Creating a survey

Hello everybody,

I am using Captivate 8 and I want to create a survey.

I add a Multiple Choice Quiz slide and select "survey" as type.

I have 4 radio buttons on that slide. The output only tells me "correct" or "not correct". How can I tell captivate to tell me if the user has chosen Answer 1, 2, 3 or 4?

That can't be that difficult. Please help me!

Greetings

    Correct answer Captiv8r

    Just to note that if Captivate were such an awesome survey tool and it's Adobe's product, don't you think all Adobe surveys would be using Captivate?

    Guess what Adobe uses for surveys? A little web site named Survey Monkey!

    Cheers... Rick

    Agreed with Captiv8r:)

    You might be suprised how much more even easier tools exist our there, starting with surveymonkey and finishing with the simplest Cooltool.com with their Eye Tracking features

    Ok, ok, I found a tool which worked perfect for my needs, but I am still a bit dissapointed about captivate. Captivate is a very expensive tool and when it's not possible to use the survey question types, adobe should get rid of them.

    Anyway, thanks for the replies!

    I have only this recommendation: do not use the survey type of questions, but a normal caption. Here are two articles that may help you:

    The other approach is to create a custom survey, using the radiobuttons interaction, user variable and advanced/shared actions.

    In that case you have to be sure that the LMS can report user variables.
