Storyline
Hello,
I need some help with my drag and drop freeform question.
On the attached image, I would like to do is match the sun with small w with the cloud with big W and the same for the sun with small k and cloud with big K. If user matches the sun with small w incorrectly meaning they match it to the big K, it should display the feedback message but then the sun with small w should go back to its original position. If user matches everything correctly, it would move on to the next slide.
I do not have any idea to work this out so help would be appreciated. Ideal if there will have no states and variables created.
Hi, Steffi, and welcome to E-Learning Heroes! ✨
Thank you for sharing the screenshot!
Based on your description, it sounds like a freeform Drag-and-drop will be the way to go. Here's an article to get you started:
I'm also attaching a sample .story file based on your description:
I hope this helps!
Hello Maria!
Thank you so much for this sample, I appreciate it.
In this sample you gave, it seems that once user matches everything already, and press the submit button, the feedback message would appear. What I would like to be able to do is, when user drags for example in this case the small sun k to big cloud k, then i would get the feedback message saying its correct and same for the other and if matched wrongly, i would get the feedback message saying its wrong. So basically to get the feedback message without the submit button.
Hi, Steffi.
Thank you for clarifying!
In Form View, under Drag & Drop options, make sure the delayed feedback option is unchecked:
When you do that, you will be able to create Drop Correct and Drop Incorrect states, and you can use them in a few different ways.
Option 1:
- Create a Drop Incorrect state for each of your Suns (avoid using groups here), where the incorrect message is added to that state:
This is what it will look like:
Option 2:
- Add a trigger to show the Incorrect layer when the state of the object is Drop Incorrect. You will need to do this for all your objects:
I hope this helps!
Hello,
I am unable to figure out how to do it by option2, is it okay if you could send a sample storyfile?
Hi Maria,
Thank you so much! I will give it a go!
Is it okay to show your sample .story file of the option 2 for reference?Absolutely, Steffi. Glad Maria's example will help you.
Hi, Steffi.
I'm happy to help! Please find the sample attached for Option #2 above.
Let me know if this helps!
Thank you so much! It helps a lot! :D
