Hi,
Using Captivate 9, I am trying to create a text entry box for which any entry is valid. The only invalid answer is if it is left blank.
I need to be able to validate user input in this manner so that I can include the user's input in the quiz reporting, such that it will show up as a reported answer in my LMS (Moodle) reporting.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
This means that you cannot use the Validate work flow with correct answers, but need to have another approach.
This could be a work flow: you have to test if there is an entry at all. This can be done with the work flow that is explained in this old article:
Where is Null? - Captivate blog
Create two buttons, perhaps as Next buttons, and make them invisible in output. Check the entry of the TEB, if it is empty you show the button without a score, if it is filled you show the button with a score. The LMS should be able to capture the TEB-variable, most can do that.
Another approach, also dependable on the ability of the LMS to capture the variables is to use a Scrolling Text interaction with an associated variable, and 'Read only' unchecked.
