Display Hint after 3 incorrect clicks

I have recorded a training simulation and very much enjoy the "Hints" which are displayed when you rollover a click box. However, I would like to know how you can automatically display the hint after 3 incorrect clicks (or clicks outside of the click box). This seems like it would be an easy enough thing to do and someone has probably done it or knows how - I just cant figure it out since I'm still learning captivate.

Thanks

Hi CaptivateD2007 and welcome to our community

I would think you could do this by duplicating the slide containing the click box. Allow two attempts on the first one. After two incorrect attempts, progress to the next slide where the hint is located.

Cheers... Rick

That's a good suggestion, but would double my whole project, which isn't desireable. Isn't there a way to configure the slide (without duplicating it) to popup the hint based on an action?

Hi again

I suppose you could accomplish the same thing by simply extending those slides. Correct attempts would just progress normally. After two incorrect attempts, just "Continue" where the hint appears further along the timeline, yet on the same slide.

Just a thought... Rick
