I am trying to figure out the most efficient way to build a series of survey-like statements where the user will choose Accept or Decline. If the user chooses Accept, they are taken to the next statement. If they choose Decline, I need a way for a text box to appear so they can enter free form text to explain why they decline.
I have tried triggers, lightboxes, additional questions and branching and it's all clunky. Am I missing something simple or is this not really possible without a great deal of workarounds and clunky reporting?
Thanks so much! You took the same direction I did logically. So we are thinking the same way. The navigation doesn't quite work though. In both our examples. I have triggers written so if a user chooses accept, the questions is submitted and then jump to the next question (slide number identified in trigger - not just "next slide"). If the user chooses decline, the trigger jumps them to a new essay quiz question to enter their response. They essay question is submitted and then the user is supposed to be taken to the next statement. I may try to lorem ipsom out the details and publish to Articulate Review so you can see. Is there something in the Submit action that automatically forces navigation to the 'next' slide overwriting anything in a trigger?

Hi Sandra!
I created a quick build for you to work off of. Please let me know if I can answer any questions for you.

Do you think it would help to put all the decline questions into separate scenes?
Here's what I finally came up with. Thanks for your input Lauren. Let me know if you want to see the SL file.

Hey Sandra,
Thanks for sharing a sample course so that we could take a look. That seems to be doing what you were asking, right?
Let me know if you actually had a question you'd like some assistance with and if so, feel free to share the .story file so that we can take a look.
