Hi Bhupendra and welcome to our community

Nothing like that exists in Captivate. The only thing that comes close is the Matching Question slide, where you may click and drag the answers.

I'm thinking you will need to develop a custom Widget using Flash or Swish if you wish to accomplish this. Fellow Adobe Community Expert Paul Dewhurst has such a widget. You may see it in action at this link.

Cheers... Rick

Hi

Thanks for your reply.
I would like to know one more thing. I have made my shell template in flash and my content or interactive file in captivate.
I want to activate particular windows or certain actions from the template for these files.
Please tell me how can i perform this task.

Thanks
Bhupendra

Hi Bhupendra,

Sounds like you know Flash so what you want to do is pretty easy. First of all there are Captivate variables ( here - thanks to Paul) that you can use in Flash to control the movie. That means you can create a drag and drop then drop it into the Captivate movie as an animation.

These same variables should help with controlling actions and stuff too.

hi there

thanks for ur reply

i have one more issue. Please tell me how to pass the scores from the assessment done in the captivate to the flash template as i have to merge the results with some other assessment done in the flash.

i have done this because captivate have limited amount of assessements. so please help me how to track scores as it is treating each captivate assessement as new project and i am not able to track the scores.

regards

Captivate's internal variables for scoring are not publicly documented, so you're pretty much on your own if you want to mix Captivate and non-Captivate assessments.

The closest I've seen to anyone figuring out what they are was listed in this thread:
