• The title of the TOC for the random question slides

  I want to create a quiz that randomly pulls a pool of questions.  I think I know how to do that (rightly), but when I do, the table of contents is only show (title "Slide") the name/title of the question slide to chance itself, which is not really give any useful information.  I wonder if there is a way to show rather the title of the question which is selected (and present) of the random question slide.  This, in my opinion, would be much more useful to users taking the quiz.  Is there a known way to get there?  Thank you!

  

  Project files cannot be attached to these messages in the forum.

  Lilybiri has already answered your question.  The table of contents only shows the name of the random Question slide and can't give you the name of the slide of the random quiz question slide that is picked up from the Question pool when running dynamically.

  Essentially the Random Question slide is just a placeholder.

  However, I think that your idea of being able to have the selected slide display its name in the table of contents if you wish has some merit.  Then I suggest that you connect to an enhancement with Adobe for this request.  You never know...

• I can't put the line spacing of the blank question slide below pt 2.2

  Whenever I have create a fill-in-the-blank question slide in Adobe Captivate, the line spacing of the text box to fill-in-the-white past by 1 point (which is what is said in the slides model) to 2.2 pt. I can say that changes, because the sign more appears next to the name of the style in the Properties tab. I can not change the line spacing to below 2.2pt, but I can do the larger line spacing. I want to set the line spacing to 1.25pt, but it won't let me! If someone could tell me what happens, or could give me a solution, it would be great!

  (I use Adobe Captivate 8)

  Thank you!

  It isn't really pt, do not know why they added it's unity, in EM. I was informed by the team because they need more space for the drop-down lists. Minimum space is 2.2em. Sorry, only the recommendation is to replace the default FIB a custom in which you are using BER or the Interaction of scrolling text for whites.

• Fill in the blank question slide

  I use Adobe Captivate 5.5 for Mac, my fill in the blank question slides do not work.  Show the answer and the box for the answer is so small that either you do not see what you type or well you can not even your inside slider to type at all.

  Captivate 5 has been rewritten from scratch, and indeed some questions are not upgraded to good. Really believe that the best way to solve this problem is to recreate those annoying question slides. This is the reason why I asked for your workflow because I find the fill-in-the-Blank questions behaves much better in 5.5 than in earlier versions.

• Next and submit buttons - question slides

  Hi all

  I see some problems using with the following buttons on question slides provided with Adobe Captivate 6.0, and send it.

  	Desired behavior	Actual behavior (out of the Box)
  Entering the slide	(Behavior at the entrance of the cylinder head is OK)

  • Next button is disabled (grayed out)
  • Introduce the button is enabled
  • "Back" button is disabled

  (The same as the desired behavior)

  • Next button is disabled (grayed out)

  • Next button is active
  • Introduce the button is disabled (grayed out)
  • "Back" button is enabled
  • The user should click on 'Next' to continue, or click 'Back' to return to the previous slide.
  • Next button is disabled (greyed out) [ISSUE 1]
  • Submit button is activated (standard color) [issue 2]
  • "Back" button is enabled
  • The user must "click anywhere" to move forward (full page of hand cursorover). This means, if the user tries to click on return they will go to the Next is not the previous slide
  . [Issue 3]On revisiting a question slide (screening)
  • Next button is enabled
  • Introduce the button is disabled (grayed) or invisible
  • "Back" button is enabled

  • The user should click on 'Next' to continue, or click 'Back' to return to the previous slide.
  • The 'back button ' on Question 1 is activated and directs the user to the previous content that is confused page. [issue 5]

  Issues related to the:

  1. Are there settings that are the origin of this undesirable behaviour?
  2. Or, is it possible to bypass them? It seems a lot of work to have to rebuild the behavior of quiz!
     1. Problem 1: I could create a custom button 'Next', but I can't see any sort of hook in the submission process to trigger it to be enabled / disabled.
     2. Issues 2 and 4: I could create a custom of 'Submit' button but I don't see what measures to trigger to submit the quiz question.
     3. Problem 3: I do not see boxes click to remove or settings to change, to stop the behavior "click anywhere.
     4. Problem 5: I worked around this by creating my own back for Question 1 only button and hide when they review the quiz.

