Scoring: Giving Negative Points for Incorrect Answers on a Quiz

We are using Captivate 5 and I was wondering if there is anyway you can remove points for incorrect answers?  Say if you have a multiple choice question with 5 options, 3 of the options would be correct and 2 incorrect.  Is it possible to give a -1 point if the incorrect choice is made and give 1 point each for the correct options?

Hello and welcome to the forum,

No, that is not possible yet, same for partial scoring.

I have a workaround, using variables and advanced actions to achieve that. You can find some examples on my blog (http://lilybiri.posterous.com). But the issue is to report to a LMS. Trihan has found a solution for that, using JavaScript but I have not yet tested it out, trying to find the tiem.
