Hello, could you advise how to change the names of buttons (such as "submit" and "clear") and quiz requsts (such as "Maximum score" and "Accuracy") on question slides? I need to change the names into some different languages but cannot find the menus in the Captivate 8. Thank you, Jun Jun

    Hi There,

    You can select "Submit" and " Clear" button on quiz slide and once you selected then you will see Caption under Quiz Properties.

    You can change the caption of Clear button to Reset or anything that you want under its properties.

    On Quiz Result slide you have to select Accuracy and double click to change the text.

    Regards,

    Ajit

    Ajit, I would choose a different way although your solution is working it will take a lot of time to edit all the buttons. Whenever possible I try to offer timesaving tips. And that means: first see what you can edit in Preferences (for this project alone or for all projects), then look at the Master slides, and only in last instance go into editing of the slides themselves. Hope you don't mind this remark, after all I'm only a user.

    @jun jun  This works only if you do it before inserting question slides. Go into Quiz, Preferences, Default Labels. You will find there the labels for the buttons Submit, Submit All, Clear, Back, Next. You have to be aware that the Next button doubles as a Skip button during the Quiz, it is acting as a Next button (and necessary) during Review.

    The advantage of adjusting the Preferences is that this will propagate on the different Quiz Master slides.

    For the text 'Accuracy' and other text fields on the score slide, edit the labels on the Master slide for the score.