  Any suggestion would be great!

  Thank you

  Hi Lilybiri

  Thanks for the links to your blog, as always very useful!

  I understand the hesitation when seeing convoluted questions on this forum, but I encourage you and others to try to remedy. Otherwise, the forum is pretty useless if it only meets the "simple" questions I tried to unzip the problem so that the expected and actual results were clear.

  I have now overcome problems 1, 2, 3 and 4 as follows:

  • Make the button submit transparent and placed a SmartShape resembling to the button send behind it.
  • Removed the success message, so that the action on the success is called immediately by clicking on Submit
  • Call a tip for the successful event Action. This action:
    • Displays the revision message (success)
    • Hide the submit button
    • Jumps to the next slide and then return to the current slide (this ensures that the buttons next and previous are enabled correctly)
    • Calls a Javascript function to pause the slide.
  • Apply the same to all my slides in question... * sigh *.

  I had already worked around 5 problem according to my original post.

  Again, I want to express some frustration that there are so many workarounds to get training to watch 100%. For example, in one of your tutorials there is a transparent button and once I knew how the workaround has been applied, I put my mouse over it the space where the button was and saw the hand icon. While if you think that users don't notice, I assure you that when the courses are distributed to a few hundred people these things don't go unnoticed! The effort to build workarounds is worsened by having restrictions on question slides that do not apply to other slides, which for example not being able to add a button and having to use a SmartShape (which does not reuse the button styles), etc. That means trying several solutions workaround until you can find one where all the workaround steps are feasible and you can get a perfect result.

  In any case, I'll mark this message as answered and call it a day (I have another question about styling SmartShapes used as buttons but post it separately) =)

  Thank you

  Sarah.

  

• Save the button Question

  Hi guys

  I have a form with text for a person fields first name and last name.

  I would like to add a button "save under" for the form, in which the default document to the savings under the formula:

  "Last_Name, First_Name".

  
  I have attached the form.

  Thank you

  The only way to have the file saved under a different name must have the user to enter in a file dialog box.

  You are not allowed to replace the name of a file saved with your own without knowledge of th... eusers, it appears a security risk.

• You can delete the corresponding lines of the quiz question slide?

  I have two slides corresponding quiz with eight corresponding items on each slide. The user selects the corresponding answers, the lines drawn by the question to answer Captivate gets really annoying. At the time that all eight matches are completed, the slide is very busy with crossing lines.

  Is there a way to disable this feature layout of Captivate? I would have preferred that the lines appear not at all.

  Thanks for any help or suggestion, you can provide!

  If you have Captivate 6.1 then you can use the Drag and Drop Wizard corresponding custom interactive slides and you will not the lines in the output and you can also include the slide in the quiz and allow Drag and Drop properties declaration.

  Thank you

• Captivate 7 - hide / disable the button 'next' until the question is answered

  We try to make mandatory to answer a question before moving on to the next slide.

  Ideally, we want to hide / remove the following navigation button until the answer to the question.

  Any help would be appreciated

  P.S. I have check the Adobe forums and he suggested to put the next button under the clear key - that works... but not if you go to the slide - you can then go forward

  Thank you very much

  Al

  You found my suggestion to the next button, which is designed as a "Skip" button during Quiz, under the Clear button, which also has the advantage that it can be a confusion between the transmission and the next button indeed and it was certainly also mentioned that it is supposed to not allow movement back and hide the playback bar in this case.

  http://blog.lilybiri.com/question-question-slides-in-Captivate

  The buttons on question slides cannot be controlled as the other buttons. They are integrated into the question slide. If you want total control, you must create question slides personalized (lots of work).

  Another approach with the default question slides is to check the required "Answer All" option in Quiz preferences, settings. Or you can use submit all, allowing movement to the rear and a warning appears if all the questions are answered, but you alow to present even in this case.

  And you could try, if you feel uncomfortable with stocks advanced, to create a conditional action on enter for each slide, which displays a form button that will be back next movement button...

