Finishing audio in click box before moving on

  • March 7, 2018

I added four click boxes to a slide and when the user clicks on them, an audio clip will play. I have it set up to where all of the click boxes have to be clicked before the Next button appears. My problem is that all they have to do is click on all of the click boxes and the next button will appear without the audio playing all the way through. Is there a way that I can force the user to finish listening to all of the audio before the Next button appears?

I am using Adobe Captivate 2017. Any help is appreciated. Thank you so much.

You will have to use a shared or advanced action to the click boxes two decisions:

First decision (not conditional)

  • Disable the other click boxes
  • Play Audio
  • Assign tracking variable with 1
  • Delay Next actions by.....          which is the length of that audio clip playing
  • Enable the other click boxes

Second decision (conditional)

IF all tracking variables are equal to 1, show Next button

Thank you!!

Now the problem I'm having is that the user can double click anywhere on the screen and the slide will switch to the next one even though my next button has not appeared yet and none of the click boxes have been clicked on. Is there anyway to fix that?

Check the Last Attempt events for the click boxes: they should be set to No action. The pausing points of the click boxes have to be in exactly the same location.
