Multiple text entries gone wrong
Aug 23, 2016
I am creating a tax table interaction where the user must fill in several blanks in a grid. Answers depend on how the user chooses to file: single, married filing separately, filing jointly, and head of household. The user will fill in the top row left to right then move to the next line. I read that using the text entry feature, you can evaluate only one field at a time. I saw how one e-learning example evaluates one box at a time and gives a check as correct or X if wrong. First, I cannot figure out how to put in a picture as feedback. Secondly, is it possible to have too many text entries on one screen? When I publish and play, nothing comes up, but when I delete all but 2 entry boxes, it's viewable. Thank you for any help. I have attached my project but here is also a screenshot.

Hi Denise!
Hopefully someone in the community will be able to chime in and assist you with your design here.
Where did you get your inspiration with the feedback you mentioned? That may assist.
In addition, many design-related questions and discussions happen in our Building Better Courses forum here.
Thank you for your response. The Interactive Sales Report is where I saw the check and X as feedback. I like how it gives the feedback for each entry but I could also give feedback for each line on the grid. I'm just not sure how to evaluate all the answers on a line that way. I'm starting to wonder if this will even work because I can't seem get the grid to show on the screen when I try playing it with more than two entry boxes. I'm not sure if this is a limitation of the software or if I missed something within the project.
Thanks for sharing the original link. Looks like that was shared by Nancy. You are welcome to reach out to the user directly if needed.
I apologize for overlooking your issue with the display. That is not one that I've seen before. I would suggest you share your file with our support engineers here to take a look.
