Drag items position changes after publish/preview
Aug 18, 2014
Hi,
I have created a quiz question which involves dragging captions on to pictures. The issue I am having is that the drag items are not staying where I place them in Slide View, once they are previewed or published.
1. What the slide looks like in Slide View, with all the captions stacked on top of one another.
2. Preview or Publish the slide, and the Captions move to
random nearby spots, and each time you preview the slide the positions are
slightly different.
Originally this was done using Captions, I tried a couple of tips I read in the forums but nothing helped, they were:
· Converting the captions to Pictures
· Viewing the slides at 100% zoom when setting the position.
The same behaviour occurs whether or not you choose to only show one drag item at a time or all at once.
I hope you may have a suggestion on how to fix this.
Thanks,
Virginia

Hi Virginia and welcome to E-Learning Heroes!
Would you be able to share this .quiz file so that we could have a look?
Hi Leslie,

Hi,
Here is the file, thanks.
Hi Virginia!
This is what I'm seeing, which is not the same image nor issue that you shared above. Can you tell me what is going on now that you need assistance with:
Hi,
I'm sorry I had uploaded the wrong quiz as you pointed out! However, it is good news because since you brought to my attention that this quiz didnt have the same problem I was able to compare my two quiz's and figure out what was causing the issue.
It'd be great if you could pass this on to your developers.
If you take the quiz example I uploaded above where everything appears fine, and then make two changes you can reproduce this issue. First move one of the drag items (speech bubbles) to a different place on the page and notice which item it is that you moved. Then turn on Shuffle Answers. Now preview the quiz, and I think you'll see that the item that pops up in the different position to all the others is NOT the same text as the one you set up in the form view.
What I think is happening is that the position parameter isn't staying with the item when it is shuffled.
Note - if the items are all in the same position you cant tell that this is happening.
thanks,
Virginia
