How can I get learner to fill in a field before slides moves on...

Hi Meera,

Are you using the Text Entry Field to capture the learner's name? This is the field that can capture what the learner types, such as their name, store the information in a variable, and allow you to retrieve it later.

In Storyline, you can go to Insert>Input>Text Entry Field. The learner can input their name, which is stored in a text variable, typically called "Text Entry" unless you change the name.

Later, you can recall that information from the Text Entry variable by inserting a Text Box wherever you need it. After creating the text box, choose Insert>Reference and choose the Text Entry variable that you used to capture the learner's name. Whatever was typed in the initial text entry box will show up as the reference inside your text box.

Did you create a question slide instead of a normal slide? Perhaps that is why you are being asked for a submission and having it marked incorrect?
