No Shuffle Option for Matching Drag & Drop
Hello All,
I am working with Storyline 4:1311.1422 and I added a Quiz slide using Insert (tab) -> New Slide -> Quizzing -> Graded (tab) -> Matching Drag and Drop.
I noticed that when I click on the Edit Matching Drag and Drop button I have no option to shuffle the answers! I filled everything in and saved it and sure enough there is no option to shuffle the answers. This means that the order I place the Drag Object and the Target is exactly how it shows up in the quiz, which defeats the purpose of using a drag and drop interaction.
I have followed the same steps from story view and from within a question bank, but I still find the Shuffle option greyed out.
Please let me know if you are experiencing the same thing.
Thanks!
Follow up --- I just tested my question in Publish --- and it DOES shuffle. However, as stated above, it does not shuffle for me in Preview ---
Hi Pedro,
The shuffling of answers is something that isn't currently possible in Matching Drag and Drop questions. It would make a nice feature request though,
There is the option of using a Freeform Drag and Drop as mentioned here. That would allow you to shuffle answers.
Always Happy to Help,
Adrian
the matching drag and drop shuffles by default, it has to or it would show the correct answers every time .
Phil,
Thanks! That was my next question!
I thought I had lost my mind there for a sec.
Adrian: thanks to you as well. I will add it to my list of feature requests.
Same here, Pedro!
Same here. Very nasty bug
Hi Daniela,
It's still considered a feature request, so you'll want to share your thoughts with our product team here.
I am having the same problem - so this makes the drag and drop graded quiz option non-functional in this version of Articulate? Mine is not shuffling by default. All the user has to do is drag the response to the box directly across from it.
Hi Katelynn,
Welcome to E-Learning Heroes! The form-based drag and drop question should shuffle by default, otherwise, it would be as easy as dragging across as you mentioned!
Here's a screenshot of what I'm seeing when I preview my slide:
You won't see this on the slide as you're authoring, but if you preview your question, it should shuffle. Do you know what update of Storyline you're on? You can view this by going to the Help tab, and clicking About Storyline.
ridiculuous
