using this tip: but only having the motion path on those that are incorrect?
Here is another way to return dragged objects to the original starting point for multiple retry attempts without having to use a variable:
1. place an add motion animation onto each drag object.
2. set the start and end points to the same point (when the drag object is in its original spot)
3. set duration to 00.10
4. on the Try Again layer - and on the Try Again button set a new trigger for each of the drag objects. (Move 'object' on LineMotionPath1 when the user clicks Try Again button
Thanks for sharing the helpful tips Phil and Kate! I just wanted to chime in and share this free drag and drop download that returns incorrect dragged items and leaves correct ones upon submit. Hope that gives you some more ideas!
Yep. I've just created an interaction which does this. If you want the SL file, let me know.

Hi - so it all worked - EXCEPT the learner has 5 words to place on the target, (ive got 5 hot spots) and they have multiple attempts. But they can drop words on top of each other, and this is not what i want to happen. how to solve this conundrum?

You can use a motion path with the length set to 0
Hey Phil - i will have to research this new fandangled notion!
Cheers!
Just make sure the path is not relative and it will go back to where it came from

and that's all you need to do! :)

I the drag and drop options set it so only one item per drop target
Hi Phil - tried that and it didn;t work......
Do you have drop triggers on your objects as well? I can have a quick look if you can share or drop me a PM
Not sure what i've done wrong!
I would want you SL file if you want to share.
