Dragover functionality

Feb 06, 2014

Hi,

I was recently going through Tom's post on Have You Seen These Comic Book Style E-Learning Examples?. There is an example there by Nancy Woinoski. This is the link http://pinchedhead.com/examples/ComicBook%20output/story.html. I really loved how she showed the various threats by having the learner drag a target over the numbers. The corresponding threat is displayed on the screen.

I would like to do something similar for my course. Can someone please help me to understand how this feature was done?

I thought that we could have only drag item whereas we can have multiple drop items.

Hi Vineetha! You can easily set that up using object states and a simple trigger that adjusts the state when another object is Dragged over it.

Here is a quick sample file that shows one way to set that up.

Thank you Mike for the sample. It was really helpful and simple.

Love the fact that I can learn new things and there are people more than willing to help me out.

Hi Vineetha,

I'm glad that you found what you needed here and the community is great at helping out, so if you need anything else please let us know!
