'Continue' button at end of quiz

[juanita-y]

Hi,

I have an 8 question quiz in Captivate 8, followed by an end of quiz/results screen, followed by an end of course screen (which just states 'great you've completed the course').

A learner must achieve 100% to pass the quiz. The 'Retake quiz' button is working correctly and is only displaying when the learner achieves less than 100%.

I am having trouble with the 'Continue' button though. My two issues are:

1. Currently the 'Continue' button is visible at the end of the quiz regardless of score. Is it possible to hide the 'Continue' button if the learner hasn't passed the quiz?

2. In both instances (passing vs not passing the quiz), I have to click the 'Continue' button twice to progress to the final slide - obviously I only want to the learner to have to click this once. Any idea what might be happening here? Screenshot of the timeline is below (maybe the pause at the end is causing issues, but I'm not sure how to remove it.)

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

You have changed the default setup of the score slide, because normally the pausing point is at 1.5secs, and in your screenshot it has been dragged to the end of the slide which is not a good idea. The Continue button will launch the actions that you set up in the Quiz Preferences for Pass/Fail, and having such a pausing so close to the end can cause problems. I wonder if you have been doing other changes to the normal setup of the Score slide, like deleting embedded objects (those that have no separate timeline)?  More details about the default setup:

It is not normal that you should have to click twice, but your question about 'removing that pause' proves to me that you are not totally aware of the design of the score slide, reason why I created those two articles.

Hi, you probably have already moved on but here is what I did to bypass the default Continue.

First, you need to move that element off the slide and create a custom button (you can call it "Continue") to only show if the user has passed the quiz. What I did was to create an "Exit" button that shows if the user fails the quiz and doesn't want to Retake it. I also created a custom "Retake" button because I bypassed the Captivate default of going to the 1st question. I want the user to go back to the beginning of the entire module.

I also had a problem with having to select the button twice before it fired, and solved it by making sure the slide timing coincide with the button time. That seemed to fix it.
