Drag and Drop same object in two HS?

Hi Francisco,

This isn't possible.

How about having multiple instances of the same object all aligned on top of each other?

So it looks like there's only one, it's all in fooling the users mind...

Geert

Thanks for the reply Geert,

It wont work, the user will be presented with a series of object to drag into targets, but these targets can receive only one drop but the options are not limited to only one. It wont work because the user can choose to start with "any" item in any different order. The best is to set variables to allow this to happend but I don't think you can do that particular task in SL. 

Hi Francisco,

Can you put a screen shot in ?

Its much easier, if we see what you want to achieve

Geert

Each of the Math functions ideally can be drop into any of the two possible drop boxes on the right side. you can drag and drop in any order. When you grab any of those functions, the graph at the bottom changes dynamically, you can send them back to the original position if  you like.

Hi Francisco,

I quickly threw something together.

You'll need to add your logic in triggers and conditions

Nevertheless here's the multiply drag drop... (like I said, fool the eyes of the user)

Hi Francisco,

Here's an adapted version.

It is now possible to drop 1 blue function into either green response.

I've used the dropped onto condition to hide the second blue function...

It's an idea, and needs to be worked out a bit more, but I guess you see what I mean

Cheers

Let me see if I understand correctly.

You have 2 (blue) of the same function, one on top of the other.

You have two possible drop containers for object one.

When you drop object 1 into any of the two containers you have a trigger that hides object 2.

Object 2 has to containers that could go, but never does because get hidden.

The trigger is the one that allows you to drop one of the items into any of the two containers. Object two is only allowing to open that possibility when using the trigger. correct?

 How you will get this as a correct answer?

Francisco,

you're correct on your reasoning.

There's no automated way for detecting true/false so you'll have to do this with login on triggers.

Have you thought of changing the type of question, from Drag drop to ???

I must admit it is a visually well designed question...

Geert

Geert,

Can you explain how you will do the log in on triggers? Can this be track to a LMS system as a standard Drag and Drop?

I cannot change the question as it would change the intent of it. I did change the Drap and Drop having a bigger container where you can drop more than one of the functions into it, this works well but visually is not as appealing as the example that I share with you. Storyline does not have many options to line up the functions properlly, I use "free" for the placement, but the user will have to arrange them manually and never looks as good as snapping to a center.

Thank you for your solution, very clever.

What do you do for living?

Francisco,

sorry, that I can not answer.

Others here on the forum may be able to do so.
