Reset question slide when incorrect answer and resume saved state when correct answer:
Hi there,
How do I program my question slides to resume saved state when the question is answered correctly and to reset when the question is answered incorrectly?
At the moment I have the base slide properties set to 'reset initial state'. They get the answer wrong, I take them back to review something, and they land back on the same question (which has reset) to attempt again. They get it right and can move on but ... if they happen to navigate back to that same question after getting it right, I want it to resume the saved state of the correctly answered question, not reset.
I've tried so many options with variables on the base and correct and incorrect layers that I've just confused myself. I'm sure there is a simple solution here. Please advise.
Many thanks in advance
Where do I find the attached sample project? Flip, I hope this isn't a stupid question. I've clicked on the links in the message but don't see it.
Hello ShaneJansenv609,
Happy to help!
This one is quite tricky because you need your question slides to do two things but you can only select one slide revisit behavior.The best slide revisit behavior to use in this case would be "Reset to initial state" since a big part of your interaction relies on resetting the slide on succeeding attempts. To get around the questions resetting after answering the question correctly, you can simply add a layer that appears on a slide revisit to indicate that the answer has already been answered correctly. I've attached a sample project file demonstrating this solution.
Hope this helps!
