Graded Quiz: Fill In The Blank

Hi Katelin! Do you have a .story file that you would like someone to take a look at? I'm not following your question fully.

Just wanted to say thank you!!

Glad that this older thread was able to assist you as well Matthew. Thanks for popping in to share your sentiments :)

I am very new to storyline (using storyline 2) and I'am attempting to recreate the video. I keep getting an incorrect answer stating "you must complete the question before submitting." Any quidance on how to fix the issue would be greatly appreciated :).

Hi Michael,

That error message is what indicated the user didn't select or chose any answers yet - so if you think you've selected an answer and you're still seeing that it sounds like something we'd want to take a look at your .story file to see how it's set up and behaving.

Thank you very much for the quick response Ashley and Wendy. I didn't even think about the order of the triggers. That fixed my problem! Thank you both so much!

Happy to help Michael! 

OK, I'm obviously doing something wrong.  I attempted to set up the variables and conditions as I thought were done in the video, but when I test the slide two errors happen.  1) the names of the various bird parts show up rather than the text "type your text here" and 2) when I hit submit I'm told to complete all the answers before submitting.  Where am I going wrong?

I've attached the slide I'm working with.  Have only been working on the trigger for the correct button.

Thanks in advance for all your help!

Hi Melanie

first thing - in the variable list you had already entered the default value to equal the answer - these should be left blank that is why you were seeing them already displayed on the slide. 

A couple of the variables were mis matching in your triggers.  

I've updated your file and also moved the correct/incorrect buttons and added text boxes with the variable references - we do this to test that things are happening as they should be with the variables - you can remove them when you want to.

You'll also need to add a trigger to change state of 'incorrect' button to selected if they get any wrong.  The easiest trigger to do is:

Change state of 'incorrect' button to selected when user clicks submit on condition state of correct button is not 'selected'.  The alternative trigger is:

Change state of 'incorrect' button to selected when user clicks submit on condition that each of the fields is not equal to the correct answer - you used the AND condition in the correct trigger use the OR condition for the incorrect trigger.

Hope this helps - any questions - just shout out.

Very good to know, thanks for sharing the discussion with the answer.
