• Please help with conditional actions showing the PlayBar

  I tried to set up a tip action that will not allow users to move forward until they have clicked on the 3 themes I want to see again them.  I assigned variables, follow the tutorials and do everything now.  Please help how I my Advanced actions set upwards... everything shows and hides all work so I have to assume that the assignment of variable works as well.  I used numbers initially and changed my value of the variable of "dude" just to make sure I was not missing something.

  

  Here's the aciton condtional which is performed after the entry of the slide

  

  All logic seems in tact for me however I click on each of my boxes and all conditions must be true, but will not display game bar...

  Note: I also tried to show a next button and just show the things randomly with the same logic and it just will not work... What am I doing wrong?

  Something escapes me in your question: How do trigger you the conditional action? I suspect that he is never executed, but may be wrong of course.

  I created a small example to check: slide contains 3 buttons that trigger an action condtional with two decisions. The first decision is a simulated standard measure (condition 1 = 1 is always correct) assigns the value 1 to the variable corresponding user and displays a caption text, that was initially hidden. This is a screenshot of this first decision Stand for the first Bt_One action to be triggered by the first button:

  

  The second decision Check is the action of condtional real, very similar to yours. This will be done after the first decision:

  

  Create a duplicate of this action for the other two buttons, you only have to edit the first decision where the user variable needs to be changed.

  In my example, when you click the last button (regardless of the sequence) all the text captions should have been disclosed (I na not hide others, but you can do the same of course) and the second decision check will result in a positive response, so the playback bar appears immediately.

• Problem of numerical comparison conditional Action

  I read the long blog of Rod Ward on conditional actions in Captivate, which seems to tell me if I have a user with a numeric variable and I'm comparing it with a literal value of-1 to see if they are equal, it should work fine because, as Rod, says "what is happening under the hood is that strings are first converted to digital before be assessed values.  However, it clearly doesn't.  That's what I have for the IF condition: VariableName is equal to-1.  The value of the variable declared in the Console (via a call to cpAPIInterface.getVariableValue ()) is - 1.  And yet the conditional action performs the ELSE action instead of the action of the YEW, as if he thinks that the variable, the value is - 1 is NOT equal to-1.  Captivate is certainly not lame that it can't handle the sign less on the - 1!  Anyone has an idea why it wouldn't work?

  I was waiting a bit to see if any of the other advanced/prolific contributors would be consistent with an opinion opposite to one Lilybiri expressed, but no one has.  I appreciate the offer of Lilybiri for help .  For awhile, I thought his assertion that Captivate couldn't handle

  If varname is equal to-1

  correctly.  I created a test case very simple to try to confirm, one who had nothing else going on at all to blur the.  I was surprised when it worked very well comparing a variable with-1.  Then I noticed other places in our advancement of existing shares that already rely on it working properly, and they worked as expected.  So I was banging my head against it to try to understand the real reason for a few hours it did not work and then I discovered there are TWO assets, click boxes on this slide, which enabled the AA I had been struggling with and another who had not changed but should be doing the same action as the ELSE the other action.  So basically, I discovered it wasn't a problem with the check against-1, such that it was originally, but execution of the evil AA.

  In addition, if Rod blog comment is correct ("what's happening under the hood is that strings are first converted into digital values before being evaluated"), it SHOULD work perfectly to compare negative numbers.  And it looks good now.

• Creating conditional actions based on the results of the quiz

  I have a quiz at the end of my captivate file and I try to get to show different based on images if you have passed the quiz, or if you failed. For example if you pass, I want to show an image of the tick, and if you do not have an image of the cross, on the results slide.

  I tried to create this by implementing a conditional action. I put the two images on the slide and they hid. Then I have a conditional action value:

  IF
  cpQuizInfoPointsscored greater than or equal to 70

  ACTION

  See the Image_tick

  ON THE OTHER

  See the Image_cross

  When I play the quiz or image shows that I have success or failure (the quiz is set to a 70% pass - there are 10 questions, and all are worth 10 points)
  I am new to Captivate so that any help would be appreciated!
  Thank you

  Each action must be triggered by 'something', which is an event. You must attach to an event, I suspect that the event on enter score slide is one that suits. Select the slide of score, look in the properties panel, tab Actions, perform actions on enter, choose the action.

  In addition, there is a difference between the system variable cpQuizInfoPointsscored and cpInfoPercentage. Personally, I would use the simpler cpQuizInfoPassFail:

  IF cpQuizInfoPassFail is equal to 1

  See the tick

  On the other

  See the cross

• Advanced conditional action does not work when I add the second condition

  I use CP 8. I can't understand why I'm running on this problem. I have a series of If-Then conditional actions, but I am running into problems. I narrowed down it to this problem.

  It is a simple check box that must show either the box or not.

  

  As long as I have only one condition, it works fine. As soon as I add the second condition, it stops working.

  

  Any suggestions? I appreciate the help!

  Rick and I tried to explain that a conditional action is always executed completely. This is the reason that the second decision has been reset what had been done in the first in your first question. I have a lot of articles on my blog where I point out that bad sequence in the decision (or) is causing most of the problems with conditional advanced (shared) actions.

