slide/advanced action does not

Hello

I am currently using Captivate 6 and I setup a project that has a timer on the question slide 1st and then I implemented a tip action so when then the timer stops it will jump to the slide results otherwise it will continue on the project.
Here is my Advanced action.

Untitled.jpg

The timer variable is v_time that I installed on time and created in the variables.

I put each slide (excluding the first slide of the question and the results slide) with the topic fast action on the entrance and exit of the slide.

It's used to work when I tested published in the web browser. I have a copy of one I published in January that works but now for some reason it does not work.

I think there is a problem with the action of jumping to drag, but I'm not 100% sure.

I tried to recreate a new project with the same tip action, but it still doesn't work.

I'm stuck and feel I'm wasting my time. I spent 3 days on this and I'm ripping my hair out.

Help, please!

Thanks in advance

Kim

Kim, what event you attach the advanced action? If you use the 'old' included with CP clock widget (exist also in previous versions), it has no events, will only change the value of the variable associated user. You have action by another event like a drag event (enter, leaving). You have only a message pops up when the time has elapsed, does not prevent the user to answer the question.

Second question: what version are you using? Associate you the variable v_time in the properties of the Widget? Did you type the exact "v_time" name, because there is a problem with the timer in 6.0.1 widget, which prevents the seizure of some characters. Maybe it's the issue that you are facing now. You must be sure that the correct name is linked and that the variable exists. Lastly but not least, the values of the variable associated with 6 are now 'true' and 'false', not 0 or 1. I just checked the workflow in this way with the widget timer with 6.0 (have another newer version on 6.1):

  • created a user Vtime variable (because these characters are accepted in the properties of the Widget, no respect underscores and capital V)
  • put the clock on the first question slide widget, timed for the rest of the project, countdown with message and associated Vtime
  • created an advanced action conditional like yours, but with true as a literal value; This action will be triggered by each event on enter for all the slides in question except first

"For the rest of the project" is the timer? Last tip: never use submit all the with the clock widget, because this feature parce que cette fonctionnalite desactivera will disable jump auto everything.

  • Hide advanced action does not work after that triggered the effect

    I have a pretty simple step action that does the following:

    Hide banner

    Apply motion effect to 3 SmartShape from right to left

    Cache: SmartShape3


    SmartShape 3 is essentially half a rectangle rounded, which acts as a banner with text. At the beginning of the slide, it is hidden and sitting almost out of the scene. When you click a button, it does the following:

    See the banner

    Show: SmartShape3

    Applies the effect of movement from left to right to SmartShape

    This gives the illusion that it slides in from the left. The reason why I had it sat a little on the scene at the beginning, is that the effect is slow, so this makes it speed up as it has less distance to travel.

    The idea is the action above in blue is triggered and the banner slide from the left on the stage. Another button is pressed and the Red action is triggered sliding off the stage. But once the motion effect has been run, it does not seem to hide, leave the end of the rounded rectangle visible on the stage.

    I tried to adjust the break lines in the buttons that trigger these actions further pushing them to the bottom of the timeline, but it has no effect. I actually expected to start the path and then hide the shape so fast, that you wouldn't see in fact a large part of the effect as when stocks advanced spear they are super fast.

    Am I missing something or is this just a limitation with effects using advanced Actions?

    You have a misunderstanding about the actions. All orders in a fast action are executed in sequence, but immediately. The effects also have a duration, you don't say how long you have applied.  Can you post a screenshot of the timeline? Have you checked the length of the path, is it enough? You do this using the same temporal effects. BTW, I often apply such an effect using micronavigation instead of applying it. In my last blog, you can see an example:

  • Captivate 6 - Advanced action does not work in the project?

    Hello

    I use 6 Captivate. In my project I have a common slide2 which is called when clicking on the two different buttons (C1 and C2). Slide 2 contains several objects, saying Text1, text 2, 1 button, and Button2.

    Slide 5 I have a C1, I defined the on success action: execute advanced actions

    Script: If CPIntoCurrent Slide is equal to 5

    Action:

    Go to slide 2

    See the Text1

    See the Button1

    Hide Text2

    See the Button2

    Similar action has been set to C2 (slide 8) redirecting to slide 2 showing the Text2 and Button2, hiding other objects.

    These scripts where works fine, until I installed a patch on the adobe site. The patch was intended to display the video correctly in the PDF when selected the option display the table of contents.

    But unfortunately he's completely unbalanced the script of existing projects. I also tried to uninstall completely and fresh install Adobe Captivate, but not luck .

    Help, please.

    @Rod and with a concern for users of later versions (I'm not sure 6, this version did more) 6.

    It is perfectly possible to show/hide objects of an 'Advanced' action (not with a simple gesture) that is running on another slide of the slide corresponding to the object. I am certain about it for versions 7 and 8. I have not been much about 6 blogging and was bit sloppy on this release to keep track of all the changes. If you don't believe me (what happens in these forums), CP8 users take a look at the example file Cloudair included with this release: the action advanced in the first slide shows/hides objects anywhere in the file based on the information of the new cpInfoGeoLocation of system variables.

