Motion path reverses if another object is dragged over it.

Jan 08, 2021

Help, please!  I have a matching quiz set up using the freeform drag and drop template.  Everything looked great until I discovered that when a choice from column one is dragged over a previously "correct" selection (from column one)  that was dropped then moved on a motion path, that previously correct selection reverses itself on the motion path.  I'm attaching a sample slide.

Hi Karan,

Because you have the Drop Target Options set to Stack Random, the correct answer "restacks" itself on top of the target when you drop the second item onto the same target, thus moving it back from where the motion path had taken it.

If you change this option to Free, your problem should be solved.
