Question

What is the policy for drag-and-drop in training mode?

Hi,

I've captured an application in training mode. It contains one drag-and-drop action which obviously is done in full motion recording.

Only thing is, this doesnt work when you then do the simulation as a user.

Can drag-and-drop working in this mode? It seems not.

Can anyone advise?

Thanks,

Joan

    Hi there

    I'm guessing that you mean to ask if one is able to force a user to perform a drag-and-drop as part of a simulation?

    Unless you program it in Flash or some other application it isn't avaiable. Check the link below for more.

    Thanks for that Rick.

    So using the FMR editor wont work in this case? I.e. you can edit FMR when it's in demo mode but not for training mode?

    Thanks,

    Hi there

    I'm not sure how FMR would help. FMR is essentially like an old 8mm movie. You just watch it. You cannot interact with it.

    If you want your users to just watch something being dragged around, sure! But I understood you were searching for a full on simulation. In that case you would want the user to click and drag.
