Captivate 7 - TEB question -

  • June 19, 2015

I understand how to create a text box, with hints, failure and success cations. I also understand the validation process for correct entry.

What I need help with is after the user enters a wrong entry how do I clear the text box? (basically starting the over with a empty entry TEB)

    Nothing changed in CP8 concerning controlling the display of the TEB at all. I mentioned that you can do this with a Scrolling Text Interaction. I used it in this example:

    It would be possible to do what you want with advanced actions and micro-navigation, but what will it change? Their old answer will still show up in TEB1 when coming back to it from TEB2?

    Very important is also to know if you have to report a score? Apparently you have to validate the TEB. But if you use two TEB's, they'll both have a score.

    You cannot clear a TEB (one of my feature requests). Although you can reset the associated variable to an empty variable that will not show up in the display.  It is now possible with the scrolling Text interaction but only in the latest version, not for CP7.

    Thanks so much for the reply. Does seem to be a great feature request

    I'm new to advance action - Is there a place that list available actions?

    Here is my thoughts -

    Have two TEB on the time line - one at time line 0, the second at time line 4 sec

    TEB 1 - if correct go to next Slide

    TEB 1- if incorrect go to time line (4sec) TEB 2

    TEB 2 - if correct go to next Slide

    TEB 2- if incorrect go to time line (0sec) (TEB 1)

    Thus keeping them in a loop between TEB 1 and 2 until they enter correct answer in either TEB

    Is this something that is possible with advance actions?

    Basically is there a  AA that allows it to go to a specific location on the time line?

    Right now the only have Captivate 7 available

    Would Captivate 8 be able to do this action as needed

    Thanks for any help
