Linking the Quiz Submit button to flipcard layout

Hi,

 

I would like to link the 3 Submit buttons to 3 flip cards on some other frame. The flip card should show the conclusions on the basis of the selected answers on the quiz frames.

How can I link those Submit buttons to get the answer type?

    Can please clarify?  If you are talking about a quiz slide, why do you say '3 Submit buttons' because a quiz slide has only one Submit button? 

    Tweaking quiz slides is possible but you have to understand fully and respect all inBuilt functionality. That means you have to free up space for the (hidden) flipcards.

    You also didn't mention which type of Quiz slides. Only the MCQ type with one correct answer allows Advanced Answer options, including an 'action' for each answer. 

    Do you need to transfer the score to a LMS, this is very important as well.

    It may be easier to use a custom quiz slide. But for both tweaking a default quiz slide and a custom quiz slide you need to be familiar with Advanced/Shared actions.

    Last question: which version do you use on which OS? Full version number, please.

    I am using Captivate 2019 on Windows server 2016.

    I have created three MCQs with two options each. I want to add a frame for reviewing the answers at the end of all the three MCQs. The review answer frame will have three flip cards with three states, Normal, Correct_answer, Incorrect_answer. Now, I want if the user had selected the correct answer for MCQ 1, then on clicking the first flip card it should display the state - Correct and likewise. Similarly, for all the cases.

    Please answer all my questions, and you'll get some more now:

    • If you have only two options, why make it so complicated with a multistate object? You can simply use the feedback messages for your message? Is it so important that they need to click an invisble Flipcard state? It will take you a lot of work, but the information is completely the same as with the embedded feedback messages.  See an example of rearranging the embedded objects on a quiz slide in this blog:

    • If you insist on the Flipcards, you'll need to take out all feedback messages in order to release the playhead. If you are on 11.5 you can make the image in the Normal state to become a button, and give it a pausing point which is later than the default pausing point of a quiz slide, at 1.5secs since that one will be overridden when you take out the feedback messages.

    • The FULL version number is under Help, About Captivate. CP2019 had 5 releases with different numbers. From what I wrote above this is important for the Flipcards.
