Timed Questions That Allow Learner to Choose Correct Answer but Marks the Answer Incorrect
I am trying to create an assessment where each question has a set amount of second to answer before you are too late and get an incorrect answer to your final score. I am wanting them to see the incorrect response only if they choose the incorrect answer, to see a too slow response if they take too long and a correct response if they answer before the time limit.
I cannot figure out how to have the question mark as incorrect if they see the Too Slow layer by choosing the right answer too late. As of now, they still show as correct in the results slide.
How can I have the question mark as incorrect if they choose the right answer but after a set amount of time? I have looked in this forum and used CoPilot for assistance with no luck. Please review my attached course file if you would like to look at it.

Hello ChrisMartin-2ff,
Thanks for reaching out!
There are many ways to approach this design, so I'll share my method, which uses Storyline 360's built-in variables. The specific built-in variable I'll be using is the Slide.ElapsedTime, which tracks the cumulative elapsed time spent on a slide. I've attached a working demo that displays a "Too Slow" layer and marks the question as incorrect if a learner takes longer than 4 seconds to answer the question.
You'll notice I forced the slide to select an incorrect response using triggers to ensure the slide marks an incorrect response after 4 seconds. The forced variable is there to control of the "Too Slow" layer will appear or not.
I'll let other community members chime in with their recommendations to give you options.
Let me know if you have any questions!
