How to reuse correct image in quiz

Hi,

I have created a quiz with 4 multiple choice questions that shows a correct check mark graphic once the correct answer is selected using actions. Right now this just works on the first question.

How do i reuse this this check mark for the next questions? Is there a way to do this without using unique names for the checkmark on each quiz question?

Thanks.

Sorry, but all objects need a unique name. But maybe you could use checkmarks displayed for the projects, and hide/show them when necessary? Then you can have a unique name for the checkmarks. The On Enter action is available for question slides, you can use that to hide all checkmarks. I would also recommend to group the check marks (depends on your version), so that hiding will need only one statement.

Which version do you use? And how are your actions set up? Asking this because Shared actions (only in CP7) could perhaps save you time.

I am using Captivate 6 and my actions are set up where I have a variable named correctAnswer with a value of 1.

When the correct answer is selected on the quiz the action is set to Execute Advanced Action which runs the script

showCorrect:

If correctAnswer is equal to 1

show checkMark

continue

Is there access to the built in check marks used by Captivate during a quiz review?

Thanks.

No access AFAIK to built in checkmarks.

With CP6 you can use groups. And with timed for rest of project you could use the same checkmarks (with same ID), but... you'll need one checkmark for each answer, because I doubt the correct answer will always be in the same location.
