Drag and Drop Master Challenge

I know you didn't ask for this, but if you have a learner that is the least bit challenged in their ability to see colors, or with slightly less than great eyesight, the color changes of the skinny little letters of the yes and no will be invisible to them. May I suggest different shapes to augment the different colors?

Check Slide 1.8 of  the attached sample for an example of unlimited Drag items, with accompanying logic to make them work.

I organized the drop squares #1 - 24 (rows 1 - 3), and I created the states and triggers for drop targets 1 - 8.    Once the drop targets are organized to the right cells on the table, and resized, it is easy to apply their states with the Format Painter.

You will need to expand the triggers that move Yes and No.

You will need to add the triggers to change the states on the other rectangles, but it is easy to copy them and change them.

I put the Triggers to check the answer on a different layer, just to unclutter the base a little bit, and they need to be expanded.

If you want immediate feedback, you can change the individual triggers to change the states to Correct and Incorrect instead of Yes and No.

Any Questions, please ask.

Hi Walt:

Thank you for preparing this mock-up and accompanying explanation; I cannot tell you how many hours I struggled here. The missing ingredient was the motion path. Never considered that an option.

I wasn't thrilled with creating the response words in red and green since those are triggers for color-sighted challenges. The client wants it and you know the old adage...

I will test this out and, if okay, will return with any further questions I may have.

love and light

Walt:

I have followed your triggers, motion paths, et al and have a new issue. Can you help?

When I test the slide for the 'Yes' draggers, some of them have more than one layered on the others. Until they are 'sorted' and dragged off one another, new Yes draggers will not appear. What am I missing here?

This trigger has to include every  Drop target, even the ones that have "no" answers. It is dropping it on the rectangle that fires the motion path to return it.

.

Also, on the Yes, if you set the length of the motion path to 0, it returns to its original spot.

Hi Walt:

Hopefully, this is the last hurdle :)

What creates multiples of the draggers (i.e., Yes and No)?

Your sample only has one of each that drag to multiple cells in the table. I have examined your file seven ways to Sunday with no clue :/

Thanks for your patience!

When a draggable is dropped, the state of the receiving object changes to show the same object. Then the original dragged object is moved on a motion path back to where it started. Path has length of 0, and a non-relative starting point.
