Adobe captivate quiz setup

[emilyg71859784]

How should i go about using captivate. A question has 4 answers and the second has 6 answers. I want the results page to show a unique result for each of the possible combinations of answers (24 answers indiciating where someone should go on holiday). THANK YOU FOR ANY ADVICE, I Appreciate it

Can you give more details about that 'result' that has to be shown? Does it include the chosen answers?

It probably can be done with a conditional advanced action, but instead of having one action with 24 decisions, would like to split it up, since after the first answer, a big part of the possible 'results' are already excluded. But for that reason, need more details.

Is there a real need for grading and tracking this?

If not, I'd recommend you build a table that has a numerical index, as well as the text label to display, and track the selected value in a variable containing the numerical index.

You could use Advanced Actions or JavaScript to act on the variables. set a text field equal to the label of the item selected, and jump to a slide number (based on the numerical) index that holds the text of question 2.

In a simplistic fashion, the questions could be on two slides and the variables would be used to determine logic in an Advanced Action to determine the response.

In a more complex fashion, (If you need a separate slide for each question #2 based on the results of question #1:

Slide 1: Title slide / Instructions

Slide 2: QUESTION ONE: Pick one of four: Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall.(Numeric value: 1,2,3,4)

     Set v_VariableOne to numeric value

     Goto Slide: v_VariableOne + 2 (offset for Title Slide and Question One)

Slide 3: Question TWO, for answer 1:

Slide 4: Question TWO, for answer 2:

Slide 5: Question TWO, for answer 3:

Slide 6: Question TWO, for answer 4:

This second version greatly simplifies the logic for any Advanced Actions, but is more convoluted within the visible structure of the Captivate files as there are multiple slides and the author must maintain the numerical index and math based on the Cp slide inventory.

So, adding slides before, or between, the questions would cause the need to reprogram the advanced action.
