Hi and Good day to everyone. Can it be possible to create a multiple 'Text Entry' Quiz in storyline? 3-4 text entry that the user will answer to fill in the blanks? Thanks and best regards, ...

Hi Marcus!

Jeanette doesn't make it back to the forums as often, but it looks like you were getting a lot of assistance in the thread you referenced. Would you be able to share a sample .story file so that you could get further assistance?

    Hi Leslie 

    I was if you think its best to post the question there I will do. But here is a file anyway. 

    The page itself isn't finished but the triggering and variables are at a point where i don't see why they wouldn't work.

    You watch it'll be something daft.

      Hi Marcus

      I'd definitely echo what Leslie is saying that all the text entry boxes that you are trying to evaluate should be on the base layer where your correct/incorrect buttons are being triggered.

      Also in the 'incorrect' trigger, the condition should be OR not AND as any one of those entries that is not right gives an incorrect answer.

      I've moved the contents of the text entry and screenshot layers to the base layer - haven't done instructions yet.  I also updated the incorrect trigger.

      I'm not a fan of hotspots so I created a transparent rectangle that I am using as the 'click' to submit...but you can try changing back to hotspot if you like - I hid the hotspot on the timeline by clicking the eye icon (show hide) next to it. I also moved it to appear after the zoom out finishes.

      It appears to be working as I would expect - but that's your call if it is ;-) when I get the answers correct it takes me to the next slide

        Hi 

        Thanks for taking a look Leslie and Wendy. 

        Leslie,  that might be because this is my first time with Storyline, trying something complicated and I have always worked with layers in graphics, so I naturally though to separate parts into layers. I assume this is not best practice with Storyline? What would the layers be used for then?

        Wendy - it does work now great thanks. Hopefully this with work as a template for the other slides I need to create. I will continue with the transparent rectangle in future. 

        Thanks again for the help. No doubt if this is successful and we start using storyline more, I'll be on here more often. 

         

        Marcus
