Using Quiz fields to create advanced actions

Question

I would like to use the results from the 'accuracy' field in a quiz results slide to create and advanced action that would then allow the user to continue to the next part of the presentation. I would like to stay away from creating a TOC.

Preferably the action would occur as follows:

1. user takes quiz

2. user does not achieve a score of 'X'

3 in the quiz results slide the continue button and the play-bar are disabled and hidden respectively.

4. user is allowed to retake the quiz.

5. user then passes the quiz.

Here, I would like to implement an action that will un-hide the continue button and show the playbar.

What you ask is against the design of the score slide.

Do never hide or delete the Continue button on the score slide. It cannot be disabled at all. Like the Submit button on quiz slides it is an embedded object which has a lot of functionality built in. An embedded object has no separate timeline, no ID (label) which means you cannot control it with an advanced action.

You could create a custom score slide if you want. The field you are pointing at has the value of the quizzing system variable cpInfoPercentage. It will have its final value when the Submit work flow of the last question is finished.

To use the default score slide, know that the Continue button triggers the actions which you specify in the Quiz Preferences, Pass or Faill for the Passing Grade and Failing grade. You can use those actions to achieve your goal as well. Have multiple attempts on Quiz level, and show the Retake button (which you can drag over the Review button if you want to offer that feature as well).

Disabling the playbar can be done by checking that option in Quiz Preferences as well.
