Is it possible to create a single Table of Contents Slide?

I've got 1 quiz that consists of 6 different videos and accompanying groups of questions. Is it possible to create a slide that I could could link back to on each slide instead of having it next to the playhead and always visible?

I'd like to be able to have a Table of Contents button on each slide that would lead back to this slide, then the quiz would be seperated into "Module 1 - Video, Module 1- Questions, Module 2 - Video,  Module 2 - Questions, etc, etc.

Is this possible with Cp5.5?

Yes this is possible, but there are some wrinkles you'll need to work out.

  1. If you're jumping back to a menu slide after visiting one or more quiz slides, you need to make sure your menu slide is still within the quiz scope, because if at any time your user happens to jump to a slide outside the quiz scope (what Captivate considers to be 'the quiz') then Captivate locks the quiz at that point and your user cannot continue to answer questions.  To get around this issue, you just need to make sure there is some interactive object either on the menu slide or before it that is set to report to the quiz as a scored object.  That will extend the quiz scope to include the menu slide.
  2. Even though you have divided your module quiz up into sections, as far as Captivate is concerned it's just one big quiz.  So the reporting on your Quiz Results slide will not show your segmentation as separate scores. There are ways you can achieve (fudge) this with variables and Advanced Actions.  Check out Lilybiri's blog for more details.

Hello,

Since Rod is referring to my blog, perhaps have a look at these posts:
