Thank you
Hi Surya and welcome to the Heroes community!
I think this thread and specifically Jeannette's screenr at the bottom will help you to accomplish what you need.
Let us know if you need anything else!

Hi Ashley thanks for the reply.
I want to to reveal the correct answer after incorrect attempts for Quizzing type single choice and multiple choice in articulate storyline

Hi Surya and Ashley,
It looks like the links are to Quizmaker quizzes.
For tutorials on Storyline quizzes, perhaps this thread will help. If you scroll, you'll see that Step 5 is: Choose the number of attempts.
Also, Surya, if you have a question slide that you've prepared, the community could take a look and help to trouble shoot it.
Oh, and if you click the question mark button in Storyline (the one right under the X to exit on the top right of the screen) you can access lots of tutorials.
Thanks Rebecca for the additional links!

Hi Surya,
I've created a story (really barebones) that achieves your end goal, but it's a bit of work. Explanation as to why below. If anyone knows a more efficient way to do this, I'm all ears.
Also, when you said above "Quizzing type single choice and multiple choice" I assumed you meant multiple choice (1 correct answer) and multiple response (more than 1 correct answer), so that's what I did in the attached. I'm using MC for multiple choice and MR for multiple response below.
First, it would be easier to do this if SL allowed us to copy/paste the MC/MR boxes that are on the base layer, but this can't be done.
So, in order to get Learners to a correct answer AND have the submit button dimmed (because they've already submitted they're answer), I duplicated the correct answer layer and named it Correct Answer.
BUT
The complication is that SL shows the correct layer with the last incorrect answer Learners chose.
SO
On this Correct Answer layer, I created option buttons (MC) and check boxes (MR) to "match" those in the associated questions and ticked off the correct answers. I positioned these correctly and then hid the Base Layer MC and MR boxes.
ANOTHER COMPLICATION
The default correct answer prompt appears which is misleading, since Learners actually didn't get the answer correct...and it's kind of in the way. So, I went into the Feedback master and repositioned the Feedback placeholder rectangle and divider line (master layout at the top) and feedback boxes and continue button (Correct Feedback and Try Again feedback layouts).
THEN
I went to the correct answer layer for MC and MR and inserted a rectangle over that default rectangle, made it white fill/white background to match the slide background, and edited to provide Learners with better feedback. I also made sure the continue button was in front of this rectangle, and that it jumped to the next slide.
VARIABLES TO MAKE THIS WORK
Whenever we choose to have more than 1 attempt in a quiz, SL automatically creates an AttemptCount variable. So, on the base layer of the MC and MR questions I added a trigger that says:
Show layer
Correct Answer (this is the duplicate layer I created)
When User clicks
Submit button
On condition: attemptcount is equal to or greater than 2
Please shout out with any questions.
And, community/staff, if there's an easier way, please do share!

Hi Rebecca,
First my apology for late reply.
The solution you provided can work, but it will be more helpfull if we have that funcitonality in the template itself

Hi Suray,
Totally forgot about this one!
I agree, it's a ton of work, at least the way I worked it out. Perhaps someone has an easier solution.

Hi,
I am trying to do something similar to this where the correct answer is displayed after 2 attempts, has anyone got a simpler solution that this.
Hi Qasem! If you have your question set to two attempts, learners will see a Try Again layer and then an Incorrect layer by default.
What does your incorrect feedback layer look like? Could you add an indicator to show which answer was the correct one?
- QasemParvezCommunity Member
Hi Crystal,
Thank you for your reply, will I add the indicator on the Master Slide, if so won't this appear on all quiz answers.
I want to show the right answer for each quiz after 2 attempts.
