I used the X of Y template to ask students to translate from a foreign language to English, allowing more than one correct answer. Here is an example. The Arabic sentence that means I did not live in Cairo: لم أعيش في القاهرة I allowed both "I didn't live in Cairo' and I did not live in Cairo" I did not choose to let the student see the possible answers. I wanted the student to type in the English translation. But the English sentences pop up as soon as you click on the input box. I deleted the file and emptied the trash. But If I create another new unrelated X of Y exercise those Cairo sentences appear on the screen. I have rebooted the computer. It doesn't help. Cairo endures. Any suggestions?
Thank you

What happens if you use another browser? It seems like some sort of caching and that your computer shows the answers you (only you, others do not see that) typed in before. Could that be the problem?

From your description I wonder if this is caused by the browser autofill setting which is remembering your choices (possibly when testing it out?), so would be unique to you (and not display to your students when they try it). If you need to clear the autofill (in case you're demonstrating the activity to a class for example), you can turn off autofill and refresh your browser cache. This web page has some instructions: support.reallysimplesystems.com/disable-autofill/

That worked! Many thanks.
Question: Is it possible to apply font styling to the marked words that are draggable?

You can add the Styles option from the Optional Properties panel and add css styling for the class called .input-answer
Example:

.input-answer {font-weight:900;}
