I have a quiz slide where the slider is under 4 groups. Each group has a picture and with a text box below.
When the user slides the slider I want the text box to change state, and the correct feedback layer to appear. I used the same logic as the SlideSelector.story file I downloaded, but it's not working. Not sure how to fix it.
In the meantime, would you please delete your screen shot from this post? I should have changed the photos and text of those groups before uploading the file.
The text boxes change color now -- thank you Wendy!
One thing left to fix -- when I click submit, a text box appears that says "You must compete the question before submitting". What's causing that and how do I fix it?
Thank you for removing that part of your screen shot.
I'm wanting the user to move the slider to the correct image and click submit. It would be helpful to see how to do it when the user clicks the image and clicks submit.
Why does the submit interaction trigger appear twice?
How to get the Correct layer to appear? We want feedback on all choices.
Is there a way to get a different layer to appear for each choice? This way we can provide customer feedback for each choice.
Why are the ovals needed? On my original slide, I have the textboxes as the objects in form view.
I tried separating the different techniques you combined into this example, but could not get it to work. Evidently, I'm not understanding some of the logic involved. Can you show each technique as a slide?
Why does the submit interaction trigger appear twice? This is a bug in Storyline not sure why and you can't delete the trigger but it is not causing any harm
How to get the Correct layer to appear? We want feedback on all choices. Saw you got this working - I had it working from the start so not sure why it wasn't
Is there a way to get a different layer to appear for each choice? This way we can provide customer feedback for each choice. Yes but you would need to trigger each layer specifically
Why are the ovals needed? On my original slide, I have the textboxes as the objects in form view. Firstly I find SL doesn't play well with groups so I avoid them as much as possible - normally I would group everything then Save as Picture, delete the group and insert the picture (much easier to work with) and since we wanted two ways of submitting the interaction either using the slider or using the 'click the face' it seemed easier to use offstage objects that could be triggered when either condition was present.
I tried separating the different techniques you combined into this example, but could not get it to work. Evidently, I'm not understanding some of the logic involved. Can you show each technique as a slide? If I get a chance later today I'll separate but I thought the point was for users to be able to either slide the slider or click the picture?
In other projects I could get multiple feedback layers to work, but with this freeform quiz, it wasn't working with the slider. And with another slide which is a simple multiple choice quiz, I can easily add triggers to display different feedback layers based upon which radio button was clicked. How do I get those layers to displays when the user clicks submit after clicking a radio button?
I was able to get it to work when clicking the groups. I referenced the groups in form view. Not sure why that didn't work on previous attempts. I'll keep in mind your advice about Storyline not playing well with groups.
For this slide, I only wanted the slider to work, but since you mentioned the other, I wanted to see how you did it.
Regarding: "Is there a way to get a different layer to appear for each choice? This way we can provide customer feedback for each choice. Yes but you would need to trigger each layer specifically." I can easily get custom layers to display when clicking a radio button or other object, but not with when the Submit button is clicked after a radio button was clicked or the slider was moved. Clicking the submit button after making a choice only displays the standard feedback layers -- Try Again, etc.
So, I would appreciate a sample file with a slider that has 3 incorrect choices and 1 correct choice (similar to the example you've already seen), where each choice the slider is moved to, when the Submit button is clicked, displays a feedback layer with info specific to that choice.
And if you have time, a separate slide using radio buttons instead of the slider. Maybe after reviewing your examples, I'll be able to figure why I haven't been able to get it to work. It seems like it should have been very simple.
If you want to use my story file, if I may ask, please replace the text and photos with anything such as "text 1", "text 2", etc., and even a shape in place of the photos before you upload it.
I removed the ovals from the slider slide, which is probably why it didn't work. I take it the ovals are necessary to create player triggers which the Submit button works with. Now I understand!
Glad that will help John...yes the ovals are what drives the correct/incorrect in Form View...just one way of doing it. I'm sure other people would build it differently :-) all the best with the project.

Hi John
the variable being used by the slide is Slider3
and this is what needs to be used in the triggers
I've attached the file so you can see what I've done
Thank you, Wendy, I'll give it a try.
In the meantime, would you please delete your screen shot from this post? I should have changed the photos and text of those groups before uploading the file.
The text boxes change color now -- thank you Wendy!

Hi John
do you want the user to move the slider to the correct image and click submit or click on the image and click submit?
Hi Wendy,
Thank you for removing that part of your screen shot.
I'm wanting the user to move the slider to the correct image and click submit. It would be helpful to see how to do it when the user clicks the image and clicks submit.
So if you could explain both, I'd appreciate it.
Thank you,
John
Hi John
I've incorporated both options into the same slide using offstage shapes as the objects that go into the Form View.
I've also changed the slider triggers to 'when slider moves' so take a look and let me know if that helps you.
The formatting isn't great so you'd need to tweak that - sorry rush job.
Let me know how you go.
Hi Wendy,
Thank you!

Thank you very much,

I just played your example again and the Correct layer appeared this time. Must have been a hiccup in Storyline.
Thank you, Wendy.

Hi John
sorry do you want a sample file with a slider or a MC with different feedback layers?

Hi John
find your edited file attached. Disregard Slide 1 I just left it in from last sample.
Slide 2 has the slider returning custom feedback
Slide 3 has the radio buttons returning custom feedback
Hope that helps
Thank you, Wendy!!!
This is a big help!
I removed the ovals from the slider slide, which is probably why it didn't work. I take it the ovals are necessary to create player triggers which the Submit button works with. Now I understand!
Thank you again!!!
