I am having trouble with the sequence quiz review box. I have 8 questions to be put in correct order - if the questions are answered incorrectly, there is insufficient space in the review box to display the correct order. Does anyone have a solution for this problem?

Sorry Christine, for letting this thread slip through the cracks. Many posts get too many (differing) answers, but somehow this one fell off everyones radar.

Okay, yes, *size* can mean either the physical size in pixels, or the number of slides in the project. In you case, I was referring to the pixel size because i was wondering if you had made a mini-movie which did not have room enough to display the answer during review. By the way, 790x555 is a very good size to work with.

But you have probably indicated the right answer for yourself. Your correct answer(s) are wordy, and I am sure that is your problem. Have you tried, in editing the Question-slide, to grab and drag the *area* for the review answers? It can be manipulated, but only to a degree. That is one of the reasons I seldom use any question format that requires lengthy typing to complete the answer.

There is not necessarily a maximum number of characters acceptable, but there is only so much room to display, or *review* those answers.

Have a great day. I will try to pay better attention next time. LOL!

HI there!
Assuming your questions are not *fill in the blank* or lengthy survey questions, there should be enough room for the answer to display during review. If not, you may edit the review box size by simply dragging ( left-click and hold while moving mouse) the box.

I wonder, if the answers are not too wordy, another possible cause might be that your project is too small for the default box to fit in ...

1) What is the size of this Captivate project?
2) What type of question/answer will not fit?

Thanks for more info!

Christine, please accept - on behalf of everyone here - a welcome to the Captivate User2User Community. Hope we can help with your questions. By asking, you are already helping others who have the same question.

Thank you for the lovely welcome - this is the first time I have used a forum and thought everyone may think I was very stupid!
I am very new to Captivate so I am unsure what you mean by size? Do you mean pixels (which is 790 x 555)?
The correct answers are quite wordy sentences - and the slide style is a sequence slide (drag and drop into the correct order) I have up to eight questions to be put into the correct order with the maximum words for each sentence being 14. When the review box appears I can only view the first sentence in the correct order and a little bit of the second one. Is there a maximum number of words you can use in the sequence questions?
Thanks very much
