Multiple questions on the same quiz slide

Andrea - I am trying to do exactly what you are attempting to do in example Question 6 of 27. (multiple drop down box questions on one slide) I am new to Storyline and maybe i am missing something but i am not understanding how to get this one to work. Did you figure it out? thanks!

Hi Regina,

Welcome to the community.

Mike Enders has a really great tutorial creating mutliple drop-downs here

Rebecca - Wow exactly what i was looking for!

You guys Rock!

Mike Enders - great video! Informative and Entertaining!

Thanks again!

Mike, that is a really nice tutorial. Sometimes just thinking the logic through is the toughest part.

Hi,

Regina, glad that worked for you. Brett, I agree he did a good job explaining the logic. Sometimes we need more than 5-minute Screenrs rof sure!

Watched the video from Mike Enders and it was very useful but for some reason when I submit the correct answer I still get the incorrect answer.  Any thoughts?

Thanks

Tom

Hi Tom! This thread is a bit dated. Do you have a .story file that you would like someone to take a look at? That may be helpful.

Yes that would be awesome. How do I go about submitting it?

Hi - Is there some way to get what Mike shows in his video in Storyline 2? I can't get the final step of changing the 'Yes' state to 'Selected' when clicking submit (everything else works fine).

Hi John

do you want to upload your story file - easier for someone to help if they can see your setup.

The most common cause of this type of interaction not working is:

1. Triggers not in the correct order
2. The Yes (correct) trigger to have the AND condition for all 3 responses
3. The No (incorrect) trigger to have the OR condition

Hi John,

I'd agree with Wendy's thoughts here - and you may want to review the information here in regards to the trigger order. If you're able to upload the file here, we're happy to take a look. :-) 

Thank you both for your replies I managed to solve the problem.

In the video the final trigger created involved changing the state of 'yes' or 'no' to 'selected' when the user clicks submit. This just would not work for me, so what I did to fix it was to first change the default state of 'no' to 'selected' and then set the trigger for 'yes' to be:

Change state of 'yes' to selected when state of 'question 1' is 'the correct answer' ON CONDITION 'question 2' state is 'the correct answer' AND 'question 3' state is 'the correct answer'.

This then worked perfectly.

Great news John glad you got it sorted.

This was a great tutorial and everything worked like a charm for most of my slides.

However, I need to add another element to a few of my slides whereby I have 3 (instead of 2) drop down selections. Drop down 1 & 2 have the same list of options. The learner has to select an option from each but it doesn't matter which one is selected in each drop down.

They have to select "Income Tax Specialist" and "Sales Tax Specialist". But it doesn't matter which drop down they select it from as long as they are both selected. So how do I set up my variables to allow for the 2 options to be selected from either drop down and then have the correct option selected from drop down 3?

I've attached a copy of the slide.

Thanks!

Hi Jan

can you upload the slide - easier for someone to help you if they can see and work with your current setup.

Sure Wendy! Here is it....

In this example the answer is Tax Specialist and Sales Tax Specialist plus "Yes" for "Someone other than the preparer". The learner should be able to select the titles (from either of the reviewer drop downs.

At the moment the triggers are set up for just one reviewer to be selected plus the Yes/No selection.

Thanks for your help!

Hi Jan

on the layer position, there is no reference to the user clicking Sales tax specialist but there are three income specialists? is there a issue there?

Hi Wendy,

Yes, I only have one trigger set up for Income Tax Specialist and not Sales Tax Specialist because I'm not sure how to do it. I'm guessing for the first trigger I can set it up in the variables so that Position = Income Tax Specialist AND Position 2 = Sales Tax Specialist AND Other than preparer = Yes.

That works if they choose Income Tax Specialist for Position 1 and Sales Tax Specialist for Position 2. However, the learner should also be able to select it the other way around - Position 1 = Sales Tax Specialist and Position 2 = Income Tax Specialist. Do I create a second trigger, similar to the first one and what do I have to do so that Storyline will accept either of those as correct?

I hope this makes sense?

Sorry Wendy, I see what you are referring to now. I've added another layer for the second position.

I've attached the updated slide.

Hopefully I've got it right now. Still unsure what to do about the triggers?

Hi Jan

I had a little trouble following your slide so I created one with similar dropdown selectors.

In my example I can:

• select Sales Specialist / Tax Specialist / Yes and correct layer shows
• select Tax Specialist / Sales Specialist / Yes and correct layer shows

I have made the incorrect layer show when the 'correct' offstage button is not selected.

Hope that makes sense.

Thanks Wendy! It was the third trigger I was struggling with. (Sorry my example wasn't complete yet so you're right, the positions weren't appearing properly). It works perfectly now!

Great Jan! So glad you got it sorted out...good luck with your project!

Hi, I know its a bit late. I wanted to know whether in this case, the result can be added to results slide?
