Hi, I have added multiple text entry boxes to a singular slide, I want all of the text boxes to be mandatory and users to only be able to submit once they have completed the task. I think I have messed the variables up a bit from trying anything I could think to get this slide to work. They are freeform boxes therefore there is no correct answer.
Here is the slide I am referring to, also is there any way for slides like this to be printed at the end of the package. I have a few questions however I only want them to be able to print selected slides for their own referral.
Great question! I recently figured this one out myself - the multiple text entry part, anyhow. I've attached a version of your slides that is set up to require an entry in each box in order to move on. I did this by adding conditions to the SUBMIT button that ensure that each text entry variable (which I have called Response1, Response2, etc.) is NOT EQUAL to empty. I also added a state to each question so that they turn red if a user clicks the SUBMIT button without replying to those particular ones. If you don't want this feature, you can delete the PleaseRespond state on each text box. Whatever you decide, I think it is helpful for users to have some indication of why the SUBMIT button won't work yet!
Good luck on printing the slide - I'd love to hear what you find out on this.
If you assign each text box its own unique variable, you can enforce having each one filled in before you can advance.
Since there is no correct answer, I'm not sure what the point is to having this be a quiz slide. For one thing, there's no way to get the answer correct.
Still, if you want to have a quiz I made a Pick One slide. The correct answer is that all text boxes have a value. I would delete or change the feedback layers.
I don't know about printing, but there are lots of posts dealing with that here on the forum.

Maybe not, but if you would attach your slide here, I'll bet someone can make it work.

Thanks in advance.

Perfect thank you! I will let you know if I manage to print only selected slides.
The print out is a reference that they can go back to, kind of a personal development log of their views within the subject.
