Thanks for that impressive demo, Dominique. I expect that is just a teaser and you will make this new question type available in the future ?
Just for the record. If you are using H5P activities on Moodle, a Jigsaw Puzzle activity is available. Not yet on the officiel H5P hub but downloadable from Oliver Tacke's website at : https://www.olivertacke.de/labs/2022/01/17/you-would-jig-if-you-saw-that-puzzle/. I've tested it and it's quite easy to use.
Hello Joseph,
Thank you for your feedback. Yes, I will give the explanations a little later.
This is not a new question type, but a standard "Drag and drop onto image" question with some CSS styling to achieve transparency around the items image.
Also, The "Drag and drop onto image" question doesn't seem to like overlapping dropzones, so I fixed it with a javascript line.

Hello,
The puzzle industry is huge. Its worldwide turnover probably approaches that of the military or some other lucrative sector. The competition seems to be fierce and there are copyrights everywhere even just for the patterns of the jigsaw pieces. So I turn to a safer sector, that of the map of Canada.
Overlapping drop zones within a group are a problem, but you can get around it by putting the images in different groups, with non-overlapping drop zones within each group. Related issues with images transparency have been fixed.
Standard 'Drag and drop onto image' with some css and javascript. Only the western provinces are shown in this example.
Hello Susan,
Part + part = whole: https://moodleformulas.org/course/view.php?id=123§ion=6
It won't work in the Moodle sandbox because the sandbox has only core questions. "Part + part = whole" uses the Formulas question which is not core, it's a third party question. Note that third party questions are as good as core questions.
It's easy to download an XML file, then upload it to your Moodle question bank and include it in any quiz. That's the simplest way to go about it. Of course, you need the Formulas question to be installed on your site (installation takes about two minutes).

My first try with it (I downloaded the Moodle .xml file and previewed it) was frustrating -- I could NOT get the last piece to stick! So I made a video to show what a new user would experience and ... this time it did... https://resourceroom.net/Sharestrats/dragDropPuzzleVid/drag%20drop%20butterfly%20puzzle.html
Hello Susan,
Thank you for your feedback.
Yes, I also noticed that the pieces don't stick well and you have to put them in exactly the right place for them to stick. This is definitely not the expected behaviour. I will look at this. In the meantime, take a look at this other nice puzzle where the pieces stick correctly: https://moodleformulas.org/course/view.php?id=65§ion=9 ↗.

Hello Susan and Shirley,
With a small modification of the question, we get a good behaviour when dropping items:
