How to create a geography quiz
Hi all,
Has anyone any idea how to create the great quiz that someone created below:
I consider that I am quite familiar with Storyline now but struggling to even start with something like this.
Thanks Chris

It looks like that quiz is a collection of Freeform Pick One questions.
To create each question, you'd need a slide that has these objects:
- A freeform transparent shape that is drawn to match the outline of the country that is "correct" for that slide.
- A rectangle that covers the rest of the map, which would be the "wrong" thing to click. Be sure this is below the "correct" shape.
- The map of Europe
- This would be best on the Master slide. That would ensure it stays in the same position.
With those elements in place on a regular slide, you'd convert the slide to a Freeform Pick One, indicate which objects are clickable, and which one correct.
Here's more info about Freeform slides:

Thanks Judy. Yes I can see that now. However trying to get that freeform shape the same as the outline of the country.......
The example that Olga created seems to match the outline perfectly. Is there a tool in storyline that can do that?

Unfortunately, Storyline doesn't include any tools for automatically tracing an object.
To trace something in Storyline, I'd put the original object on a Master slide. Or put it on the base of a slide, and do the tracing on a layer. You could also do that in PowerPoint.

Hi Chris! These quizzes look very nice. I would ask the same question. If you think, that Storyline is too difficult for you know, you could try to create a quiz even in powerpoint:D
