I started with a clean file. I think the problem is in the drag and drop function (freeform with 2 drop targets and 3 or more drag shapes). Can you tell me which triggers i have to build?
the complexity of the quiz is this pathway:
Every question has multiple drag shapes “measure” who Apply or fall off.
the questions and pathways:
question 1:
yes -> question 2 no -> hidden State on all following questions. All of the measures on no -> slide that leads to main menu to go to the next measures.
question 2: yes -> question 3 No ~> hidden State on all following questions. And by all on no, same as question 1.
question 3: one measure on yes -> question 4a, then next 4b (for the measures on “no”). All on no -> question 4b. All on yes -> question 4a and then question 5.
So then you have these paths
3 > 4a > 4b > 5 (spread answers on 3)
3 > 4a > 5 (all yes on 3)
3 > 4b > 5 (all no on 3)
Question 5: yes and no lead to the resultslide where the measures fall into 1 Category (3 categories)
Hopefully this explains things.
Hi Inés,
Thank you for your additional explanations. I feel like I'm starting to understand what you're trying to do here, but I'm still not fully there.
On slide 1.3, do you want people to be able to select only one measure? Or could they potentially select more than one? If they can only select one measure, I'd recommend using radio buttons, not checkboxes, and setting up a button set.
If I've understood correctly, for the rest you'll need to set up two variables for each measure:
- 1 true/false variable that will change depending on whether the learner selects yes/no. Set the initial state to "True".
- 1 numeric variable that will count the "points" based on the learner's answers.
Then, on every slide, you'll need to set up a trigger for each measure that:
- changes the value of the associated variable to false if the associated object is dropped on the "no" drop target
- changes the state of the associated object to "hidden" if the associated variable is "false".
- adds the desired amount of "points" to the associated numeric variable if that measure if is dropped on the "yes" drop target
- adds the desired amount of "points" to the associated numeric variable if that measure if is dropped on the "no" drop target
Then, on the results slide, you'll have to add every measure to all 3 columns. Then, you'll add triggers to determine which of these objects to show, depending on the value of the associated variable.
I came up with a point system that should work. I've attached it here as an Excel file.
Hopefully that makes sense! Good luck :)
