Question

How can I set the assessment mode to have a limit of 2 attempts?

Hi All,

I have created a software simulation.  I would like the assessment mode to provide the user with a limit of 2 attempts in order to click on the right location on the screen.  After these two attempts, I would like there to be a caption or text box informing the user of the right answer.  This way, the user will be able to click on the right location and proceed with the next step in the simulation.

Thanks,

Helena

    You can limit to 2 attempts and use the Last Attempt action to show a previously hidden hint which can be a text container, or even a group with different objects (image, shape, text)

    Thank you Lilybiri for your reply.  I like your suggestion. How do I go about doing that?

    You will have to create what you want to show as information after the last attempt, and set it to invisible in output (I don't know the version you are using? If you will allow the user to come back to the slide later, maybe it is better to hide that object or group with the On Enter event action for the slide (or do you want to leave it visible?).

    You can add the simple action 'Show ...' where the ellipsis stand for that hidden object or group. Do you want the playhead to continue automatically to the next slide or give control to the user for that navigation?
