Quiz variable not followed responses from text box

Hi all

I'm having a problem for the Captivate Quiz variable to track the right answers in a text box. I am using Captivate 5 and try to do a quiz where someone will enter data that will be validated and branch out of their responses. I've implemented several text boxes, turned on the validation, check the "Include in Quiz" and add it to the boxes of responses total and report. See the picture below:

I try to the branch with the help of a tip action that checks if the variable cpQuizInfoPointsscored and branches in function out of their score. But the variable still shows 0! (I put in place a text caption to display the variable I went for check.) Here's the weird part, I have the quiz results slide in the presentation, and IT shows precisely the results of the test boxes. But for some reason any Quiz Variable is not monitoring them! Any help?

Hello and welcome to the forum,

Your question, I know that you use CP5.0, correct? This "bug" has been fixed in Captivate 5.5. Has been one of the users who had insisted (in bug report) to have all system variables Quizzing updated after each question and not only once the quiz is completed, the score slide. now that you're bumping into this issue: the cpQuizInfoPointsscored score is tracked and must have the scores for text input areas or any other inventoried object (all appear in the Advanced Interaction Overview - F9) but only to the score slide.

I had a work around in CP5 (described somewhere in an article or a blog post), using the variable Quizzing which IS updated after each question: cpQuizInfoLastSlidePointScored.

If you want the functionality of CP5.5, you will need to follow the final score in a variable user in advanced actions. It of not really that hard, since you're already using advanced actions, step by step

  • Create a variable user v_currentscore
  • upon entering each slide of the question have this statement executed (if you do not already have a tip for this event Enter action, and it is the only statement, better add continue as second statement)
    • Expression v_currentscore = v_currentscore + cpQuizInfoLastSlidePointScored
  • Now you can use this variable user for your check instead of cpQuizInfoPointsscored, you understand that it is only updated on the slide after the slide where the question is answered? Let me know if there is a problem

  • Highlight the area of text disappearing when a variable is used in this text box

    Dear all

    I spent ages setting up a quiz in Captivate 8 allows partial scoring on several slides and then provides feedback to the accepting of a quiz on correct/incorrect responses.  Because the partial scoring options from Captivate are so limited, I had to make abundant use of the advanced Actions number of (a) the number of correct answers (assigned to a variable called "c1") and then (b) if some but not all the answers are correct, display a text box stating the number of correct answers.  The text in the text box is simply "You got $$ c1$ $ right." and results in the text box saying 'You're right' 2 If c1 is 2.

    However, for some reason any highlighting in the text box turns off if I put a variable in there.  For example, if the text box has the normal orange highlight given to partially correct captions, this nail does not appear if I include the variable, but it does not appear if I simply say "Partially correct.".  Does anyone know how I can fix this you problem?  I have searched previous questions on this site and on the internet but couldn't find anything.  I also tried to clear the cache of Captivate on my computer, but it does not help this problem.

  • Why my links do not work in the text box next to the e-mail in Outlook?

    I created an email template in Eloqua, which is a two-column layout. The text box on the left has links that work very well. The text box on the right has links that do not work. This only occurs in Outlook. If I find the email in an another e-mail client, all right. What could be wrong causing the links is not working?

    If another person has ever run into this and found a solution, please let me know. I'm pulling my hair out!

    I called support this morning and all I had to do was move the text box on the right side to the top of a few pixels and now everything works fine. I guess when the two tables are the same height, Outlook rides them and cannot process the links properly. I like it when it's an easy solution!

  • Captivate 9 - mailto: links appear not to if the text box contains the variable (HTML 5)

    Hello

    If I create a link mailto: link using text that contains a variable, it is not displayed in the output HTML 5. The text is there, and the link works, it is not visible.

    Here is the slide in Captivate:

    Image 023.png

    If the slide is out 8 lines - 2 of each set of 4 should be links. The first are web links, the second are mailto: links.

    The result in a browser is:

    Image 024.png

    As you can see the link with the variable email is not displayed. Did the same thing on the iPad:

    File 21-10-2015, 11 56 37.png

    The link is there however, you can click in the box, it takes in the browser (or typing on the ipad) and a new email is created.


    Check if the source says:

    Anyone get this problem or knows how to fix?


    I think I must be missing something obvious? For any help or suggestions appreciated.