• Hide or display based on time or conditional action button

  Hello

  I wanted to see if anyone might have some insight on the best approach. In my Captivate program (version 7), I have a next button on each screen. Using Javascript and .NET, the variables are passed in the program.

  There are two scenarios when a user opens a session in the program I want to accomplish.

  (1) If you are a new user or if you have not seen a particular screen again, hide the btn 'Next' until the slide duration reaches a specific time (for example 60 seconds on a slide that's 63 seconds of time, given that the next button will stop the slide to move to the next slide) is over.

  (2) If you are a user existing, or that you have already seen a screen, display the next btn.

  I fight with the best approach. Any help would be appreciated!

  Thanks for your help!

  Ruth

  You cannot move a button on the timeline on the duration. I would therefore suggest to have two following buttons:

  Bt_Next1 for new users, with his script at the end of the slide

  Bt_Next2 for existing user.

  If you have access to the value of the variable v_lastmod an advanced conditional action on enter the slide might do the trick:

  IF v_lastmod is equal to or greater than 1

  See the Bt_Next2

  ON THE OTHER

  See the Bt_Next1

• Several conditional Actions required to Slide "on entry.

  I have a Captivate 7 file with a main Menu that contains 5 buttons that take users through 5 submenus. There are buttons that launch other project files on each submenu.

  On the submenus when a user performs a project file, the file closes and a variable puts a check mark on the top of the key to display this project is completed. Once a user makes all projects on a submenu, the button in the main Menu which directs user to the submenu then will have a tick on the top of the key to show the submenu is complete.

  This works well with many variables; standard actions on the buttons and a conditional action advanced on the "on entrance" for the slide.

  Question I have is that on each slide to make a Visual indicator that indicates the total percentage of full user (6 built images showing 0,20,40,60,80 & amp; 100). I created a conditional action that shows a relevant picture but my question is how to integrate only next to entry. Have you thought to use on output to show the image correctly on each slide, so that when the user visits a slide good picture - unfortunately it does not work.  Someone at - it ideas? Is it possible to drag on entry perform two separate conditional actions?

  Any great fully received help!

  You can put decisions as much as you want in a conditional to the progress of the actions. How much time do you have for now? All the statements in any fast action are always evaluated, which is not always the case in conditions in a programming language. Sequence is of course very important, both in the statements and decisions.

• Help with Action Adv & text entry

  Hello, can someone help me create the measures following advanced (I think that's what I need).

  When a learner types 'A' in a text input field, the 'excellent' word appears (on the next page in a summary text box)

  When a learner tape 'B' in a text input field, the word "property" is displayed (on the next page in a summary text box)

  When the letters 'C' 'd', or 'F' is typed in a text entry field nothing shows up. "

  Thanks in advance!

  Hello

  Do not validate the TEB, but you will need to include a conditional action advanced as action of success. I don't know if you also want to ensure that there is an entry? And what must happen even when another character was typed? I would like to create a custom rather than generic user variable attached to the ETB (easier to understand action): v_answer. And for this example I expect a click on the button submit, or use the shortcut entry (default for TEB). This will be the event triggering the advanced action

  On the next page, create two text containers (you don't tell what version? I say text container because you can use both a legend or a form) with the text you want to appear and hide them (in the properties panel). I have them tagged the txt_Excel and txt_Good.

  Your conditional action needs two decisions:

  First great decision

  IF v_answer is equal to A

  Go to the next slide

  See the txt_Excel

  Second good decision

  IF v_answer is equal to B

  Go to the next slide

  See the txt_Good

  ON THE OTHER

  Go to the next slide

• Variable/conditional Actions and a table of contents slide

  The Adobe eLearning Summit, I sat in class Advanced Action Joe and Lily, and I saw how we could add a checkmark (or indicator) to a table of contents slide.  I should take better notes, because I'm working on it and not get anywhere.  My logic may be simple.  So here's what I did.

  (1) I have created a user for Chapter 1 (v_chap1) variable and set it to 0.

  (2) on the 3 blades that make up chapter 1, I have an exit Action on where v_chap1 is incremented by 1.

  (3) on the Table of content slide, I have a hidden check box (named: check mark).

  (4) the box is controlled by a conditional action where if v_chap1 = 3, then show the check mark.

  Of course, it did not work.  I place the variable in a text on the blade of my OCD caption, to see if he could increase and it is not, it remains at 0.  So basically I'm stuck at step 2.

  Any help would be appreciated.  I'm on: v6.0.1.204

  It's crazy to get me to explain as well advanced and shared actions within an hour. Have a 6 hour workshop ready where this kind of use case is one of the subjects, but never have the opportunity to do so. Too bad...

  Begin to wonder if online training would attract enough participants? Suppose not.

  Preparation of a book of recipes for advanced actions, and this will certainly be one of these use cases. Problem is not the content but the format of the book and distribution, this is where I'm totally stuck.

  I have this model TOC ready for 6 and 7, but I offer it for free any more as I did for CP5 and 5.5.

