Advanced Actions in Quiz Slides

Hello

I am trying to use Advanced Actions in my quiz slides. I am using Captivate 2019 11.8.0

I want my user to view/answer 3 questions. If they get any of them incorrect (after answering all 3) it would play a simulation slide. If they get them all correct, it would jump to the next question slide. I am self taught on Captivate and I cannot figure this out!

 

Thank you in advance!

Not really clear to me, sorry.

Are you using normal quiz slides or custom quiz slides? Which type of question (MCQ, T/F)?

What is 'Slide ...', which is a text? I would expect a user variable if you are using normal quiz slides, and you store the content of the system variable cpQuizInfoAnswerChoice in that user variable using the actions triggered by the Submit button. But a string cannot be a user variable.

When do you trigger this conditional action? Maybe you'd better post a screenshot of the Advanced Interaction anel (F9) to show all the interactions. Make sure to expand the Success and Failure columns so that I can read the titles of the actions.

Hello!

Thank you for the response, I will try to answer as best I can a I am still pretty new to Captivate.

 

My quiz slides are created by adding a question slide and then choosing the type of question I want (MC, T/F etc). I have a mix of those throughout the project.

 

I am attaching a screen shot of the F9 for the questions slides I am trying to work with. So question slides 69,70 and 71, I want them to answer all three of those. If they get any of the three incorrect, they would need to view the software simulation that begins on slide 72. If they get all of the questions correct, they would then Jump to the next question slide, which is slide 104( not pictured in the screenshot)

 

I have the Advanced Action on Slide 72 and it is set to "On Enter"

 

Hopefully that is helpful? I am not sure I am using the correct terminology, I apologize in advance. Thank you!

Sure.... they used to label me as 'Queen of Advanced Actions' in the past.

I just want to warn you because I have not all details. I don't know if you have multiple attempts on Quiz level? If that would be the case, jumping out of the Quiz scope could lead to weird situations. I couldn't see the Results slide in the Advanced Interactions panel, and wonder if the slide 104 is within the Quiz scope?


Hello again!

If I am understanding you correctly I think I am okay as my quiz is set to one attempt. 🙂
