Multiple Text Entry Quiz
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,
Louise

Thank you Wendy, I will look at it. Can you tell me what you found/did so i know what i am doing next time. :) thank you!!
So one thing i may have done wrong is change the submit button of the pick one to a prev and next button option (rather than submit). Do you have to do submit on the pick one slides?
Because i noticed if i do a prev/next button option it marks it incorrect no matter what.
I need to use a result page for scoring with multiple text entry in one question. Can I do this? Or if i create custom interactivity then can I pass the score to result page without converting it to Free Form?
Hi Deepak,
Since the multiple text entry is a custom question set up, it won't be included as a part of the results/scoring - so you'd need to set up another question to track the value of that question. Since multiple choice questions allow you to score by answer, you could set it up to "select" the answer that matches the score the user is to receive based on the text entry. You could either move all the items off screen and add additional information there for the user to see - or set it up as a "jump to slide next slide " when timeline starts - and just ensure that trigger appears after the one to set the state of the question.
I too would like to have a 2 text entry on one slide quiz in Storyline 2. I have followed how to set up the correct/incorrect buttons, however I am struggling with how to indicate what the correct text should be for the 2 text entry boxes.... can someone point me in the right direction please
Hi Patricia!
Did you check out the Screenr that Jeanette shared on the first page of replies? It walks you through how to set this up.
Hi Leslie
I did follow it... and managed to set up the correct/incorrect buttons so no issue there ... however the Screenr didnt go into enough detail (for me) on how to set up the text fields triggers/states ... ie how to set it up so that it looks at all the text entry fields and sets the states accordingly (Iam fairly new to Storyline so I am still getting my head around the variables/values and conditions functions!)
Hi Patricia
do you want to upload your story file - easier for someone to help you if we can see your setup. Just click the Add attachment button in the post and upload your Storyline file.
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 Marcus! I have not had a chance to put my finger on it yet, but it's due to the layers for sure. I've never seen someone set up a slide like this. If you're choosing to have all of the content displayed, could you not put all of this information on the base layer?
Hi
I said I would be back.
Is a way of setting up a further trigger to allow the learner to hit a key e.g. tab or enter to then move to the next text entry field?
Ha ha
that was quick. On the Home tab, near the Layout option is the Tab order option. This allows you to set a custom order when the learner tabs between fields. You will notice a yellow box that highlights the field that is tabbed to - this is for screen readers and accessibility.
This tutorial should help you

The link was great sorted it out quickly.
Must remember to do that on the master slide at the start of every project, lots of time saving there.
