Hi, I have created screencasts of system steps. The triggers work for my set text variables. However, my colleagues and I can't work out why we can't get the free form variables slide triggers to work. I have provided both examples and added notes. Thanks so much, Jane
Jane, I am not totally following what you want to do and why you are using a freeform quiz for it, but what you need to do in order to get the incorrect slide layer to show is create a new variable that is a true/false variable with an initial value of False. Then you can have the variable change to true based on either when the variable changes, or if the variable equals the right answer. If you want it after 2 attempts, have another variable that is a number value, add an amount each time submit is hit and when the value equals 2 then show incorrect layer.
I hope that makes sense, or at least points you in the right direction. As I said, I am not totally following what you are trying to accomplish here.
Tried try/false but to no avail. In the end we have removed the number of attempts, which were set to 2, to 1. Deactivated the Incorrect layer. Changed the text on the Try Again layer to be Incorrect. As the cursor is flashing and they are already in the field, this will work.
