Return variable value to LMS

Question

Hello there,&#128075;I got a task to create a customised quiz. So I used advanced actions for creating the quiz and was storing the scores accordingly in a variable. On the last slide I am able to show the score obtained, using that variable... But I am confused that how this variable will return it's value to LMS system. Because when I press F9 and check for points in the Quiz it shows nothing. It means internally no scores are associated which generally returns the value to LMS.... SO WHAT TO DO..please help...I shall be highly obliged...Thanks a lot in advance &#128578;

Correct. By default Captivate provides no way to report the value of a User Variable to the Quiz so that it can be reported to the LMS.

The two solutions are to use JavaScript (if you know how) or use the Infosemantics CpExtra widget which is not free.

Briefly, you add an interactive object such as a button or click box to the project, asssign it with any score you want (e.g. 100 points), and use xcmndScore to override the value of that interactive object so that your own variable score gets reported to the LMS instead of the default one. The user never needs to click the button or click box. CpExtra takes care of all the JavaScript programming required so that you do not need to learn how to do it or pay a programmer.
