Pick Many -- multiple correct responses
I'm sorry if this is a stupid question!
I wanted to do a Pick Many where three out of five answers are correct.
However, I would like for learners to get a 'correct' response even if they choose just one of the right answers.
Is this possible? Right now I can't get it to work... learners have to select all three, or they get an incorrect result.

Hello. This might not be the correct thread, but my question does revolve around a pick-many interaction.
In my scenario, the learner has 4 possible answer choices, two of them being correct. The learned needs to select both correct answers to be shown the correct feedback. The correct and incorrect feedback is on two separate slides - instead of layers.I have it working, I think, but the transition to the feedback is choppy and seems clunky. Would anyone have any suggestions?
Hi Martin,
I know that you were able to find a solution to your setup and wanted to link your conversation here for anyone that runs across this conversation in the future.

hi, anyone could help me explain this case:
on the slide 1.6 and 1.7: radio button/check box and oval 1_2, i did the same trigger and state but
1.6: i could only click T or F (this one is correct way)
1.7: T and F are selected at the same timePlease help me!

Hi, Sa.
Thank you for sharing your .story file!
I believe you meant slide 1.7 is working correctly (you can only select true OR false), while slide 1.6 allows you to pick both options.
You can fix this by selecting the buttons and adding them to a button set (Right-click > Button Set > New set):

I also want to mention that, while you can achieve this effect with checkboxes (just like you did in Slide 1.7), I would use radio buttons instead for design purposes. When it comes to User Interface, your learners will expect that radio button choices are mutually exclusive (one or the other), while checkboxes allow them to select more than one option from a list of choices.

please help on slide 1.9 - WaltHamiltonSuper Hero
I work a lot with little kids, and one of the things I will do with them is to approach one whose name I know. I will say to him, "Jake, what's your name?" It confuses them beyond belief; only the brightest know how to respond.
That's what these triggers are doing to the submit function:
You go into the form view to set which items need to be selected, and when these triggers attempt to do it, it is really confusing. Delete them, and you and the submit function will be much happier. Of course, you will have to add a Submit Pick Many interaction trigger.
Then when Submit is no longer confused, there is another problem:
I know it is a lot easier to select the correct answers by what they say, but the text is never selected, the check boxes are selected. So all these answers in the Form View need to be changed to the corresponding check boxes.
Then with Submit working correctly, these triggers (and all the ones like them) are a problem:
Again, the text is not selected, it is the Check Boxes that are selected, and they need to be in these triggers.
Personally, if I'm the learner, I want to check on the text, and forget about the check boxes. If you want to do it that way, on slide 1.10, I've made the changes I've suggested, as well as given a sample (for "Thank you very much. That was helpful.") that shows how the text can be clicked, instead of the check box.

Hi there, I can't seem to ADD choices in a pick many activity, so that they align with the look
the template has 4 built in options, but when i try to add a choice, creating a NEW button doesnt seem to work?
