Hey all,
In my course I use the "Matching Drop-down" question slide in a test.
I want the user to fill in the question before they can proceed. Therefor I used a trigger to disabled the "submit" button on the start of this slide's timeline. And I the submit button to be "normal" (clickable) when the user has interacted with the drop-downs.
Problem is: I can't find a trigger which executes when the drop-down is set. Does anyone knows how to proceed?
Kind regards
Hi Thomas,
Good question! We currently don't have a trigger event that monitors when a Matching Dropdown has been interacted with. As a workaround, I recommend connecting the Mouse Hover event with the last dropdown to enable the Submit button. The screenshot below shows that this object corresponds with Text Box 6.
You can find a sample Storyline file attached showing this interaction. Let me know if that works for you!
Hey Eric,
Thanx for your reply. But unfortunately the workaround isn't of much use for me.
The main reasons we want to use the "matching dropdown" quiz (instead of for instance a drag-and-drop quiz) is the possibility to use your keyboard to interact with this quiz, so the quiz could be WCAG compatible.
The Mouse Hover trigger won't react on the keybaord interaction.
If there are any other suggestions, I would be happy to know.
I would use the native function. Leave the Submit trigger there, and if they click it before they make at least one match, they will get the "You must answer" message. The system won't let them proceed until they fill in the question.
