The workaround was to create a blank slide. Add the widget called Cards. Adjust the number of flipcards to 1. Then add the component Checkbox and remove “Label.” Then duplicate to determine how many choices you want. In my example I did option 1 and option 2. Click and highlight the checkbox you want as the correct answer. Then go to Visual Properties, scroll all the way down to Reporting. Check the box that says Report to Quizzing. Finally add another interactive component which is a button. Set the action to go to next slide which was the Quiz Results page in this example. Upon preview, clicking option 1 will show it is the correct answer.

Hi,

Thank you for your query.

Yes, it can be done . Each checkbox gets a variable (True/False). When a learner checks or unchecks it, the variable updates. When they click Submit, the button checks the combination of variables against the correct answer pattern, then changes the state of your feedback paragraph to either “Correct” or “Incorrect.”

Step 1 — Create Your Variables: You need one variable per checkbox (e.g., 5 checkboxes = 5 variables).

1. Click the gear icon (Project Properties) in the right toolbar.Find the Variables section and click + (Create a variable).Create 5 variables, one per checkbox:- For example

cb1 — Type: True/False — Default value: False

cb2 — Type: True/False — Default value: False

cb3 — Type: True/False — Default value: False and so on.

Step 2- Set Up Your Slide Layout: Your slide should have:An image block (your image).A paragraph/text block for the question. 5 individual Checkbox components (added one at a time via Add interactive components > Checkbox)

A Button block labeled “Submit”. A Paragraph block for feedback (this will use States).

Step 3 — Add Interactions to Each Checkbox: For each checkbox, you’ll tell it: “When selected, set my variable to True. When deselected, set it back to False.”

For Checkbox 1:

1. Select Checkbox 1 → open the Interactions panel (right toolbar).
2. Trigger is already set to Selection.
3. Under Action, choose Assign variable.
4. Select variable cb1 → set it to True. Click Done.
5. Now add a second interaction for Deselection (there’s a Deselection tab in the checkbox interactions).
6. Action: Assign variable cb1 → False.Click Done.Repeat for all Checkboxes .

Step 4 — Add States to Your Feedback Paragraph
This is where your correct/incorrect text lives.

1. Select your feedback paragraph block. In the Visual Properties panel, go to States → click Show (or Add).
2. The States flyout opens. You’ll see a Default state.
3. Click + to add a new state → name it Correct. In this state, type your correct feedback text (e.g., “Well done! You identified the right hazards.”). Style it green if you like.
4. Add another state → name it Incorrect. Type your incorrect feedback text. Style it differently.
5. In the Default state, either leave it blank or type a placeholder like “Select your answers then click Submit.”
6. Click Exit State to return to the slide.

Step 5 — Add Interactions to the Submit Button:  The button checks all 5 variables and decides which state to show.

Decide your correct answer first. For example: checkboxes 1, 3, and 5 are correct (cb1=True, cb2=False, cb3=True, cb4=False, cb5=True).

1. Select the Submit button → open Interactions panel.

2. Trigger: Click/Tap (default).

3.Click + near Conditions.

4. Add 5 conditions (one per variable), all joined by AND:

  – Variable cb1 Is Equal To → True

  – Variable cb2 Is Equal To → False

  – Variable cb3 Is Equal To → True

  – Variable cb4 Is Equal To → False

  – Variable cb5 Is Equal To → True

1. Under Action (the “If true” branch): choose Set State.

• Select your feedback paragraph object.
• Set state to: Correct.

1. Click + Add else action (or the “Otherwise” / else branch).
2. Under this else action: Set State → feedback paragraph → Incorrect.
3. Click Save / Done.

Step 6 — Preview and Test: Click Preview (top toolbar) → Preview project or Preview this slide.
