Captivate 2019 Drag and Drop - Multi State Objects as Drop Targets

Greetings Everyone. I did not find the answer to my question in the discussion. Please assist, if possible. 
 
My Drag and Drop project has eight multi state objects for drop targets. The Reset All radial buttons is selected. Hence, the drag objects return to their original position when an incorrect answer is submitted. However, the multi state objects drop targets retain their current state. ISSUE: How can I have Captivate reset all Drop targets to their Normal state when the drag objects return to their original position after Submit (with incorrect answer) is pressed?
 
Kind regards,
Sam Pearson

    .There have been so many releases under the common name CP2019. Please give the full version number which  can be found under Help, About Captivate.

    You will probably need to create an advanced action as Failure action.

    Thank you for the reply. My Captivate 2019 version is 11.5.5.553. I agree that an advanced action would solve my issue. Any assistance on how to start the advanced (conditional) action would be highly appreciated. Basically, IF the answer submitted is incorrect for the drag and drop, I want the drag objects to be reset (returned to original position) and the drop objects change state to "Normal." Otherwise, Continue.

    OK, I still have that version as well.

    I need some more information:

    • Is the D&D slide configured as Knowledge Check slide or as scored Quiz slide?
    • Are the states in the Drop Target InBuilt states or custom states. 

    For the second question: are you aware of the existense of InBuilt states both for drag sources and drop targets? Have a look at this old blog post:
