Inserting line breaks in a variable in Captivate 2017
Hello!
I was wondering if there was a way to insert line breaks into a variable that is then posted in a text field?
I tried everything mentioned here for an older version of Captivate, to no avail: Discussion | eLearning | Page 2346895
What I want to do:
I have a complex activity that I want to give feedback on. It is a conversation simulation, where the user has multiple possible actions he can undertake. Every one of those actions can be successful, failed, and sometimes partially successful. I want the feedback slide to include the feedback per failed and partially successful actions, but not for the successful ones. In this way, the feedback is intelligently built line per line with only the pertinent information.
If I cannot create a variable that will basically concatenate all of those lines of feedback into a variable, I only see 2 solutions
1- Create every possible feedback for all sets of possibilities, and use the Change State action to give the feedback text field appropriate to the learner's set of actions. This would be bery tedious, and somewhat error-prone.
2- Give feedback for all actions, even the successful ones, with one separate variable for every line of feedback, so that I can have the feedback text field look like this:
$$Var_Feedback_Line_1$$
$$Var_Feedback_Line_2$$
$$Var_Feedback_Line_3$$
$$Var_Feedback_Line_4$$
$$Var_Feedback_Line_5$$
I'm not sure what I should do from here. What are your suggestions?
