Hello everyone! I can’t figure out how to do the following in Storyline:
Using freeform, how can you set a “Pick one” quiz question so that the user gets immediate feedback after selecting the answer- without having to click on the Submit button.
Just tried this quickly using 3 shapes on a slide, and I think it may be what you're looking for. So, my 3 shapes were lightening bolt, smiley face, triangle, and the "correct answer" was lightening.
In the triggers pane on the right,
I double-clicked the "submit interaction" player trigger to edit it
I clicked to drop down the Object list, and selected the Lightening Bolt, and clicked OK.
Clicked to be sure this trigger was active in the pane, selected the copy button.
Clicked the Smiley Face and selected paste.
Clicked the Right Triangle and selected paste.
Went into preview mode, and making a choice displayed the incorrect or correct feedback.
I'm trying to apply the same principle to matching drop down, however it doesn't seem to work. Is this because there are multiple options in the drop down? Would appreciate any workaround you might have.
Thanks for the question. Got me thinking! I DO agree that the multiple options is making it more complex. I've been playing with various ways to create variables, but haven't got it worked out. I'm sure someone will jump in.
FYI (and others) in the process, I took a look at T/F and multiple choice, which allow users only 1 choice, and got those working similarly to the pick one that Annick had asked about.
After creating either the T/F or MC question, here's what I did
Double-Clicked on the Player Trigger in the triggers pane to open up the editing window
Clicked the Object drop-down and for T/F Selected Button 1 True...OK
Made sure this Object Trigger was selected
Clicked copy in the toolbar in the Triggers pane
Clicked paste in the toolbar in the Triggers pane
Double-clicked this new trigger to open the editing window
Clicked the Object drop-down and selected Button 1 F...OK
Same idea for MC
I'd also like to know the resolution for your question, matching drop-down and for multiple response...
There are a few graded question types that don't allow for deeper customization or access to states. The matching drop down is one of those.
Becky: you can add triggers to the multiple response question that show/hide layers for immediate feedback. Just click each choice and add a trigger to show a feedback layer. You'll likely want to add a fade out animation and a slide layer trigger to hide the slide layer when the timeline ends.
Thanks for the example. It's really helpful. I have 2 questions:
1. When I click on the boxes, the feedback messages stay for about 2 seconds. Is there a way for them to stay put?
2. Is there a way to have instant feedback in the form of a green check (correct) or a red cross (incorrect), as in the following example: http://bit.ly/14rBtVV
I know this thread is a little old, but it's the closest I've been able to come. I'm trying to figure out how to provide instant feedback on a matching drag and drop.
Have you looked at using a more customized drag/drop interaction and using dropped correct/incorrect states for you items, and then enabling the interaction to show the feedback when dropped (uncheck the box below):

Thank you so much Rebecca! This is it!!

Hi David,
Tx for the reply. The matching drop-down was really the one I was hoping this could be set up for.
Tx for the sample on the MR. I was able to recreate what you did and found the the tips about fading out instructive.
