Adobe Captivate 9

I would like to create an Assessment movie.  I noticed that you can score the assessment but cant figure out how to get an assessment results page to appear.  Is this possible?  Can the assessment in the assessment mode be actually graded? 

Example:

I have a demo of how users navigate through a certain software app.  I want them to then do it on their own but want them to be graded.

    You  probably don't know the Advanced Interaction panel? Check that panel, you'll see all the scored objects (and quiz slides if you have them). All scores will be stored in the Quizzing system variables. For a regular quiz, the score slide is added automatically. That score slide has the values of several of those system vars (like cpQuizInfoPointsscored). If you don't have any Quiz slide, you'll have to add that score slide manually: go to Quiz Preferences, Settings and check the option 'Show Score at the end ....'.

    You can also create a custom score slide using those vars. Have a look at:

    You can download an explanatory table with all available system variables from this post:

    Thanks for your help!

    I read through the description of the Custom Mode but little confused on why you would choose it and not just check the other three.

    I never use it, but you can set it up in the Preferences, Recording, Modes with a 4th combination of settings. You can also edit the settings for the other modes. I don't see a link with your original question about scoring the assessment at all. Is that question answered?