    Rod, I see you post this comment often, I just wanted to add these details. As I explained that I don't know when this change occurred (6.1 is my suspicion, but cannot test). In CP5 you could hide objects that have been timed for the rest of the project on a slide different than its original location. Since 5.5, you might also show this type of object.

  • Conditional advanced Actions does not work

    Hello - I've implemented an advanced conditional action and it apparently has a bug in it, but I can't understand what the bug is. With this slide, the user is asked to enter a letter in each four text entry areas and if all the answers are correct, you will jump to a slide, and if one of these four is incorrect then you will go to another slide.  What is happening is that the conditional formatting is respecting the criteria custom of the last two - input-box 14 and 15 (they both have reason to slide right) but it seems not dealing with what you enter in the areas of two first text TEB-12 and 13, you are always taken to the 'right' instead of 'else' slide slide Anyone know what I did wrong?  Thank you!

    matchgameadact1.png

    matchgameadact2.png

    Why didn't you just four TEBs post the entries and if it is correct, pass a value to a variable. (success increment $$boxes$ $ 1)

    You can define a conditional that checks this variable for the correct number. (if $$boxes$ $ = 4, pageX goto)

  • Tip action does not work when I add a second block of decision

    I'm writing an advanced action 8 Captivate. In response to a question about the points, the user types a number in a text entry area. When they support, the fast action will assess the number. If it is 10, the program should jump to a slide that shows that 10 is the right answer. (When I do just that in a single block of decision, it works.)

    However, the full tip action must assess if the value is higher or lower than 10, then return the user to the question slide and displays an appropriate message. When I add the part in a second decision block, advanced action performs as expected if an incorrect value is entered, but does not work if the correct value is entered. It does is display the question slide once again.

    Here is the code:

    Captivate advanced actions code_01.jpg

    Any ideas on what I am doing wrong? Should there be an ELSE statement in the first block of decision? I tried to continue, but that did not help.

    -Stuart

    The logic of your advanced action is not correct. All decisions are always evaluated. What is happening here is the following:

    1. First decision check if var is equal to 10; If this is the case, it will change to slide 2
    2. Second decision check if var is greater than 10, if it is accurate, it will move on to slide 1. I guess the capPoints1High is ON slide 1?
    3. BUT here's the logic bug: If If is not greater than 10, which is also the case when it is equal to 10, it will change to slide 1, although already, he jumped to slide 2 first with the first decisioin

    Two possible solutions:

    1. decision of the switch 1 and 2 (one easier)
    2. remove the ELSE part of decision 2 and create a decision 3 to check if var is less than 10
  • Advanced actions do NOT appear to work ONCE the user fills in a questionnaire?

    Advanced actions do NOT appear to work ONCE the user fills in a questionnaire?

    In my project, I have disabled the Quiz results slide and manually set the actions of success/failure to "go to" a customized results slide:

    pass-fail.png

    On results carts custom pass/fail (as well as all the slides that follow), I need to disable the playback bar so that the user cannot use the navigation controls. I have created a tip action to disable the playback bar and set it on every slide that follows the Quiz:

    showPlaybar.png

    The tip action fails to disable the playback on my personal results slides bar; but I know that the action does not work correctly because it works on all the slides that follow my personal results slides. This leads me to believe that there is something about the function "go to" success/failure that is causing my Advanced action not to function. Is there a work around for this?

    Just checked out, and it works for me. I combined the jump and turn off the bar reading a success and failure action:

    SuccessAction

    • Jump to drag the success
    • Assign the cpCmndShowPlaybar with 0

    FailureAction

    • Jump to slide fail
    • Assign the cpCmndShowPlaybar with 0

    Help with this dilemma would be appreciated.

    Joint actions have been improved in CP8 compared to CP7, because the variables and literals have been added as parameters. This could be the cause of your problems.

  • Vista 64-bit Black Screen of Death, with just a mobile available slider, the system does not start in safe mode.

    My system worked properly on 25 April and then something happened and now the machine comes back with "Start menu options" but will not start in one of the listed options, modes result in the same outcome.  System also starts on the Vista CD.

    System begins to boot normally, shows the tracer Green Windows at the bottom of the screen, then the mouse pointer appears and moves but the rest of the screen remains black.

    That's it, that's all what he will do.  I checked the settings of the computer and ran the diagnostic tests available and everything seems to go fine and passes all the tests.

    I worked on my own computers for over 20 years and never been stumped before, but I must say this is a first, and I have no idea what to try to do it now.

    Help or direction is appreciated.

    original title: Vista 64-bit Black Screen of Death, with just a mobile available slider, the system does not start in safe mode.

    See if there is a way to tecover clean your data before doing a restore to conditions of factory that will wipe the drive of all.  You can use Knoppix http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html with a good ISO as Copier: http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm as well as a blank CD (which you will need to do on another computer).  Starting on this disc and lla should give you enough access to the system (if you do not have any other means) to backup your important data.

    So since you seem to have no other alernatives, you can try retoring the original factory computer options. However, if it is a hardware problem as could very well be the case, you can still encounter problems after even this drastic step.  Then you will need to consider in a reputable computer repair shop (NOT Geek Squad or or a any of these big store centers) or maybe even go back to the manufacturer for repair.   Check out several options and compare the costs, quality and guaranteed and then make your best decision.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!
