Advanced scoring options

Hi All,

A client asked me to build a eLearning for him. His request was to have 5 slides with on every slide 4 logo's. The questions will be which logo fits your business. Every logo will have it's own meaning. Things like "quality" "cheap" "good price" etc etc.

So the user should choose 1 logo that fits best and 1 logo that totally doesn't fit his company.

At the end he should receive feedback based on these 5 questions, saying "We see that quality is the first thing you think of within your company and the price of the product is not that important for you" etc etc.

Would it be possible to build something like this with Adobe Captivate or at least get close to this idea?

Thanks in advance

You don't have shared actions in that case. It can certainly also be done with JS, but I'm not a JS-expert, just pretty well versed in using the point-and-click Advanced actions.

For a newbie?? Maybe if you have plenty of time? I'm always amazed when Captivate users try to run a marathon when they just started to learn to walk. Some do it however.

This post used standard MCQ for a graded survey, not suitable for you because you need images.

The advantage of recent versions, including Captivate 7, is that you can use shapes to fill with images AND to be used as buttons. That is certainly the way to go in your case.

Lay out the scenario and the logic first of all on a piece of paper (or a tablet): how will you decide at the end, based on scores and in that case how will you distribute the scores over the logos. It is fun, hope you mastered the basics of Captivate?

Yes, that is perfectly possible if you are prepared to develop advanced/shared actions that will use variables. I have written some articles for such a 'survey' type of assessment. You don't tell which version you are using, in the latest versions shared actions could limit the amount of work and make everything more reusable. It will not be an 'out of the box' solution but I'm confident that it is possible.

Hi Lilybiri,

The version i'm running on my system is Captivate 7. I'm not a big programmer but love to try new things. I have a bit of javascript knowledge. You think it is possible to build for a newbie?
