Pick many - how to only enable submit once 3 objects are selected?

Hi Jacqueline

So are you saying they can pick any 3 of the 5 options and be correct or there are a definite 3 correct picks they can make?

There are 3 correct answers out of the 5, so to answer the question correctly, they must submit the 3 CORRECT options.

However, to submit the question at all (whether they've selected the correct or incorrect options) I'd like it to be mandatory that any 3 are selected.

so for example, if my question was

Select the 3 marsupials:

Kangaroo

Koala

Dolphin

Wombat

Tiger

If the learner only selects 2, they can't click submit. They must select 3 options (whether right or wrong) to be able to submit.

Hi Jacqueline

I've done a couple of examples that might help.  In the second one the Submit button is hidden until the count=3

Let me know how you go.

Thanks for helping out Jacqueline here Wendy

Thanks so much for your help Wendy, but I can't open the file. The error message says it may have been created in a more recent version of storyline?

Hi Jacqueline

sorry I created in SL2, I will re-do in SL1 for you now

Here you go...hope this helps

Let me know if you need anything else.

Hi Jacqueline

just check on slide 2 (the pick many) that the trigger on the Submit interaction is showing

Submit interaction - pick many when user clicks the submit button if count is equal to 3.00.

I think the trigger didn't save when I posted the .story file.

Amazing! Thanks Wendy.

I see in the first slide that you make the submit button change from disabled to normal when the count = 3.

Can the built in submit button be only visible when the count is 3?

The first slide is a custom slide made up

The second slide is the quiz slide with the default submit button — in this instance I think you would need to 'turn off' the default submit button using the little cog wheel in the bottom right of the slide layers panel (deselect submit) then create your own submit button that has the same triggers as the custom slide.

So...

1. start the custom 'submit' button state = hidden

2. SLIDE trigger --> Change state of submit button to Normal when variable (count) changes on condition (if count =3)

3. SUBMIT BUTTON trigger --> Submit interaction Pick Many when user clicks (submit button) when variable (count) = 3

Hope this makes sense

I don't know if there is a way to put the default 'submit' button into hidden state - am sure there is a superhero out there that may be able to

Hi all,

I just wanted to chime in regards to Wendy's last statement about disabling the submit button - you can't hide it or place it in an "unclickable" state within SL1, but as Wendy showed you can set it up to only submit the interaction once all those elements or conditions have been met.
