MouseOff set to open layer containing Object2:

    Object1 popup setting = any effect - works as expected
    Sticky Object1 popup setting = any effect - works as expected
    Sticky Object1 and Sticky Object2 popup setting = any effect - effect is canceled

    Object1 popup setting = any effect > Repeat On All Pages (MouseOff and Layer) - effect is not repeated
    Adding effect manually does not repeat on repeating objects
