Following this tutorial, we import hundreds of questions from excel - and its a wonderful addition to storyline 2.
We are presented with this import dialog:
When done, I find myself, changing the same options in the Question Form View over and over again, so I'm wishing for an option to set at least the following options at import time (or in the excel file or in general settings): Feedback (by question/none), Shuffle, Attempts, Correct feedback, Incorrect feedback, Try again feedback - as highlighted below:
I've not used this feature, but what you're saying sounds like a great idea, so I thought I'd send you the feature request link.
Also, wondering if anyone has workaround for this - perhaps via Excel after the import? As I've said, I've not done it so I don't know what the .xls or .xlsx file looks like, but now I'm curious.
Thank's Rebecca.. I've noticed, that Articulate Quizmaker, has an option to set question defaults. A similar approach, with even more options, could make sense in Storyline.
Having just upgraded to SL2, I am planning on updating some of our quizzes. This involves thousands of questions so the import function may save some time.
However, we always do question-level feedback, not response-level feedback. Is there a way to format the questions prior to importing to achieve this?
Do you mean choice level feedback? If so, for choice-level feedback, separate each answer choice and its feedback with a pipe (|) within your import file.
Example: Houston | Sorry, the capital of Texas is Austin.
For more information on the options available as a part of importing in an Excel file please review the tutorial here.
Nope, I did mean question-level feedback, not choice-level feedback. After they click "Submit" I want either "Yes, that is the correct answer." or "Sorry, the correct answer is ... "
I did study the tutorials closely and did not see the option for question-level feedback.
Sorry for my confusion - there isn't an option to include that question specific feedback as a part of the import, but it would be a good addition to send along as a feature request.

Good point Bjarne, and I could see that as an awesome new feature! Hope others will join in for submitting the request.
