Drag and Drop Interaction Wizard

Report · Oct 19, 2015

Hello,

Does anyone know that many-to-one relationship supported in Drag and Drop Interaction Wizard in Captivate 8? Looks perfectly works for one-to-one relation, but can't make it work for many-to-one.

Thanks!

Can you give more details? I have been using the D&D in CP8 for many-to-one dragging. Personally I never use the wizard, just the D&D panel, but you can easily start with the wizard and tweak later on. The snapping section for the drop targets lets you even specify how many drag sources have to appear when dropped, why should that be necessary if you couldn't use many-to-one target dragging?

Hi Lilybiri,

Thanks for the response.

I used the 'Drag and Drop Interaction Wizard' in Captivate 8, and to make simple, I only created 3 images; two for drags and one for drop. No types are specified. I connected the arrow from drag_1 to drop_1, and drag_2 to drop_1. When I do preview from the slide by dragging either of drag_1/drag_2 to drop_1, the failure text comes up. Only way to get the success message is to move both drag_1 and drag_2 to drop_1. But I want to make it dragging either one of them will lead to correct message.

After reading your response, I clicked the drop_1 image, I only see 'Position', 'Size', 'Depth', and 'Audio' under 'Snap Behavior'. This is under 'DRAG AND DROP' tab on the properties.

Please let me know.

Thanks for your help!! Much appreciated.

Snapping only appears when you select a drop target, not a drag source. Maybe have a look at my blog post:

You have to check the correct answers, what is required precisely.

If you want me to check your settings, can you post screenshots of Object actions and Correct answers, Format tab of the target?

As long as you keep 'Anchor' as Snap settings, all objects will have their center point snapping to the center point of the target. If you choose Tile, you'll be able to choose the way the drag sources are tiled. I was referring to that setting.

Thanks Lilybiri, I figured it out.

I wanted to be able to make two different sources to be correct answer for one target. I simply made the two version of correct answers using source A to target A, and source B to target A. Now user can pick either source A/B to be correct.

Thanks!
