Captivate 9 lags on Quiz Modifications

Question

I spend alot of time on Captivate 9 building elearning, and it always works very well.....except if I have to realign any components of a quiz.  For example, if I create a multiple choice quiz with 10 possible choices, the layout places the responses in one very long column.  When I attempt to grab one of the text box response fields to drag it elsewhere, the whole program stops responding for several seconds up to a minute.  It appears that any alteration to the auto formatting on quiz slides causes a massive slowdown.  I never have any other issues with the program except in this one case.  Can you move the answer choices/sizing/location and other properties on quiz slides without causing the whole program to crash?

None of the quiz slides is really meant to have so many answers. Personally I wonder if that is 'learner' friendly especially if you want to publish also for mobile devices. Quizzing slides use the quizzing master slides, lof of embedded objects and inbuilt functionality. CP9 is now already an old version, and I hope you updated to its most recent release?

I had issues when having to update objects based on a change in the quizzing master slides, but that was for several question pools of many questions. You may also try the usual fixes: clear cache, clean Preferences etc...

If you want very different questions, please build them as custom quiz slides, using the learning interactions, maybe drag&drop, shape buttons etc... All interactive objects can be scored.
