Hello Everyone! ✨
I'm happy to share that we have released a new update for Storyline 360 (Build 3.76.30446.0).

What causes it is the custom return triggers, They move the drop objects, but don't inform the targets. So when trying again, when the learner clicks an object, the system thinks it is still in the last dropped location, and shows it moving from there.
Perhaps the easiest solution is not to clear the targets on trying again. Personally, I think that is a stronger option, pedagogically speaking.
If you must have the tiling and clearing, there is a solution. It's posted at https://community.articulate.com/discussions/articulate-storyline/drag-and-drop-solution-sample-with-multiple-correct-targets-with-drag-off-and-return-plus-a-lot-more
Be warned that it is an industrial strength solution. It will show how to do what you want, but will require enough work that it seems to me to be useful only to those who absolutely need both tiling and object return. It contains several DnD options. I think slide 1.7 is most likely the one that shows what you want.
