reset interaction

Hi again...
I have another question-
I made a drag and drop interaction with 2 attempts.
I want to do this - after the user try once, he gets a "try again" feedback. when he start the interaction again, I want the objects draged, to go back to their initial place.. and then when he fail, he will get the fail feedback.
If the user continue the course and from some reason wants to go back to this drag and drop slide, I dont want him to do the interaction again... so the system will remember...
I tried many things like- "resume saved state" but it doesn't help...
Thank you again!

Hi Maya,
Mind sharing your .story file so we can have a go at it?
I have no idea how to do this... but I'm trying desperately to get objects in a drag and drop to reset to their original position once the user has clicked on 'retry'.... how is this done?
Hi Cheryl, welcome to the community
I have a hunch there's an easier way to do this, and I hope another community member feels welcome to jump in if so, but I've set it up using a two-step process.
First, I built a trigger on the Try Again button of the Try Again layer that jumps back to the original Drag and Drop slide when the user clicks the Try Again button:
After that, with the base layer of my Drag and Drop selected in the slide panel, I set the properties using the cog wheel to Reset the slide to its initial state when revisiting.
Give that a shot and see if it works for you. And of course, come on back and let us know if you have any questions.
Welcome again, Cheryl
Oh my goodness... that looks so easy... can't wait to try it. Thank you sooooooo much!!!!!
Following the steps above appears to allow users to have unlimited attempts at the complete the question. What step(s) do I need to add to keep the number of attempts at 2?
Hi Jennifer,
Welcome! Not sure exactly what you're looking for, but I created a Screenr here that shows how to set up a Drag and Drop with a number of attempts and to reset it
Hi Jon,
This thread is a bit older, and I'm not certain folks are still subscribed but if there is a particular behavior we could assist you with, please let us know.
Thanks Jon for clarifying and yes, as you mentioned a great feature request.
