You're, re-placing 6 or 7 correct answers would be very annoying.

Try this. Give each text box a very short motion path ( 1px wide, and 0.1 sec long). Be sure it doesn't have a relative start. Set the Try Again layer to reset to initial state on revisit. Move the text box on the motion path when the timeline reaches 0.1 on the Try Again layer timeline if it is in drop incorrect state. (You don't even have to create the state; just referencing it will create it.)

I applied it to Structured interviews and Reference checks in the sample.

    Hi Walt

    This is great. I was confused reading it but seeing it mocked up was so helpful.

    What I uploaded was a draft in terms of look and feel so I did try to change the text boxes to groups and the incorrect drop condition didn't work so they need to stay text boxes (in case anyone else in future wants to know).

    Thank you so much!!

    Hi Walt,

    I used your template and it works fine when it is 1 object to 1 drop target.
    Thank you so much for that. However when I tried to do many objects to 1 drop target, the previous objects will snap back to the drop target.
    I think it is easier to look at the video linked below to see what I'm saying.
    Is there a way to solve this problem? Thank you!
