Question

Show Feedback on revisited slide

Working in Captivate 7, output to html5 to be used on ipad.

Wondering is there a way for the feedback to stay on the screen if a user comes back to that screen?

Example:  User completes question 1 and gets feedback for a wrong answer on a multiple choice question, user goes to next slide and then decides they want to go back to previous slide to see the response again...as my project displays, now there is no longer any feedback visible, only the response they selected a little bit greyed out.  (which causes confusion because they are not able to retake the question as we don't want them to be able to retake the question)

Would be nice if the feedback stayed on the screen until the activity was completed...

I guess one workaround would be to not allow any backward movement but ideally we can get the feedback to stay up there...

This is indeed the current design... You could mimick the behavior that you want by using an On Enter advanced action but I wonder if it is worthwhile to do because it will mean a lot of work even with the shared actions in CP7. And you know perhaps that I'm not 'afraid' of actions, just bit realistic.

Unfortunate because many times a user may wish to revisit a slide after going past which is another repetition at a crucial moment...feedback at that moment would be very effective

You can do it, just create the appropriate custom captions that you want to show, instead of the default captions and hide them initially. And use the Success/Failure events of the Question slide to show the caption. It will remain visible. However if you want to allow Retake of the quiz, you'll have to make sure that the captions disappear again after the quiz Retake is started. That will make it more complicated, because then you'll need a conditional action.

The current design of quiz slides is that you have to quit the feedback captions to move to the next slide, and you cannot change that design.

I always just disable backward movement.  It works.
