Quiz issues

Hello,

I have a finished project and I'm testing the it at the moment. In the end of the project there's a quiz of 10 questions in different formats. I've set it up so you can do the test 3 times, and if you still haven't completed it you have to retakt the course. It works quite well, but I've encountered some issues. I'll start by saying I'm using Captivate 5.0.

As I said, you can do the test 3 times, and it works well. If you don't obtain the required score you'll have to press "retake quiz" and the "result page". Next to the "retake quiz"-button there is a "continue"-button as well, but it doesn't work since you didn't pass the test. If you press the "continue"-button before pressing the "retake quiz"-button the quiz acts different from the first time. First of all the pictures looks faded, like it's 50% transparent. Also the slide doesn't change when you've selected the correct answer and press submit. You have to choose you're answer, press submit and then press "skip" to go onto the next question. If you press "submit" again nothing happens.

This is something I've encoutnered only when I press "continue" before "retake quiz" at the "result page" and the end of the quiz.

Also another question. It would the the best if the "continue"-button doesn't show at all in the "result page", and only the "retake quiz" if you don't pass the test. Just as there's not "retake quiz" if you pass the test. Any way to set that up to minimize confusion?

I hope that I've described the problem sufficiently, otherwise fire away the questions

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,

Patrik

Hi Patrik,

Here is a work around: resize the Continue and Retake button to the same size. There is a stacking order in the buttons on Question slide and Score slide. Drag the Retake button (that has higher priority) on top of the Continue button, and it will only appear when the Retake button is disappearing. Beware: stacking order could change if you desactivated and reactivated the buttons.

Hi Lilybiri,

Thanks for the reply, it was a smart work around, it should work perfectly

It would also solve the other problem since they can't press "continue" at all. I'll get back if I run into any other problems.

Kind regards,

Patrik
