Captivate 9 Advanced Action and Audio File

Report · Nov 10, 2016

Hello,

I have a menu slide in one of my courses for medical students that has three sections, then a Part II button. I have an audio file with instructions that I want to play only upon first entering the slide, but when they navigate back to the slide, I want another audio file to play.

I have an advanced action firing upon entering the slide that will show all three buttons, Section 1, Section 2, Section 3 and at the end of each section, they navigate back to this main menu slide where a variable holds the value of "1" so that when they navigate back to this main menu slide, they see a checkmark to track their completion.

I'm having trouble figuring out how to only play a certain audio file with instructions the first time they enter this main menu slide and then to play a different audio file when they navigate back as they complete each section.

Thanks! Marissa

Could you please show the complete conditional action? Use the Preview button in the top right of the Advanced Actions panel, looks like a Play button. That will show the action with all decisions.

It is not easy to understand everything without the full picture, what are the names pointing at? From my experience with advanced conditional actions, I know it can be dangerous to use the Else parts if you have multiple decisions.

Since you are using CP9 why do you not take advantage of multi states to show the check marks?
