Delaying drag & drop during feedback

Nov 30, 2012

I have a drag and drop activity set up so that there is audio feedback with each item dragged and dropped.  When the leaner drags an item to the correct target they get further background information on that item.  It works fine except that if the learner continues to drag and drop while the previous audio is playing they might end up with two or even three audios running over the top of each other.  How might I prevent users from dragging another item until the previous audio is finished?

Hi Eric,

If I had to do it, I would probably put the audio on a layer and trigger that layer when the object is dropped.

On your layers yo can then set the properties so the user cannot click on the base layer.

Then, you can add a trigger that hide the layer when the timeline of your audio as ended.

Hope it helps and don't hesitate to post back if you need further information.
