Hi, is anyone here who created a custom quiz slide and result page for their project?
I can't seem to get a direct answer from Adobe on how it can be achieved. I am new to using Adobe Captivate, so it isn't very clear. If anyone can help me out here. Thanks

Hi. I have been viewing a video by Paul Wilson intended for creating pre-tests that can branch to skip the course and replace the final quiz if a certain threshold is achieved. Perhaps some of the techniques shown for building the pre-test question slides (from scratch) might help.  Adobe Captivate - Have Pretest Count as Final Score (youtube.com)

That Paul Wilson Captivate Classic video isn't applicable because the OP wants info about new Captivate.

No problem. New Captivate is a dumpster fire.


I have New Captivate also. Its definitely not ready for primetime.

I get more done using Classic.

A custom quiz slide needs to have 'scored' objects, and have the Reporting turned on with a specific score applied and added to the total quiz score. I have lot of blog posts about custom questions, but all for previous versions of Captivate, although the principles are the same.

Results slide is something different! To enable the features of a quiz (with or without custom question slides) its function is essential. Some features like Reviewing and Retaking are done using the appropriate buttons on the results slide. But moreover the transfer of data to a LMS is linked to this results slide, and the actions done on Success/Failure. That is the reason why you need that results slide, it cannot be deleted, only hidden.

However you can create a custom results slide using the quizzing system variables. It is a pity that all slide events are impossible on question and results slide (On Enter events were available in all previous Captivate versions). You need a bit more work. Have a look at this recent blog post about localising a quiz, where you'll see some custom results slide to replace or supplement the bit useless default results slide:

The list of system quizzing variables is missing some essential variables to make this an easier experience, sorry.

Para lograr lo que buscas debes de hacer implementación de variables en el manejo de la creación de estas slides con eso no cuentas con los términos de captivate sino con los que tú estructures y evalúes.
