Essay question- trigger on number of characters?

Hi

How can I create a trigger to get a graded survey essay question to give X points if the learner types in more than 20 characters in the answer?

Thanks!

 

  • A graded question has no points associated with it, you could use javascript to count the number of characters and then use that to add to a score but it wouldn't be the built in score as those variables cannot be adjusted with triggers or javascript.

      Glad to see Phil has been helping you!

      I noticed that you're also working with my colleague Luiza, through a support case. It looks like she replied to your e-mail sharing additional insight into your concern. We can continue the conversation through your case to keep all information in one spot.
