I am creating a slide for students to check statements that best describe them. I wonder how to create a counter based on the # of check marks a students get. Please see the mock up below. Your advice is appreciated!

This can easily be done with four checkboxes, a custom variable and a few triggers on a submit button. See attached a quick example. Based on the state of the checkboxes, a variable is increased and its value displayed in a text box. Hope that helps.
Michael,
Thank you so much!! The sample really helps!
Have a great day and I hope it's not too cold where you are!

Hello, Michael,
Do you know if it's possible to set multiple counters? I tried to make MyCounter1, 2, 3, ... but the only option for the Operator was =Assignment - I was not able to let +Add to appear.
Your advice is greatly appreciated.

Never mind! I found the place to set the variable to "number". Thanks again for pointing me to the right direction!
