Quiz types
Is there a quiz slide type that allows the user to choose, say two of 4 correct answers within a list of 6 or more possible answers?
Multiple choice/Pick many requires that all correct answers are chosen.
Mega thanks!
Not out of the box. You could pull that off with a manual build and variables that populate a hidden question, but sometimes the juice is not worth the squeeze.
There may be other solutions out there as well.

Thanks so much Ron. I figured that and have done something similar in another build ... future update maybe?? :)
The partial scoring for a multiple response has been a feature request, probably since SL 1. I am not sure if it will ever make the cut or what it takes under the hood to even try to make it happen. I recommend submitting it as a feature request so the team has another record of the need -
Agree with Ron here, I have built this before, but sometimes it is simpler to just add text to say select two answers, if the user selects more they are obviously wrong
Good thought Phil and simple, but making the choice more challenging can encourage deeper thinking about a subject previously studied.
Thanks so much Ron! Feature requested!
How about using drag and drop, and manually setting the correct/incorrect layer based on conditions?
Thank you for this Joanne. I'll take a look. I'm trying a drag and drop, but even that only allows for one correct drop item per drag item. Still working this through and may just have to create the slide from a blank slide and use triggers to get the results instead of one of the quiz or freeform slides.
I've looked at your file and I think I might be able to adapt it and have it work! If I make all items disabled once two items are dropped and use the variables you have, it should work? :) - potentially ;) THANK YOU!
Hi SylviaWright,
If it requires choosing exactly two options—no more, no less, I suggest placing two target zones for users so they won’t get it wrong. The secret in this simple approach is to create a trigger that tells the system which feedback layer to display, rather than relying on the default one. No variables are needed.- Create a hidden drop target for the two incorrect items outside the canvas. When submitting, their state will change to Drop Incorrect if they were dropped on the targets.
Trigger:
Show the incorrect layer when the user clicks submit if the state of any incorrect item isn’t Normal; otherwise, show the correct layer.
See slide 1.2- Create a hidden drop target for the two incorrect items outside the canvas. When submitting, their state will change to Drop Incorrect if they were dropped on the targets.
