In the Drag and Drop onto Image on Text question type, there are blanks on the form field sets for Drop elements to specify "Text". The value and stored and retrieved properly, but I can not find that it is used. Presumably, this should appear as a Label above the drop zone, but it is not.

Is this a feature that was present in OU type, but not in core, or is it a bug?

For this question type, it you can either use the Draggable item option or the Text option.
The functionality is one or the other, but not both.
Kind Regards

Thanks Shirley, but I am referring to the drop zone not the drag option. That one makes sense.

Think about accessibility. It does label the drop zone, but only for screen-readers.

I do not think this is an accessibility issue although it may cause confusion to questions authors. Adding a tag to the drop zone should improve accessibility in some cases (in others it could just gives a hint). One might add text to background image to same effect, but that would be less accessible.

Displaying the text would be the equivalent of a drag and drop match image to text question. The example that I was working on is from H5P demo, if you want to see the objectivehttps://h5p.org/question-set second question in set.
