Drag and Drop Items - Can we have the state stay normal after it has been dropped?

Hi All I am working on a Drag and Drop activity where all the drag items don't fit on one slide. One idea I had was to make the states of some of the drag items hidden and use a couple of trigger ...

Hi

Update from my end. I tested motion paths and it seems to work. I made another proof of concept experiment. It is Slide 4 on the following link. Slides 1-3 is the same as the initial post.

The activity needs some fine-tuning, but it could work for my exercise. I have three batches of answers that need to be shown at different times. And it looks like the clicking the arrow does move it after it has been dropped, but they can just redo the drop actions then. One issue is that it does sometimes glitch if the arrow is clicked multiple times. Don't know if exporting it will fix it - any idea why this happens?

Mind trying it out and letting me know if there is anything that could affect the drag and drop actions? I know I have to make a redo button and the layout is imperfect. I am wondering if I missed anything else.

    Hello Christine,

    I tested your link on my end but I couldn't get the left and right arrow keys to glitch after clicking on them rapidly and in quick succession. Would you mind making a Peek 360 recording of the behavior as well as a copy of your project file so we can take a closer look at what's happening? We'll delete it when we're done testing!
