Changing Character Expression for correct/Incorrect quiz questions

Maybe this screenr here helps: https://community.articulate.com/series/5/articles/adding-and-editing-states You just have to apply the concept shown to the correct/incorrect layers of a quiz question. 

Thanks Michael. This will be useful.

I want to create a screencast to try and resolve this.  Here is this link:

Hi Daniela, 

You could use the states as Michael mentioned - but why not just put those character images on the layer themselves? As long as the layers are set to hide other slide layers, it won't overlap - and likely you may be hiding the base layer elements too. That's probably the easiest as it doesn't involve any extra triggers. 

Sorry, but I just don't get it.   Could you replicate my screencast and show me how. 

I tried to use the layers, but I don't know enough to understand what I am expected to do.  I added three layers (neutral, happy, worried).  But then what?  I will watch Michael's screenr again.

Hi Daniela

Attached is a story file that demonstrates what Ashley is suggesting (although I haven't set to hide other layers).  

The images are simply added to the already existing Correct/Incorrect/Try Again layers of the question slide.

Cheers

Lance.

I have been able to make it work for multiple choice but I am trying to do this with fill in the blanks.

Same theory applies

Thanks Lance for getting back in here with samples for Daniela. 

You are all fantastic people.  I was skeptical spending so much money on the software, but the support alone was worth it.

Thanks Lance for the samples.   I see it is all done in the layers.  I just don't know how each layer was created.  I tried to select the buttoned responses and the character for each expression/answer and then create it as a layer but I am not getting them on the layer box like in the sample.

So what I am asking is, how do I create the layer like that.   (Sorry, brain freeze).

Daniela

Lance, how do you add the images to the already existing layers?

I may have figured it out.  Will let you know.

Hi Daniela

Hopefully this is superfluous and you have it figured out, but the layers are created by Storyline with the inclusion of a question slide (either templated or freeform).  If you find you are only getting Correct and Incorrect, go into the question settings (Form View, or the Design Tab when in Slide View) and add multiple attempts in the Scoring section - this will give you the Try Again layer.   

Images were added by copying and pasting from the base layer.  The expression was then edited.  This helps ensure that they go to the same place - no jumping when new layers are viewed.

Cheers

Lance.

Hi Lance,

I did add Try Again for multiple attempts no problem.  I actually inserted a new character expression each time, and then resized it over the base layer, but I will try your suggestion to copy paste, then change to keep in the same location.

Thank you !

Daniela

I copy pasted as you suggested Lance.  SO MUCH EASIER AND BETTER RESULTS!  Love it.  You are a gem !

Daniela

:)  Pleasure

I created a multiple choice question. My base layer has a character. My incorrect layer and my correct layer each have unique character posed. I have NOT selected the Hide objects on the base layer of the Slide Properties options. When I preview, and select an answer and then click Submit, I see the question choices, but I also see the character from the base layer. How can I hide the character from the base layer and only show the characters on the Correct and Incorrect layers?

Hi Rocco,

In the timeline of the incorrect or correct layer, the bottom element should be base layer. If you select the down arrow, you can deselect elements from the base layer so they don't show up.
