Custom drop down select answers - Invalid answer

Feb 27, 2023

Hi, i have created a custom drop down select answer question using a pick one freeform slide.

When I select the correct answers from the drop down boxes and submit, instead of getting the correct answer layer, i have the message - Invalid answer - you must complete the question before submitting.

Any ideas where I might have gone wrong?

This is the link to the video I copied the question format from, i have completed all steps correctly - Articulate Storyline Intermediate on Vimeo 

I have tired to attach the slide as well for reference. Thanks in advance if you take the time to view this.

We would need the .story file to be able to know anything about what is happening.

However, if you have set up a built-in Pick One slide, and have given it a Correct answer and an Incorrect answer, and are getting that error message, it is because neither of your answers is chosen. When an answer is clicked on the drop down, a trigger needs to change one of them to the Selected state.
