Skipping questions in graded questions and returning to skipped questions
Hi. I want to skip some questions in graded questions. I want these questions to be saved somewhere and I want to return to these skipped questions whenever I want. For this, I want there to be a button in the player. How to do this? I'm newbie here. So please consider this when you explain the way to do it.
Hi timucin,
Happy to help!
I understand you're looking for the ability for your learners to skip graded questions and return to them later on. Is that right?
While this design might differ from what you are expecting, I'd like to share a workaround where you can change the submission method for the question bank slides.
Here's how you can go about creating this in your course:
1. Create a Question Bank for this type of request. Then, modify the navigation for the questions included by selecting Next/Prev, and unselecting the Submit button for each graded question.
2. Insert a Question Draw into your course selecting all questions
3. Include a Result Slide following the questions.
Here's a quick 3-minute Peek where I walk you through my sample file!
As I mentioned in my Peek, you may want to warn learners about skipping questions and ask them to confirm that they're ready to submit their answers before jumping to the result slide. If they reach the result slide without answering all the questions, it'll negatively impact their scores.
Attached you'll find a copy of my sample .story file. I hope this helps!

Hello Luciana, could you please tell me, how are you selecting the Next/Prev button and unselecting the Submit button for the graded question slides that are in the question bank? I don't see that option anywhere, especially since the bank doesn't show the individual slides in "Story view". Thank you.
Hi FernandoArevalo,
Thanks for reaching out!
You'll want to:
1. Navigate to the Question Bank where you have created your questions.
2. Select the Question Slide you'd like to adjust. You will want to look on the bottom right-hand side of your screen for Slide Properties for each question.
3. Go ahead and check and uncheck the appropriate buttons you'd like selected or deselected for your slide.
Please let me know if any other questions come up. Happy to help!
Hello Luciana,
Sorry for the late return. I looked 2 days ago, but there were still some things I couldn't figure out. I looked again today, thank you very much.I created a Question Bank as you said. Then I did the Question Draw operation. But I couldn't open this Question Drawer in the story view. So I couldn't see the questions in it in the form of individual slides. I couldn't solve it. For this reason, instead of the process you said, I solved the problem by opening the Scene containing the slides in Story View and selecting them one by one with CTRL and mause left click and unchecking the submit button. The problem is solved. Thank you for this. But there is another problem. It is like this: I am preparing a quiz with multiple choice questions. Everything looks right in Storyline 360. But after publishing, some question choices are aligned differently than others. I don't understand what's causing this. I'm using Windows 11 and Vivaldi based on Chrome as a browser. I'm sharing the story I prepared, I'd appreciate it if you take a look.
Another problem before I forget. There are 80 questions in the quiz I prepared and each question should be 1.25 points. In total, a person who gets them all right will get 100 points. But we cannot assign fractional points to the questions. Why is that? Is there a solution for this?
Note: I prepared a story again, a multiple choice question quiz. This time I didn't resize the answer choices, I didn't touch them at all, I left them as they were. I prepared 16 questions and published them. And this time the choices were aligned correctly.
Hello timucin,
Apologies for the late reply. I wanted to share that we haven't forgotten about the behavior you raised. I tested your project file in Storyline 360's latest version and can confirm that I could replicate the behavior. I tried switching the font used by the slide to Arial and importing the slide to a new file but this didn't fix the issue. I also toggled the "Text is read from:" option in the Player settings to "Right to Left" but this didn't change anything.
I opened a support case on your behalf to connect you with a support engineer. You're in good hands, and someone from our team will be in touch shortly to help troubleshoot!