• Craigslist 'Reply' and the buttons 'Add images' does not

  Until a few weeks ago, I used Firefox with no problem when browsing and posting Craigslist ads. Recently, the 'Reply' button in the messages does not at all. Nothing happens when I click it. When I write ads, the button 'Add images' does not save when I click it. I had to go back using Internet Explorer when using Craigslist. Help, please! (If it helps, I had to post this question in Internet Explorer, as the button "Question" on the page does not work in Firefox).

• How to get an overview of the effects of the question slide?

  Captivate 5
  Win XPSP3

  
  Problem: how to have an overview of the effects (such as drop shadow) applied to the objects (jpg) on a question slide.

  Situation: Quiz to tell 5 random questions drawn from a pool of 50 questions multiple choice.

  
  Questions pool Panel:
  I'm building the Quizzing question slides workspace.
  I can view the slide and add questions and answers + jpg images that may be necessary.

  If I want to add a shadow to an image, I select the object (img) and place you in the effect controls panel.
  I add a drop shadow and can make adjustments, BUT the effect is not visible on the slide.

  
  The Live Preview button is grayed out and unavailable.

  
  Overview of the toolbar options are...
  F3 slide... Does not show the effect.
  F4 project... would take too long AND would be not safe to view the slide at which I had added the image effect.
  F12 browser... shows the entire project with 5 random questions but not necessarily the specific slide.

  Am I on the Filmstip Panel:
  There are several options preview...
  F8 this slide... If I select a blank Question slide at random, it shoots a question of the pool of 50, but not necessarily that I'm working on.
  F10 then 5 slides... same problem as F8

  Unacceptable workaround solution:
  I can create another pool 'test', containing one question.
  Copy slides edited to "test the pool and the preview with F8 or F10.
  A lot of extra work...

  Then the effect works and would weigh on the finished quiz... BUT... I can't (without a lot of P'ing on) Preview and adjust effects applied to a question slide.

  Someone at - it ideas?

  Concerning

  Frank

  If you want to test the effects on a particular slide of your pool of the Question, and you don't want to publish all slides to see it, just click with the right button on the slide in the question pool and select move Question to > the project main.

  Then, you will be able to preview the effects as with any other slide.  When you know that the slide is over, just get him back in the Question pool.

• Text on the button changes to the overview

  I copied a button with Slide text to B slide and change the text of the button on slide B.

  After the publication, if I move the cursor over the Slide b button, it changes the original text (from the slide A button).

  Is there a way to avoid this? This behavior is not normal at all.

  -Peter

  In fact, it can be quite normal.

  Check the display of the State of this button.  You can see that the State Over text should be changed to be in harmony with the Normal State, and what is your 'problem '.

• Back to questionnaire for the second time slide made the idle quiz

  I want to achieve: the user learns something, then it passes a test. When he answers correctly, he is taken back to the slide of learning to repeat the lesson and has a chance to take the quiz.

  It works fine until the user reaches the slide of questionnaire for the second time. The quiz is so inactive and may not choose an answer.

  I also noticed the same problem in the third example (about hospital) on this site: http://blogs.Adobe.com/Captivate/Adobe-Captivate-presenter-eLearning-Suite-examples .

  Is there anything that can be done to allow the user to return to the previously taken quiz and try again?

  Here is a very simple project that illustrates this problem: https://DL.dropbox.com/u/86167389/Untitled1.zip

  For what you explain, you need the functionality of conscious branch Captivate 6: it allows to navigate a user in a content slide when the answer was bad and go back to the same question slide.

• Insertion of buttons on Question slides

  Hi all

  I'm on Mac CP5. In my module, I Dove immediately the learner in a scenario. If they can do it, fine; If this isn't the case, I want to help to be available. My plan was to have buttons to image on the slide where they could see an example, or watch a working tool. I tried just to insert a button on the question slide so I could navigate to another screen to provide help and now I see that CP5 allows me to add a button (or other standard objects) to a question slide. I also tried to copy and paste a button to another slide and that does not work either.

  How can I insert these additional navigation buttons on a slide in question? I did the quiz on option in the preferences.

  Thank you

  Kevin

  Hello Kevin,

  If you are using the Question slides coming with Captivate, you can not insert interactive objects: buttons, click boxes, text entry boxes. It is also not possible to insert the rollover slidelets or Zoom areas. You can insert other standard objects.

