Problem:
How do I show the answer of a previous multiple choice question on a future slide?
ie. How can I reference the response to a multiple choice?
ActivePresenter Version: V8
OS: Required. Windows
Hi,
There are 2 ways for you to do that, both are using variables as follows:
-
Show the result: either True or False
Step 1: Create a True/False variable (Home tab > Variables > Add a True/False variable, name it “result” and set its Default Value to be True)
Step 2: Assign this value to the On Correct/ On Incorrect events of the question.
Step 3: Add a shape/ text caption in a new slide and add a reference to it. (Double click the shape > Home tab > Reference > Insert “result” variable). For each question, you can type the question name to the shape like Question 1, Question 2, then add its corresponding reference. -
Show the response: one of four choices.
Step 1: Create a Text variable (Home tab > Variables > Add a Text variable, name it “result_value”).
Step 2: Add events-actions and assign this variable to the On Check event of 4 options.
Step 3: Add a shape/ text caption in a new slide and add a reference to it. (Double click the shape > Home tab > Reference > Insert “result_value” variable). For each question, you can type the question name to the shape like Question 1, Question 2, then add its corresponding reference.

I think the 2nd way is better in your case. Below is a sample project that I created for your reference.
