Different layers and a limited number of attempts

Aug 24, 2020

Hi !

I need some help, I've been searching for an answer this afternoon but didn't find one that could help me on this...

I did a true and false quiz and added some feedback layers:
-correct
-incorrect
-help
How do I make the help layer appears on the 3rd incorrect attempt?

Thank you for your answer !

Mél.

Hi Mél,

You will need to track how many attempts the user has had at the quiz question and so will need to define a number variable called something like "attempts".

Set the variable "attempts" to 0 (zero) when timeline starts on the quiz question slide.

Each time the "incorrect" layer is shown, on timeline start, +1 to the variable "attempts".

On the "incorrect" layer, on timeline start, directly after you +1 to the variable "attempts", show layer "help" if "attempts" equals 3 (or greater than and equal to 3 if you want "help" to show from this point on).

Ensure that layer "help" hides all other layers so that the "incorrect" layer is hidden.

Thanks,
Sam
