Adjusting Quiz Scores (Rounding)
Is it possible to adjust a quiz score by rounding it? I'm getting values like "42.55" and I'd like to round it up or down.
Hello everyone,
I have some great news to share! We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 112, we’ve included essential fixes and new features. One of the new features we’ve included is:
- Simplify reporting with a built-in option that rounds quiz scores to whole numbers.
Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer to take advantage of this update, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You’ll find our step-by-step instructions here.
Please let me know if you need additional help.

Have there been any updates on this feature request? Seems like it's been requested many times for quite a while now.
The 12 year anniversary of this rounding request has arrived AlisonDodge-0c4! A long time for JasonJohnson2 and all fellow Storyline customers to see the default score show up with decimals included such as "Your pass rate was 42.55%".
Has this one been resolved yet?
Surely 9 years is a good amount of time to come up with a fix?Do you mean 8.5 years or 9.4999999?
Hi Joseph,
We appreciate your feedback and understand how this can be frustrating. I wanted to share some information about how we manage these feature requests, as that may be helpful.
We are tracking this feature request and I've adjusted the user impact today as well to reflect another +1 on this.
Much appreciated Kelly. Since there's already a Results.ScorePercent variable stored in the course by default with results slide creation, and that would require a hard-coded math function to happen somewhere in the program to calculate that, I'd expect something like Results.RoundedScorePercent being relatively easy to implement. Here's hoping we beat this one to the 10 year anniversary... :)
Crazy that this request is old enough that the non-JS workarounds don't even work anymore because those were leveraging a programming defect in Flash. Why hasn't this been implemented yet?
Yes, I noted that a popular multiple-trigger workaround to show rounded score % doesn't work any more also. Javascript doesn't preview within Storyline, which makes that workaround slower to test. The 10 year anniversary of this thread for a common feature request is nearing; a 'multiple decimal point' 10 year countdown timer for the fix could be getting closer to around 9.76% by now...
I agree. Requested for over 7 years now and acknowledged in the second response that it's "it's a common feature request".
Hi Maddie!
Great question. Rounding quiz scores isn't a feature in Storyline 360, but you can use triggers to adjust the Results slide variable to round the score. Here's a community post with an option that doesn't include Javascript.
Is this option available now? It would be nice to have this feature as many of us do not know Javascript.
Hi Heather,
We haven't changed how this is handled in Storyline 360 yet, so I don't have any updates to share. I know some folks in the E-Learning Heroes community looked at rounding the variables using Javascript. If that's something you're interested in, let us know and then folks in the community can share their tips and expertise.
Hello,
I am actually running into this issue now. Most of the forum posts and solutions seem to be 3+ years old. Is there an update on this feature request? Am I missing something in Storyline 360?
