Mix Correct Ingredients into Bowl
I have five ingredients in column A and five ingredients in column B. The task is choose the right ingredient from each column into a mixing bowl. If they choose the right matching ingredients, they are correct, but if they choose the wrong ingredients, an error message will alert them.
This seems like an easy matching exercise, but I'm striking out trying to find a walkthrough on how to accomplish this. Any suggestions?
Hi Jim,
Based off of your description, it sounds like you're looking to create a drag and drop interaction. Here's a walkthrough on creating a freeform one.
We also have some webinars that cover drag & drops:

I hope this helps! If this isn't what you're looking for or if you have any questions, please let us know!
Thank you. While these are helpful resources, the issue I'm having is requiring two ingredients to be in combination with each other. For example, the tomato and the avocado go together in the bowl, but any other combination would be wrong. Then the green tea and lemon go together and so on.
I'm running into trouble trying to require two objects in combination to be dragged onto a third object. Most examples are just dragging one object onto another, correct object. Any triggers that I set up use 'or' instead of 'and'.
Never mind. I think I have it. Through a few triggers, I was able to change the 'and's to 'or's and it seems to be working. Luckily, there are only 5 permutations for each object. One is right and the other 4 are wrong. Thanks for helping me think through it.
Hi Jim,
This sounds like an awesome idea! I'm glad to hear that you've got it working as expected. If you run into any trouble, please let us know!
