Storyline multiple drag objects and multiple target areas
Since the customer information is confidential, I build a similar drag & drop question, inspired by the holiday season.
Watch how I did it. On slide 2 and 3 there is an explanation. Under the resources tab you can download the file and study the details.
Click here or on the picture to see the animation.
Click here to see the screenr.
The file is also attached to this post for your evaluation.
Let me know your suggestions. Have a great holiday season.
regards,
Wim Timmerman
ps: in addition I have created an alternative scenario, where the dropped items are evaluated all the time. See my screenr for more info: https://player.vimeo.com/video/204928692

I wonder if anyone can help with an issue I'm having using Wim's great solution?!
I have set up a freeform interaction in a similar way, where the drag objects can have multiple correct drop targets (I have used hotspots). Each drop target is quite large and will have 2-4 drag objects in it when the user is finished. However, because the drop targets are not assigned in the form view but are made manually, I cannot make the drag objects "tile" on the hotspot. They are stacking on top of each other which makes it impossible for the user to see which objects they have put where.
Does anyone know a way around this? Thanks!
I have this same situation. Did anyone come up with a solution?
Thank you so much! This is one of the most useful tutorials I have seen! You've saved me a lot of time :-)
Wonderful! Thank you so much for this helpful tutorial!
Wim, this was a fantastic solution. Between the Triggers, Variables, and AND/OR... I had flashbacks to SalesForce Report Builder. :) Thank you very much.
This is so Hero-worthy. Thanks Wim huge timesaver!
Thank you so much for this tutorial.
I had one more query regarding this drag and drop template, as this is a Freeform screen can we use this as scored question and score for this screen will be added in the result screen.
Thanks.
Merry Christmas!
Thanks for sharing very good example. I am also trying similar type of interactivity but the problems I am facing are:
1. Object Overlapping - If user drop similar object or all objects on single/one drop area then this functionality is not working.
2. Drop object doesn't come to its original position - Actually when user drops the second drop item on drop area that time already drop item should come out to its original position.
Other than these issues this functionality is good.
Please share your ideas to solve above two problems.
Really great help. Thanks.

Not sure why, but I can't delete the trigger "Submit interaction Drag and Drop1". The trash can is greyed out when I select this trigger. I've followed all the other steps. Any ideas?
Hi Hugh
which example are you referring to from the above posts the original Xmas tree story or Abhijeet's file?
Easier to help if you can upload your story file
Hi Wendy. Sorry I was referring to the original Xmas tree example. I was following along with the PDF instructions that were provided. It's step 10 where it says to delete the 'Submit interaction Drag and Drop1' that is not working for me as I can't seem to delete it. I'm probably missing something really simple. I've attached story file. Thanks.
