Drag and Drop immediate feedback with no submit button

Apr 27, 2018

Hello! I have created a drag and drop where the answers will only snap into the correct boxes, meaning it is obvious which answer is correct. I would like to have a pop up saying 'congratulations' once all 4 boxes have been dropped in their correct places. Is there a way of doing this without using a submit button?

I can see something about states but have no idea how to do this!

Thanks! Bex

Create a Drop Correct for each drag object. You can make the Drop Correct state different than normal, or the same, depending on what you want. It doesn't matter, all you have to do is create the state, and the built-in triggers will do the magic for you.

In Drag & Drop Options set it NOT to Delay item drop states until interaction is submitted.

Create a text box (I'll call it "Message") That is where and how you want it. Set its initial state to hidden.

Create a trigger that says "Change state of Message to Normal when DropObject1 is dropped on DropTarget1 on condition state of DropObject2 is DropCorrect AND state of DropObject3 is DropCorrect AND state of DropObject4 is DropCorrect". Create the corresponding trigger for each drag object.

That way, as soon as you drop an item on the correct target, it pops up the message if all the other items are also dropped correctly.