  Take a look on: http://blog.lilybiri.com/template-for-reusing-script

  And my blog has a lot of use cases.

  Some tips: never use an action on the release, see: http://blog.lilybiri.com/events-and-advanced-actions

• Setting a conditional Action for pre-test questions: skip content slides

  OK boys and girls, let's see if this is even possible in a course of SCO, or if this solution multi-SCO (which means I'm toast, because we do not have the multi-SCO aggregator)?

  I want to implement a prescriptive pre-test. In my ideal world, the answers to each individual question would either enable or disable the content related to the question slides. If the user passes the pre-test, they might opt to skip the prescriptive stuff and complete the course. If the user fails the pre-test, they should consult the active content.

  Is it still possible in a unique world of SCO?

  Justenuf

  Will try to explain how I would try to handle this use case, but I didn't try it!

  • For the first condition, you already have a system variable which can be used in conditional actions to check if the user has passed the pre-test. If you use ordinary question slides, cpQuizInfoPassFail will be set to 1 if it is adopted, the value 0 as var is full only after the last slide in the question. If you use slides before the test, you will need to create a variable user, which you can fill with a tip action, based on the value of cpQuizIntoPretestPointsscored or cpQuizInfoPretestScorePercentage.
  • To follow the questions they did correctly, you must create a variable user for each slide of the issue, default = 0. Based on the system variable cpQuizInfoLastSlidePointScored, which is completed after each slide of the question, you can switch the variable user of the slide of the previous to 1 question if this sys var is greater than 0. This can be done by an action at the entrance to each slide of the question. You will need such action on enter also immediately after the last question slide (maybe on a blade of results, where you can also put the appropriate button to switch the content slides, or offer the possibility to go back).
  • For each slide content you will need another (conditionala tip enter action. Condtion will check the value of cpQuizInfoPassFail (or the equivalent for the slides before the test) AND the value of the var related to this question slide. If both are positive, ignore the slide (go to the next slide), if not, just stay on the slide. That action will be the same for all the slides in content related to a question. But another question, you will need a duplicate, because another user variable will be there. If you use CP7, this is an excellent example for joint actions.

  Hope this helps a bit, sorry that I am so busy.

• I can't do a conditional action with several decisions work

  I use 6 Captivate:

  Here is an example:

  The slide contains 2 objects - one is a button and the other is a graphic, seller.

  Entering the slide, a variable, v_button, is set to 0, and seller is hidden.

  I enclose a conditional action for the button to allow the user to click several times to show or hide the image.

  This conditional action works:

  IF:

  v_button is equal to 0

  ACTIONS:

  Show vendor

  Assign the v_button with 1

  ANOTHER THING:

  Hide the seller

  Assign the v_button with 0

  -------------------------------------------------------------

  This conditional action does not work:

  Decision 1:

  IF:

  v_button is equal to 0

  ACTIONS:

  Show vendor

  Assign the v_button with 1

  Decision 2:

  IF:

  v_button is equal to 1

  ACTIONS:

  Hide the seller

  Assign the v_button with 0

  What I am doing wrong?  I need to use many decisions because my real case requires 3 decisions.

  Thank you very much for your advice.  Never, I realized that I could layer smart buttons.  With your help, I solved the problem:

  I created 4 smart buttons, with the 2 green smart buttons on top 2 Brown buttons and attached a standard action to each of them:

  Button1On: (related to the Brown button 1)

  Hide

  Show

  Audio triggered stop

  Play the Audio

  Button1Off: (attached to the green button 1)

  Hide

  Audio triggered stop

  Button2On: (related to the Brown button 2)

  Hide

  Show

  Audio triggered stop

  Play the Audio

  Button2Off: (attached to the green button 2)

  Hide

  Audio triggered stop

• Captivate 9 just all my conditional actions converted to standard actions

  This isn't a problem converting 8 Captivate. I spent several hours this morning, creating conditional actions and by assigning them to the learning map that I create in Captivate 9. I save the file several times along the way and also at the end.

  Then, I went to lunch and attended a meeting. When I got home and has reopened the case in order to duplicate and modify the existing conditional actions, I found that they were converted to standard actions, and my settings of variables and expressions had been dropped.

  I have not a screenshot of what it is supposed to look like - these are actions "and then" which were associated with the first condition. The second condition and all the "else" statements have been abandoned.

  I had to have this ready to present to my boss before the end of the day--and I would have, if I didn't all start again. And how do you know if that this never happens again?  ARGH!

  SOMEONE HAS THAT HAPPEN, AND IS THERE A SOLUTION?

  

  No, they have not installed the patch for 9.0.1.320 nor the 9.0.0.230 fix. You are always on the first version that had this bug, resolved by a hotfix released shortly after the first version. This patch is now included in the patch you need to install as soon as POSSIBLE.

• What are the variables system will report to the LMS for the completion of the course, when there is a test (developed with conditional actions manually).

  I developed a course where the learner must pass the test to complete the course in LMS.

  I developed a quiz (quiz developed using conditional actions) manual.

  Now I want my course should show in LMS completion status, only after the learner either in quiz.

  How do my report course to the LMS of completion criteria?
