Freeform questions in Storyline not working?
Hi all - when create a Freeform Question (any type) - I get a completely blank screen in Slide View, and a Form View that is empty (ie. it doesn't have any fields for me to add questions or options to).
Has anyone else experienced this issue and is there a workaround (or am I doing something wrong?)
Screenshot attached, showing the Form View without any fields in it.
Graded Questions appear to work properly (ie. it puts content on the Slide View, and there are fields that appear in Form View).
thanks in advance!
Based on your description and the image, my best guess is that you haven't put any objects on the slide.
- Standard graded questions have default placeholders when you insert them.
- With Freeform questions, you are completely responsible for the design. That means you have to insert all of the objects you want to work with. It's best to insert those objects and then convert to Freeform.

If you do have objects on the slide, but they're not showing, first verify that the eye-icon in the Timeline has not been clicked. (That icon is used to hide objects.)
If that's not the issue, and inserted objects still don't appear, I suggest you submit a case to the staff: https://access.articulate.com/support/contact
