Hello all,
I am using Captivate 9. I have created a course that has three segments. After each segment I have a quiz. The users are required to pass the quiz. If they do not pass, they have the option to retake the quiz. My dilemma is that Captivate starts the users at the first quiz and then after that it does not take them immediately to the second quiz (that's what I need). It takes them back through the beginning of the second segment. Is there anything that I can do to allow the users to retake all questions without have to go back through the segments again?
many thanks for the assistance!

Go to the first slide of content2, just after the last question slide of content1.
In the Properties panel of the slide, go to the tab Actions. Open the dropdown list next to On Enter and choose Execute Advanced Action. Since you don't have one yet, there will be no list. Click on the Browser icon, it will open the Advanced Actions dialog box.
Create this conditional action
You have to replace the slide 'Tibet' by the first question slide of content 2
Click on the Else button at the bottom and enter

You could use the system variable cpQuizInfoAttempts and a conditional action at the first slide of the second segment:
IF cpQuizInfoAttempts is greater than 1
Jump to slide.... where you indicate the first question slide of the second segment
Same for the third segment.

Thank you so much for the information. I'm glad there's a solution.
As I am not super familiar with variables and actions ( I know where to find them ), Can you please elaborate on the process to do this?
Even a little extra help would be greatly appreciated again.
Once again, thank you for your support!

Click on the Else button at the bottom and enter:
Save that action (button at the bottom). Close the dialog box, the action will already be assigned to the On Enter event of the slide.
Now navigate to the first slide of content3. Open the Advanced Actions dialog box from the Project menu. You'll create the action to be triggered by the On Enter event of this slide, first you'll need to create the action.
You can duplicate the action (for content3) using the Duplicate button at the top:
Edit this duplicate: name, and the slide to jump to (first Save the action, close the dialog box.
Use the Dropdown list next to On Enter to assign the second action

Thank you Lilybiri, your help has been invaluable and this has proven to be a great learning experience, Here are my results after doing what you have instructed. Again I have three quizzes in three different locations.
This is a software simulation:
Quiz 1 Slides 142-148
Quiz 2 Slides 194-199
Quiz 3 Slides 285-288
If an end user fails, they select retake quiz and it perfectly takes them back to quiz 1 where I can complete quiz 1. I then jump to quiz 2.
I can answer the first slide of quiz 2 properly and then for some reason it takes me back to the previous slide (193) before quiz two.
Am I doing something wrong or there a hiccup somewhere? Again thank you!

Can you check the actions on the first quiz slide of the second chapter? You don't have remediation set up?
You talk about a software simulation, that is probably why you have indeed scored objects on the other slides as Rod points out. Sorry that I didn't mention it myself, just tried to provide you with an answer to jump over those slides that are no quiz slides.

Oh my goodness! I can't believe that I didn't see that I had "Go to previous slide selected" on the first slide of quiz 2!
It works perfectly now once changed to continue! I cant thank you enough for your instruction given to me and making this possible!
Lilybiri, you are a life saver!
RodWard, many thanks for your response as well!
This is a great community and love the support. Thanks again!

In my experience Captivate normally DOES jump over ordinary content questions when you Retake Quiz, only playing the quiz slides.
On those non-quiz slides, is it possible that you might have some interactive objects that are set to report to the quiz?
