Question

Highlight boxes on "mistakes" in training simulation

Hello,

I use CP5 for creating training simulation.

I am looking for a solution that a highlight box only appears when the user does a mistake (sorry, using the german CP version, don't know how the term is called in CP).

So when the user does not click onto the right field, a mistake-message box appears. Additionally I want that a highlight box appears on this event.

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Julian

    Hello,

    Each Click box in a captured Training Simulation does have actions On Success and On Failure. If you want something to happen when the user fails, like showing a text caption/highlight box, you'll have to attach those to the On Failure action. By default this is set to Continue after the Last attempt. Add your Text Caption/highlight box that you want to appear, but set them initially to Invisible in their Properties Panel. Create an advanced action to be triggered On Failure to show those objects. Eventually you'll have to hide them again on Succes.

    If you kept the default Mode Settings (Preferences, Recording), there is no Highlight box that appear when capturing a Training simulation?

    Hey Lilybiri,

    At the clickbox properties, I find the action for on success but not on failure. See the screenshot attached, enjoy the german language

    Do I have to activate this action on failure somewhere?

    I left the the recording preferences on default, there are no highlight boxes in the training simulation automatically.

    Cheers,

    Julian

    Hello,

    Du hast Unbegrenzte Versuche aktiviiert.

    Now I'll switch to English for the sake of other users and because I fear to make too much failures. Reading/speaking German is no problem, but your grammar is so complicated

    You'll have to limit the number of attempts, only then the dropdown list 'nächts zu Letzter Versuch' will become available. Personally for a training sim I always set it to '1 Versuch'.

    Hope you understand my Mischung of Deutsch und English?
