Dear Admin.

Till the day before yesterday and the worksheets with Drag and drop worked correctly. But for the last two days all the answers are regarded wrong. I tried to redit all the elements in one WS, though they looked all right. I deleted them and made anew. Still they are all wrong.

Could the problem be solved?

I looked at your worksheet, and please make a "drag" element smaller to make it work. If the "drop" element is too small, the "drag" component will jump around trying to fit. This is where I found the issue: https://www.liveworksheets.com/w/en/english-second-language-esl/7101268
Like you did in your second worksheet, where it works without problem: https://www.liveworksheets.com/w/en/english-second-language-esl/7089090
Good work with your worksheets! Thanks for being part of the community!

Hello, I tried reviewing your worksheet and was able to view right and wrong answers. I did notice that as @Greg pointed out, both the size and position of the drag and drop elements are important. If the boxes are not similar size, it will not work as intended. Also it's important to size and position the drag element over the area that you'd like to cut out. I noticed that the drag element for "downpour" was too high, so the bottom of the word was getting cut off. I repositioned it to be a little lower, and it looks good! Please try to adjust the size and position of these elements to make them fit better.

The problem is not in size. It worked ok for years. Just click check my answer. And it shows it's wrong. And it worked when I wrote the post yesterday. I didn't change anything when it showed RIGHT. and now it's wrong again. And the same thing happens in all the WSs.

Well, the problem may seem different. I usually used chrome based yandex browser and it was the best that worked. Today, after your post, when the problem repeated again I tried firefox and everything worked correctly. The same thing - it works right in Edge. Perhaps, I'll have to change the browser used and explain it to the students. I hope, it will help.
