Change Question Type
Is there a way to change a question type from Multiple choice to Multiple Response or will I need to rebuild the question slide?
Is there a difference between Multiple choice and Multiple response besides one has radio buttons and the other check boxes?

10 years later... still don't have this feature
It would be great if this was an option!
Agree! Please add my name to this feature request.
Hello TLD,
Thanks for reaching out! We do not have any updates to share at this time. I've shared your insight with our product team. We'll be sure to share any updates in this thread so all are in the loop!
Have a great weekend!
I also request this option. Would be a real timesaver!
It is little annoyances like this that is forcing us to evaluate the new Captivate that is about to be released. We have to produce content quickly and there are so many small issues like this in Storyline that cause delays in development. Not sure if Captivate will be the answer, but now have to evaluate and see if it is time to switch back.
Yes this ability to flip between question types would be a great feature.
Tacking on my support for a feature that supports changing question types from multiple choice and multiple response and vice versa. Copying and pasting content is far too time consuming when you're having to copy both question content and custom feedback content.
I agree, it would certainly be more efficient to be able to change the question type between multiple choice / multiple response and vice versa...
Couldn't it be as as simple as adding an option to the multiple response slides to limit the number or response options to one? It would be a huge time saving when you have 20 plus questions spread through a module.
This is really the answer. Then you could use the one question type for multiple choice, multiple select, and true/false. Really disappointed that Articulate implements these ideas so slowly, or not at all.
Hi Erin,
The best way to go about changing a multiple-response question to a single-response question is to create the newly formatted question and then copy and paste the content of the old question into the new question. The feature request for changing this process has been submitted. This conversation will be updated when new information becomes available.
If there is anything else you need, please reach out!
Is there still no way to switch a multiple response to single response?
