Help Needed: Skip Questions and Fixing Review Results Functionality"
Hi Mohammed,
Sorry for the delayed response. I missed your recent messages in another thread. I had promised myself to take a closer look at your issue, and here I am attaching the revised version, which I hope provides an acceptable solution, in case you haven’t received one from the support team. The user can now go back and review only the unanswered or skipped questions, and the Review functionality is now working as intended. For better understanding, please compare the triggers in both files and note the differences. If you have any questions or would like me to explain the logic in more detail, please don't hesitate to ask.
Hi I have a similar course with the criteria of reviewing only the unanswered or skipped questions, I downloaded the file and tried to replicate the triggers but I can't seem to get it to work. I understand the triggers except the review button trigger how does it go back to the show only the unanswered/skipped questions? I see the true/false trigger but I don't see how a trigger that makes it true so the learner only sees the unanswered/skipped questions. I don't need learners to review correct/incorrect questions.
If you don’t want learners to review correct/incorrect questions, either avoid using a trigger to set the Review variable to True when the learner clicks the Review button on the Results slide, or simply remove the Review button altogether. The 'Review = True' variable is solely used to enable the Review Correct/Incorrect functionality. You can also disable this trigger:
I recommend carefully reviewing the "answer" layers on each question slide and adjusting the timeline and triggers to align with the setup in the original .story file.
Important Notes:
- The timeline is only 0.25 seconds long.
- Ensure the slide jumps to the next slide when the timeline ends.
- Disable the "Hide Layer" trigger, as it is redundant in this scenario.
- Pay attention to the white rectangle (note its purpose or placement).
If it’s still causing you trouble, feel free to attach a short or simplified version of your project, and I’ll help you set it up to work properly.
I got it to work, thank you for your help!
Hi Liz,
I just noticed that you’ve attached your sample Storyline file. After reviewing it, I see that there isn’t an additional slide between the Draw from Question Bank slide and the next section of the course. This intermediate slide should provide an option to review any skipped questions or proceed to the next part. Ideally, it should look something like this:I have updated the first part for you, fixed the Answered layers, and added an intermediate slide between the first Draw from Question Bank slide and the next part. As I mentioned earlier, the Review variable isn’t necessary in your scenario (reviewing correct/incorrect answers), so I’ve removed redundant references to it from the base layers and the Answer layers. Additionally, I removed the extra Hide Layer trigger on the Answer layers to avoid distractions.
The Answer Now layer should now look like this:
I have also added a small loading GIF on the Answers layer to enhance the user experience. This provides visual feedback while Storyline searches for skipped questions, especially when there are many in the Draw from Question Bank slide, instead of just displaying a white rectangle for a few seconds.
Result:
I encourage you to apply these necessary changes to the rest of your Draw from Question Bank slides, including adding an intermediate slide. To connect the Draw from Question Bank slide to the intermediate slide, switch to Story View and update the trigger to point to your intermediate slide.
I am attaching the updated version of your .story file for reference.
