Drag and drop freeform question cannot be answered correctly

Jul 11, 2018

Hi

I'm using storyline 360 and for a quiz question I am asking the learner to drag icons into numbered squares, then click a custom SUBMIT button (that's the essence of it).

Every time, the answer is judged incorrect and the incorrect layer is displayed. I have tried the default submit button on the player - to no avail. I even though it could have been the template I had to use, it did not work when I created a simple drag and drop from scratch.

Any ideas? Anyone? Bueller?

Thanks for having a look Wendy (the file is a single slide)

I am using icons and a text box (label) grouped together into a single object to drag.

I did try a similar question last night, an icon to drag into a shape (no fill, dotted line), using the default submit button - same result.

Regards

Hi Michael

couple of things - 261MB for one slide is huge.  I created a new project file and imported the slide in and it's now only 311KB.

The dotted line around your drop targets is the issue - this has been a bug since SL2.  I made them a solid line and it works as expected. I've attached the file for you.

Hello everyone,

I'm happy to share that we just released another update for Articulate 360, and included a few important fixes that you'll see in the release notes here.  

I'm sure you'll be most interested in:

Fixed: Drag-and-drop questions weren't always evaluated correctly, and drag items weren't precisely centered in drop targets.

Just launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer and click the Update button for Storyline 360. Details here.

Please let us know if you have any questions, either here or by reaching out to our Support Engineers directly.
