How to get user to select all correct choices before continuing.
FYI: Built-in states come with built-in functionality.
Any object with a Normal state and a Selected state will automatically toggle between those two states when clicked—without any triggers.
- Thus, you don't need those triggers that toggle between the states.
The exception: If you put multiple objects with Normal and Selected states into a Button Set, selecting one will automatically deselect the others. In other words, you can only select one at a time (as in a Multiple Choice question).
- There's no way to deselect all of them after the first one has been clicked, unless that's done with a trigger. But since this is how a button set should work, I'd say there's no need for such a trigger.
- Here's the User Guide info on Button Sets: https://community.articulate.com/series/articulate-storyline-360/articles/articulate-storyline-360-user-guide-how-to-work-with-button-sets
In my experience, as well as based on what I've seen in the Forum, it's best to let the built-in functions work on their own. In other words, don't add triggers that duplicate what will already happen. That might cause problems.
Also, it's more stable to use "≠Selected" ("is not Selected") as a condition, instead of "=Normal" ("is Normal"). As Hero Walt Hamilton once put it: like us, every state thinks it's Normal. In other words, Normal underlies every state, so an "=Normal" condition doesn't always work as expected.
