% % Values on Results Slide

Jun 19, 2012

I'm working on a drag and drop quiz in Storyline.  On the results slide, I just want to say

You got ___ right out of ___!

I can see that %Results.ScorePoints% gives me the number of points correct, but is there a value for the total possible? 

Is there a quick reference to all of the values that work in this instance?

Hi Dale, there is no built in variable to do this put it is fairly easy to create your own.

Create a numeric variable called TotalPoints  set the initial value to 0.

(You create variables by clicking the X icon that appears just below the Trigger window.)

On each of you quiz pages add a trigger that increases the value of the TotalPoints variable by the number of points awarded for that question.

I set this to happen when the user clicks the Submit button - if you are not using a submit for your drag and drop interaction, you could always set this to happen at the beginning of the timeline.

Once you have set this up on all your quiz slides, go to your Results slide and add a text field with the %TotalPoints% where you want the the total number to appear.
