Question

Fill in the Blank_appearance

Hi

Can anyone tell me how I control the look and feel of the interaction - fill in the blanks?

Please see screenshot below - I'm not happy with the font used for the entered text (I tried changing this in Object Manger but it didn't make any difference?)

Also is there a way of changing the appearance of the text entry boxes?  I'd prefer a little grey box of something less intrusive?

Thank you,

Kim

    I am sorry, but never found a way to change the format of the FIB blank boxes. Strange is the fact that if you use Dropdown list instead of User input, the selected text will keep the same formatting as the rest of the sentence. There is no way to style the box itself.

    This is one of the reasons I never use this type of question, but replace it by a custom question where I use Text Entry Boxes for the Blanks. Not only do you have more styling options for TEB's, but each of them can have a score, which means you have 'partial scoring' for this slide as well.

    Another alternative is by using the Scrolling Text Interaction. However that is a static interaction, which measn you cannot assign a score directly, you need to use variables and advanced/shared actions.