  I think I'm repeating something I already told you: If you want to have total control, especially if there is no declaration required for an LMS, create your own question slides. Do you have the link you asked for more details on creating question slides?

  If you want to stay with the default Question slides, you can maybe try to join an advanced action in pass/fail options.

  Also be careful if you have a "Quiz", which means that if you Question slides: you can not navigate to a slide outside the scope of Quiz, which begins with the first slide where something is orchestrated (usually a Question slide) and ends with the score slide. The setting to 'Optional' for the quiz settings change at all.

• Sanitation in a course with several slides contained and question slides

  My goal is to build a course that consists of 20 ~ content slides (each has a small video conference), followed by several questions each to compose a great quiz, each answer is counted toward the degree.

  So my current configuration is as follows:

  • Each slide of the Conference is followed by question slides 1-3.
  • An attempt is allowed by each question.
  • All questions must be answered correctly before a user can move to the next slide content.
  • Each conference is preceded by another slide of content and has a button 'Next' with 'Back to the Quiz' on measures of success.
  • Failure to answer a question correctly, the user is redirected to the previous slide in conference at the Review Conference. Then the user is redirected to the slide in question failed (via a button 'Next') and the next attempt to answer the question.

  I understand the scenario of reclamation and was able to set up the first slide of the Conference, followed by 3 question slides, and everything works as I want. Button 'Next' on the slide of the Conference works properly depending on where the user came to the Conference slide of.

  However, when the user finally arrives at the next Conference slide, as soon as they click on the 'Next' button on this slide, they are brought back to the last slide in question answered: in my case, it's the third question slide after the first slide of the Conference. The loop closes just here.

  Basically, there is no way for the user to pass the second slide Conference.

  Why the button 'Next' on the second slide Conference not to go to the first slide of the following question?

  What I am doing wrong?

  Thank you.

  Captivate sanitation with failure - part 1 - blog of monkeylogic

  Captivate sanitation with failure part2 - monkeylogic blog

  Lilybiri, I think that the solution to my problems is very well explained in the posts above I found last night. With a few changes, I could get my course work just as I had originally planned.

  Here's what my structure/feature class now looks like in my test file:

  Title slide

  Video conference 1

  Questionnaire1 Questions (tested with 2 questions multiple choice, 3 possible answers to each)-back to the video conference 1 first incorrect answer; go to video conference 2 success OR the second incorrect answer.

  Video conference 2

  Questionnaire2 Questions (tested with 2 questions multiple choice, 3 possible answers to each)-back to the video conference 2 as soon as the first incorrect answer; go to video conference 3 success OR the second incorrect answer.

  Video conference 3

  .. and so on.

  The notation works, too!

  I'm actually very happy to have found a solution to what seemed to be an impossible feat. Thank you for your help, I appreciate the time you took to answer my questions. As a completely new Captivate user, I think that I learned a lot in the last week, thanks to your contribution, and that of many other generous people on the web.

  Thank you

• Re: Satellite A665 - 16K: touch the buttons and the question of the FN functions

  Hello

  I have a problem with the Satellite A665 - 16 k: press the buttons and FN functions. When I install pvat they stop working, but when I uninstall the pvat only some of them work.

  How to fix? Model mu has a keyboard backlight and mine has a problem?

  > When I install pvat they stop working, but when I uninstall the pvat only some of them work.
  The current situation of the article, but I would like to know what you've done in the past. As far as I know, and my own experience, FN keys can not stop working without any reason.
  Are you using the original OS from Toshiba that was preinstalled on your laptop (WIN7 64 BIT HOME PREMIUM)?

  Usually after installing fresh PVAT everything should work again. Akuma wrote install the version of the TOSHIBA Flash Cards 1.63.0.6C support utility but do it before installing PVAT.
  > Model mu has a keyboard backlight and mine has a problem?
  I m really confused that you don't know if your laptop has this keyboard or not. Have you checked laptop specification before you bought it?
  Please read the manuals for the user's document. You will find all the info on your laptop, on the use of hardware and software. Somehow, I think you don t know what you have before you.

  Anyway, the control button Z as akuma wrote. You can also change the settings of the keyboard backlight.
  Open Toshiba Assist > optimize > HWSetup. You can find it here.
