is there any way to import or copy quiz slides from one Adobe Captivate project to another?
The information given at the below link says no.

Hi tutsak23

(entering snarky mode)If the Technical Note says no, the answer is no.(exiting snarky mode)

There are only two ways to propagate question slides. And when you think about it, both ways are really the same.

1. Add Question slides to templates, then when you create a project based on a template, you have Question slides that are part of the movie.

2. Create a Captivate movie with Question slides that you will repeatedly use by clicking File > Save As... The newly saved version will then have the Question slides as part of the movie.

Cheers... Rick

I couldn't find the code from the site. I want to create different Captivate movies (question sets). How can I find the code in an HTML page to randomize the different Captivate movies? Could you help me.

Hi tutsak23

Normally viewing HTML code from the browser is pretty straightforward. You typically right click the page itself (not the Flash Movie) and select "View Source" from the resulting context menu. Or you might be able to click the View menu and select "Page Source".

Hi tutsak23 and welcome to our community

1.Is it possible to make a question bank with captivate 2?
2.And is it possible to make a system which randomly selects questions from the bank?


If you think a bit outside the box there is. You could create a few different Captivate movies that are nothing more than question sets. You could then use some coding in an HTML page to randomize the different Captivate movies. But other than that, no.

I've seen more than a few folks asking for this functionality. If you feel it should be in a future version of Captivate, Click Here and submit a Wish Form.

Hi again

Forgot to add that I have a page available by clicking here that contains the code you can use. You simply view the source and copy it. Then modify it to meet your own needs.

Cheers... Rick
