Where is "score per answer" ??
Hello,
The “score per answer” button does not appear in the settings of my 3 multiple choice questions. I can only choose one “score per question”. Do you know why?
My storyline application is up to date
Thanks in advance

Did you accidentally insert Multiple Response questions (any number of the checkbox responses can be selected) instead of Multiple Choice (only 1 of the radio-button responses can be selected)?
- If so, you'll need to recreate the slides as Multiple Choice questions. Those allow scoring by answer. (Multiple Response questions can only be scored by question.)
- If they are Multiple Choice questions yet you still can't Score By Choice, I suggest you contact the support staff. You can do that here: Contact Support for Help with Any Articulate E-Learning Course Development Software

Thank you for your reply, Judy.
It's my mistake, in fact I wanted to talk about my standard Multiple Response questions, in which I can't set the score per answer. Only score by question is possible... Any Idea about this problem ?

As I said in my previous comment, Storyline doesn't have a built-in option to score a Multiple Response slide per answer. You're not seeing it because it doesn't exist.
I can understand why. There are so many potential variations of how to assign partial credit to a Multiple Response question, especially related to the responses that shouldn't be selected. For example, some might want to add points if the user didn't select a wrong answer. Some might want to subtract points if a user does select a wrong answer. Or not use the state of the wrong answer at all when figuring points.
It could also get tricky if you want all questions to be worth a given number of points (for example, 10 points). Then how do you divvy up the points when there are 3 or 4 responses?
A while back, I did create a demo for giving partial credit on a custom Multiple Response question, because I've seen people ask about this a few times in the Forum. Here it is:
Personally, I've never given partial credit for a Multiple Response question, and I doubt I ever will. I think it would rarely be worth the extra programming effort. But good luck if you want to give it a try.
