Thanks Dana and Gemma! (If it were for real, I'd probably have to relax that timer; it's sometimes easy to race it too fast for someone seeing it for the first time, when as the author, you are so familiar with your own content.)
One limitation I had, and maybe someone can advise me on this: I initially wanted to use the native scoring features from the text box interaction (just update the parameter to give 5 points for a correct answer). But when I added the penalty for using clues (timed or chosen), I didn't know how to manipulate the native-Storyline scoring variable to take away a point. So, I had to use my own TotalScore variable to capture both the text box interaction and the penalty clues (made my own submit button and deactivated Storyline's). Is there a list of Storyline variables, so I can subtract the penalties from the native score variable?
Thanks and have a great weekend!
