Is there any way to have a "next button" appear after a drag and drop activity is complete? The activity does not need to be scored, I dont want the user clicking ahead until they have completed it. The other option is to have the screen automatically progress when they are done.
My first thought was to have a button set to "hidden" and use a trigger to make it "normal" when the . But what event can trigger this?
I have 8 objects that are dragged into 4 different containers.
Yes basically it is an activity to match a "term" with a "category". Regardless, I'm looking to advance the slide automatically after the last item is correctly placed. I am trying to avoid using a submit button if possible.
I would also like all the "terms" avaialable for the leanrer to drag from, so they can interact with the activity in any order they choose.
OK I figured it out. I have my activity set that after correctly dragging the terms to the correct category, the term dissapears (hidden state). So what I did was set the initial state of my "next" button to hidden, then use a trigger to change the state to normal; when term1 and term2 and term3... are equal to hidden.
Sometimes just posting the question gets the juices going.
Joe, there is also a drag correct and drag incorrect state which you could have used here, it is probably best practice to use this because you could easily reconfigure the slide

Hi Joe,
What are you expecting from the learner? That they put the right stuff at the right place?
Could it be a "submit interaction" button with illimited attempts?
Not sure I understand what is expected from that drag and drop activity...
Can you give more details?
Thanks and have a nice day!

You can add the trigger "submit interaction" to about anything.
You could then make the drag and drop and they could not go forward as long as all the items are not at the right place.
Does it makes sense to you? (sometimes I feel like I make nonsense to myself... just checking)
Nice...!
I am happy that you found a solution that works for you.
Have a nice day!
Thanks for your help Annie.
I am finding that there are multiple soultions to problems in Storyline. This is nice to see.
