I have a D&D question that gets 2 attempts. Layers for try again, correct and incorrect (2nd time).
The try again layer hides after trigger, but the question doesn't reset the D&D choices. I can add a trigger to start the main timeline over again, but then it resets the attempts as well. In other words, the user is in a loop until they get it right.
Try initially searching for "Drag & Drop Reset". There are multiple options/solutions listed. Its been a while, but I think the last time we used one I did what you're talking about to reset the objects but we also added our own variable/code to track the users attempts so you're not stuck resetting the slide over again. You could try that option.
unfortunately the default DnD interaction isn't setup to reset. So if you do change the slide properties to 'reset to intial' state you'll have to do as Bob describes add a variable for the attempts.

Hi Brian

Here is a rough sample that may help you
Bob and Wendy,
Thank you so much! Yes setting up a variable and then a counter works very well!!
After trying three other workaround suggestions, your instructions WORKED!!!!! Thank you!
So glad that you were able to find this conversation and it helped you, Rosalyn :)
Thanks for sharing and welcome to E-Learning Heroes!
