Customization of the "choose an answer" title.

Jun 14, 2022

I created several "free format questions". I couldn't use "scored questions" because I personalize the suggested answers with pictures etc. The problem is that on the LMS, when I view the question details, it says "choose an answer" for all my questions. So I don't know which question the learner answered correctly or not. So I would like to change and customize the name of "choose an answer". What is the solution ?

Thanks for your help

Is "Choose an answer" in the Title text box? 

For standard graded questions, Storyline uses the Title text box for the question. And that's the text that the program would send to the LMS.

I can't say for sure, but I'd guess that Freeform questions work in a similar fashion. 

  • If the layout for your Freeform questions includes a Title text box, try using that for the question. 
  • If the layout doesn't include a Title text box, experiment with the order of the objects in the Timeline. For example, perhaps Storyline assumes that the text box at the top is the question. 

As I said, I'm not sure about this, because I haven't encountered the issue you describe. But it's worth checking these options.

Hopefully, someone from the Articulate staff will provide a more definitive answer.