    It is a new installation of Captivate 9 - no preferences changed or the custom template used. Just a new project.

    Is quick question, possible to enter the quiz questions in a text scrolling Interaction?  Thanks for your time.

    I don't think it's possible, because the scrolling text is an Interaction, and you have almost no control over it. Certainly not the questions by default, which is totally excluded.

  • Wireless connection failed because windows did not receive response from the access point or wireless router

    Monday Nite I downloaded a driver site HTC syn my Android Hero phone. After extracting and installing the driver in the zip file, I tried to sync with my phone which was hook up my laptop. It did not work. Interrupt the synchronization process and I tried to check my email from outlook. Found it cannot send and receive mail. Open my browser and found that it disconnected. And so, using the LAN cable, fortunately, it worked. So I wonder what is happening to my function wireless on my laptop?

    Can someone tell me what I need to do? Thank you very much.

    Hello

    Search for updated drivers and reinstall if no later by using the procedure below.

    Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
    version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
    Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version. (The

  • Y at - it plug-ins that will show you the missing text that could not be mounted in the created text box?

    Hello

    I often work with long pieces of text which is too long to be mounted within a predetermined text box.

    I want to know how much of the text does not appear inside my text box without having to change the size of the text box. Is it possible to do this? Perhaps via the plug-in?

    If there is more text that take place inside a text box object, the output port of the object will be displayed as a red + sign. Select the object with the selection tool. Click on the red + and the pointer turns into an icon "for the text". Click and drag on an empty space on the artboard, creating a new text object containing the text to overflow. It may be necessary to resize the new text object to display all the remaining text.

  • Special characters in text boxes Acrobat XI (Windows)

    I use Acrobat Pro XI for Windows. At my work we have some documents that we mark upwards using the features of the text box and not insert it text. In the older version of Acrobat I used until this year (sorry - I know not what version), it was easy to insert special characters such as accented letters, the daggers to announce notes, etc., in the text boxes. I could go to the Edit drop-down list and there was a "special character" field I could call, and from there, I would choose punctuation, Greek letters, various and several other choices. It couldn't be simpler. But I can't find a way to add special characters to the text boxes in Acrobat XI. Just to be clear, I'm not talking to modify the text in the original document. I want to talk about adding a text box and then using special characters in the text I'm typing in the box. I was able to type special characters in a Word doc and then copy / paste them in my text box in Acrobat, but it takes a long time and requires sometimes I mess with the font of the text box. Any help with this will be sincerely appreciated.

    Special characters is a thing of Mac not a thing of Acrobat. So you have it on the PC.

    Use the character map application on the PC. (Accessories - System Tools).

  • Shrinking text boxes?

    I am trying to create text in expansion boxes, but if the text does not have the entire text box, is there way to have the text box reduced to adjust to what has been typed.  I have the shrink to fit (height) is turned on, but it does not work.  I forgot something.  Thanks for any help you can give.

    Hi Catherine,

    You want to reduce the TextField either horizontally or vertically? If horizontally, then try the following.

    Click the Expand to fit the box under width.

    In the case of the output of the object TextField write the following script.

    this.maxW = "";

  • Recover/place current date-time in the text box

    Hello, I wonder if someone has experimented with dynamically retrieve the current computer date/time and place this information in a text box? Looks like a simple enough action, but I can't find any documentation related this topic. I suspect that this method of appeal and retrieval behavior could serve as unexpectedly in many situations for many people!

    -joel

    You don't need a script to do this.  In the Type menu, there is a submenu "text... Variables. ».  This will set text variables and store them in text boxes.  There is a predefined variable called "Release Date", which will display the date current (MM/DD/YY) when a PDF file is output.  If you want to display the time, under "text... Variables. ', go to 'Define'... ", and you can define your own.  Under 'Type', select the release date and add any desired variable data.  The format of date and time should look like this:

    HH: mm: MM/DD/YY

    I found that only update text Variables in the display very consistantly, but I just tested it, and whatever the value is, the PDF output has time and date.

    If you want to control the text with javaScript variables, see the classes of TextVariableInstance (s) and TextVariable (s).

    As a side note, the text variables work very well if you want the date and time, page, etc., but I really wish they would add a little more features, especially with things like name of separation, color profile, and PDF output profile.  It would be a huge timesaver that all of this type of metadata inserted easily.
