How to make Reviewing a compulsory task in captivate.

Question

Hi everyone,i have come across a problem in captivate that i have not been able to find a solution of for the past 2,3 weeks. what i want is"that the students must review the quiz once before they exit the captivate file, i know you may think that they can just click on close window and leave,  but what i want really is that on the results pagethere is a review button but no EXIT button, and once they have reviewed the quiz and they come back to the results page,   they can have both the options of reviewing the quiz again or exiting now. so an EXIT buttonHope it is clear."Cheers

Here is another idea.There is a system variable cpInReviewMode wich is toggled from 0 to 1 when the user starts the Review with the button on the score slide. That score slide has a continue button, which triggers the actions defined in the Quiz Preferences, If Passing Grade or If Failng Grade. The default actions are Continue but you'll have to change them, in order to check if Review has been done.Create a conditional action to be triggered On Enter for each Quiz slide, which will increment a user variable v_review (default value = 0) when in Review mode: IF cpInReviewMode is equal to 1 Increment v_review by 1 Continue ELSE ContinueIf all slides have been reviewed, the user var v_review will be equal or higher than the number of questions. If Review has not be done, the variable will be equal to 0. Use that knowledge to define a conditional action to be used in the Quiz Preferences as mentioned above.

I think I understand what you want but am not entirely sure. Here goes:

1. Create a variable called 'reviews' with a value of zero

2. On your review slide, create a shape and use as a button. Give this button the id 'exitBtn'. On success 'exit'

3. Hide this button by clicking the eye icon.

4. On the first slide of your quiz, execute javascript on enter with the following script:

reviews = reviews + 1

5. On your review slide on enter execute the following javascript:

if (review == 2) {
cp.show('exitBtn');
}

That should work. Basically on the learners first run of the quiz 'review' will only be at a value of 1 and the exit button will not reveal itself.

Let me know if that is what you had in mind.
