I have a freeform question with 5 text entry boxes. Each question could be any number of answers eg. red, blue, green, purple, or pink. When a user types red for all 5 answers it still appears as Correct, as red is part of the options chosen. How can I create a trigger which states that if textbox1 = 'red', then 'incorrect' layer shows if the users has written 'red' in textbox 2,3,4,5. I have tried writing a trigger: Show Incorrect layer when user clicks on submit if variable textbox2=variable textbox1, but I cant understand why its not working.
None of the built-in quiz options can do what you are asking, so you need to create your own. Check the attached sample for one possibility. The real problem with text entry quizzes is that everything has to be exact. For example, if the learner adds a space to an otherwise correct answer, it is considered wrong.

Hi Walt, thanks for your fast response. Yes, I am trying to use just text boxes as well but it wont work.
I have found a work-around by using the idea from Phil Mayor's text entry game.https://elearninglaboratory.com/portfolio-item/text-entry-game/
this allows someone to write the answer and then it auto slots it into a list.
