Questions about quizzes

Hello everyone!
I’m still learning and practicing this great Storyline tool and I have some questions about quizzes (hope you can answer them)
- I want my learners to have a second try, so when they click on the “Try again” button all the elements of the quiz are “reset to zero” (their answers erased) so they can answer the question over again. Is it possible? How can I do that?
- Is it possible to make a “fill in the blank” graded question with 4 answer boxes to complete in the same slide (for example: “Name the 4 Beatles”)? I tried to do so and didn’t manage…
- And in the same way, I want to build a “Matching Drop Down” graded quiz wit, as an example, 4 items and only 2 possible answers in the matching drop down (ex : items would be Kiwi, Tomato, Banana, Salad and the possible answers : fruit or vegetable). How can I do that?
- And last but not least: I wanted my feed back texts to be white. I changed their color in the Results Slide Master but it didn’t change my slides. It’s working perfectly with the other colors (red for example). Why ?
Thanks a lot for your answers,
Have a nice day (I hope you have a better weather than us, it’s freezing!)

Not to sound like a broken record.. but it would be much easier if I could see the file you're working on. I'd probably be able to give you some step-by-step advice on how to do what you'd like to accomplish. If you'd like to share the file here, I would only need to see the .STORY file (it will be listed as an Articulate Storyline Story for the file type) and you can attach it here by using the paperclip icon in your response.
What type of Drag and Drop are you using? Are you using the normal Matching Drag and Drop that's built-in to Storyline, or have you created a free form Drag and Drop?
For the Correct feedback prompt you're seeing, how does it look when you preview the course? Do you see the white as it shows in that layer, or does it show the black that you've designed in the Master?

Hello Christine
Sorry forthe delay but I was on a business trip.
Thank youvery much for answering my newbie questions.
I send you my .story. Don’t look at the content and the look and feel, I’m just learning touse storyline and these are only practice exercises.
Questions about feedback Masters,
I tried 3 Feedback Masters (Clean, Storyline –whichis the default one- and Custom Design).Questions about drag and drop (the ones bydefault on Storyline) - slide 1.3
Thank youfor all these questions and thanks for the demo and tutorial that help me a lot
Have a niceday and hope to read you soon!
Welcome back, Stéphanie. I hope the business trip went well
It looks like the background for this question's feedback layers on the Feedback Master have been modified. If the Feedback Master slide contains a solid background, you won't be able to see through it.
When looking at the background options (which can be seen by right-clicking on the slide background and selecting "Format Background"), it looks like the background was set to use "Solid Fill". Though it shows up white in the Feedback Master slide, it's blocking out the background of your question when the layers show.
I've changed this to "No Fill" so you can see the question, now.
For the text, this is showing up as black because the text on your feedback layer (through the slide layers, not the Feedback Master) are black. The white text you have assigned to the Feedback master is actually being covered by the content you have on the slide layer, because there's been an additional shape added to the slide that covers this up. Now, if you want to keep the custom red and green shapes, you'd just need to change the color of the text on the slide layers. If you want the design you set up on the Feedback Master, you'll want to remove the custom shapes/colors you added to the slide layers.
I've changed the black text on the Slide layers to white, for now.
_____________________________________________________________
It looks like the word "Correct" may have been moved at some point in that layer. You should be able to click on it and move it down to the correct location.
I'm not sure what's going on with the Incorrect text. It doesn't seem to be pulling the formatting in. I tested this with another Feedback Master, but didn't see any change. For now, I've changed the color on the slide layer to white and italic.
I'm not sure what you mean in your last question here (3) - the text formatting on the slide layer is black for the description text and title.
All of these seem to be related - it seems like the content on the slide layers got modified, so it's not pulling properly from the Feedback Master.

Questions about drag and drop (the ones by default on Storyline) - slide 1.3
If you'd like to customize the appearance and behavior of Drag and Drop items, it may be best to create a free form Drag and Drop, instead. If you're wanting them to return to their additional positions, you can certainly do this - but it may be a little more complicated. You can do this with states, and/or variables, conditions, etc.
You cannot change the question type once the question has been created, as far as I know.
Here's the modified file, in case you want to see the changes I made.

HelloChristine
Greaaaat !Thank you for your quick and helpful answer!
Background,of course! (I can’t remember when I have it changed!)
I think Ihave a tip to put the all the “matching” boxes at their initial place againwhen the learner clicks on the “try again” button. I create 2 slides (A and B)with the same exercise. Slide A : 2 attempt, slide B : 1 attempt.
If thelearner make some mistake on slide A, I send him to slide B.
This shouldwork. I’ll try
Thank you again and have a nice day !
Hi Stéphanie,
You are very welcome! Thanks for the additional information
Good luck with the project! I hope you have a great day as well.
Christine
