Drag and Drop activity help

Oct 14, 2021

Hello!

I am using a drag and drop activity and thought I programmed the activity to allow the user to drop the answers in random order on the correct row.  When I preview the slide, the activity is not behaving the way I thought it would.  The activity is still requiring that each answer be put in order on each row to be correct.  

I feel like I may be missing a step...

Any advice?  I attached a screen shot of an example of the triggers I selected.

When using the built-in Drag and Drop, you are limited to being able to specify only one target for each item. This is done in the Form View, and overrides any changes to correct or incorrect state you may create with triggers.

One solution is what I did in the sample. I overlaid targets 1, 2, and 3 with a filled shape set to full transparency, and made it the target in Form View. That way, each of the drop items can be dropped anyplace in that target.
