Feedback Triggers on a non-Freeform Slide

Hi Laura,

I think it has to do with the order your calling your triggers in.

As I see it, you're changing the states on the incorrect answers from "selected" to "wrong" before you call the trigger to show the "Feedback 1" text box. 

If you move the "Feedback 1" trigger so that it comes before all the triggers for the incorrect answers it should work as you expect it to. 

Make sense?

Alternatively you could leave the triggers where they are and change the conditions on the triggers attached to "Feedback 1"  from "selected" to "wrong" and that would probably work too.

Thanks Greg - that solves item 4!

I played around with the order, but must not have tried that placement.

In reference to item 5, in the image I selected carbohydrate, Vitamin D, and manganese. In addition to changing Vitamin D button state to Wrong, I want carbohydrate & manganese to change from Selected (black checkmark) to Correct (green checkmark).

Glad I could help with #4.

As far as #5 goes, try changing those three triggers to something like this:

Brilliant thinking! I will give that a try.

Hello Laura and Greg,

On Issue #5, just like what Greg discovered already, the reason why this does not work is because you set them to change to the "correct" state when "feedback" is normal when really.. it stays "hidden" because not all correct answers were selected. What actually switches to the "normal" state is "feedback1".

The problem with Greg's suggestion is when you select them both.. it will automatically be an "AND" condition therefore.. it will not work because it expects both to be in "normal" state when it doesn't ever go to this state really.

So.. what you can do is just duplicate your trigger for "feedback" and also add one for "feedback1".

Here's the revised story file.

Hope this helps,

Donna

Hi Donna - I don't understand how your file is different in the end result. Above, Greg suggested that I change the state of the correct answers when either feedback or feedback1 is displayed. I can see that you did separate triggers, but I'm not understanding how this is different from the 'any of feedback or feedback1' suggestion.

Thanks very much,

Laura

Yes, two ways of doing the same thing I think...

I think the key in my example is to ensure that "any of" the selected objects are "normal" rather than "all of" them. In my way of thinking "any of" is equivalent to an "or" operator and "all of" is the "and" operator.

Actually, when I first tried this out I forgot to change "all of" to "any of" and I got the result Donna was talking about. A simple switch to "any of" seemed to clear up the problem. 

That's the interesting thing about Storyline - so many different approaches you can take depending on your point of view!

Agreed - that is the interesting thing. But, the great thing about SL is this community so that you can get exposed to the different approaches!

Happy Friday to all.

New Learning.. I didn't even realize you can change it to "Any Of"... LOL.. that's why I had to duplicate the trigger!

Well.. NOTED!

Thanks guys!

Happy weekend!
