Remembering a users actions if course completed in multiple instances
I have a course that consists of around 30 tutorials and an assessment. I've created the tutoirals as seperate projects that the main course then links out to. The assessment is hosted in this original course file as well so that it's interactions can be fed back to our LMS (Totara moodle).
To help users keep track of what sections they've compeleted I've created a menu screen that they're returned to at the end of each module (see below).
Currently I've got it set up so that the advanced actions that launch the tutorials also show the hidden green images on this screen. This works ok, but if you close the course down and then return to it the images are all hidden again.
Any tips on a straight forward way of getting this to work so that this information is not lost. I'll probably play around with using user variables to see if they are stored along with the bookmarking and will report back if successful.
Thanks in advance
Rob
Hi NickGG,
Curious what kind of LMS you have? We have Scorm 1.2 (Meridian).
I have created CBT much like yours with hidden images that when the user completes they "show" through Advanced Actions etc... My client has requested that the user should be able to log in from ANY computer so the widget would not help me as it stores it as a cookie on the user computer. But it seems your LMS allows it to store on the LMS so that no matter where the user logs in from, the items they have completed or triggered are stored.
Am I correct in understanding that is what your LMS is doing? If so, I'm so excited I can't stand it!
Thank you!

Select user action without opening the form
Environment is: LiveCycle ES2.5 Turnkey install Express Mode. Windows, JBoss, MySQL.
Browser IE w/ Reader-X.
At a User Task, it has a few User Actions (such as "Approve", "Reject"),
how do I allow the user to activate/select one of those actions (while he is in the WorkSpace) without forcing him to open the form?
I remember those User Actions used to show up in the To-Do list's "card", but somehow I don't see them anymore.
What do I need to do to get them show up in the "Card" ?
TIAI found it. It's under the "List" view, not on the "Card".... I thought it was on the Card in previous version...

Populate User Name in Certificate of Course Completion
In CP4, I am using a AS2 version Certificate of Course Completion. For populating the Name line, I cannot figure out the pop-up message's directions for doing that function -- how do I do that? I did create a user variable within a text entry box to record a user's name and use that user variable text box to show the name on certain pages.
Hi there
As Lilybiri pointed out, you need to use that variable. But things aren't as straightforward as they may seem. I found myself initially struggling with it.
Here are some notes I jotted down that may help:
Click Project > Actions and define a variable named v_Name. (Pay attention to case. v_name probably won't work. V_NAME probably won't work either - this is script and script is usually very persnickety with case!)
Insert a slide with a Text Entry Box early on in the project.
Click the Options tab and configure the TEB so it doesn't validate.
Click the Advanced tab and associate the TEB with the v_Name variable created in the first step. (This is where I got stuck. I was trying to name the TEB v_Name instead of associating it)
From there it is pretty straightforward.
Cheers... Rick

I have outlook 2013 and am trying to add an exchange 2010 multi-tenant account.
I have created a new profile.
I select Manual setup or additional server types
Then select Microsoft Exchange Server or compatible service
I enter the server settings. But the following error is returned when i click check name
"The action cannot be completed. The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. outlook must be online or connected to complete this action"
I have tried selecting more settings, selecting security, and then selecting the option:- Always propt for logon credentials.
But the same error is still returned
I tried deselecting the option Encrypt data between Microsoft outlook and Microsoft Exchange
But still continue to get the same error.
Reading from other forums I have tried restarting the Microsoft Exchange Address book service under services on the exchange server.
But this did not help either
i am able to access the email accout via outlook web access. I am also able to add the email account to my iphone with the server details and it adds fine onto my iphone but cannot add it to outlook 2013.
any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Rehan MiahHi,
This issue may occur when the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders registry key does not contain all of the required data. Specifically, these problems occur if the
AppData string value is missing from this registry key.
NOTE: The \User Shell Folders key also contains a string value called
Local AppDatawhich is different from the value called AppData. The value that causes this problem (if it is missing) is the
AppData value.
To resolve this issue, import the User Shell Folders registry key from a working Windows User Profile.
For more information, please refer:

Hope this helps.

I have looked in the registry and Appdata is not missing it has the following value "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming" also Local AppData is there with the following value "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local" i do not have a working machine to import the user shell
folders registry key so any other advice would be useful.
thanks
Rehan Miah
In order to test what you suggested i created a windows 7 virtual machine installed outlook 2003 however i also get the error on the virtual machine that i have created.
any further suggestions would be a great help. -

How can we make the Retake Quiz button only appear when user reenters the course?
In a Captivate 8 Quiz, we need to force the user to close the course (so attempts are captured by the LMS) from the Quiz Results page. The Retake Quiz button cannot show at this time. However, when the learner reenters the course from the LMS, the bookmarking brings the user to the Results page again. We need a Retake Quiz button to only show when the user reenters the course, not on Quiz completion. Disabling the bookmarking disables the reporting of attempts. Does anyone know a way to make that happen or a workaround?
Have a look at my blog post:

URL iView - Open in new window - User Action Independent
Hello Experts,
What has been configured:
I have built an I URL iview and set its paramater to open in a new window. I have assigned the iview to a role. I have also assigned a quicklink to the iview
Name: xyz
quick link: xyz
quick link url: https://<domain>/irj/portal/xyz
What has been tested:
When I log in to the portal using the test user ID and click (user action) on xyz the destination URL pops up in a new window as expected.
When I access the iview via the quick link it loads the destination URL in the same portal window (no pop up)
What do I need:
We will be using the quick link to get to SAP portal from another legacy portal and I want to hit the target URL as soon as I access the quick link without being taken to the portal page in which the target URL content is rendered. I also do not want to have the user click on the/a link to navigate to the target URL.
Things as they stand:
The destination URL is hitting a standalone WD ABAP object which is not hosted in SAP portal content. The SAP portal has to be used because the logon ticket issued by the portal is also used to login to the server hosting the WD ABAP.
Please let me know if you think this is something that can be achieved.
Many thanks,
PrashanthHi,
2. It is not possible to hide it completely or disable it. Give this a try:
Create a Static HTML page and create a link in that which will take you to quick link page/iview.
or you can create a custom application which will call the application underlying the quicklink on click of a link.
3. For removing the History, Back and Forwards links in Page Title Bar, follow the below:
In Portal navigate to Content Administration - Portal Content - Content Provided by SAP - End User Content - Standard Portal Users - Open the Default Framework Page
With the Framework Page - you will find Page Title Bar iView - Open the iview and go to iView Property
Show Back/Forward Links and Show History List by default this setting is set to Yes. change teh setting to No and you will not be seeing those in the page title bar.
NOTE: If you make this change it is applicable to all other pages and iViews. So be cautious before making the change.
Hope this helps.

I'm very interested in using the capabilities of Adobe LiveCycle Process Management for my project, however I have one rather large concern... I hope someone here can tell me whether there's a way to address it.
Since I work for the Government of Canada, I have to meet certain requirements relating to bilingualism of the user interface. It's my understanding that the Workspace portion of LiveCycle has already has support for French.
But what about the design of my processes? How can I display text to a user in the language of their choice when they're interacting with my processes? ... in particular, I'm thinking about the process name, task names, and user actions.
I hope that this is possible without too much pain. I imagine this must be a pretty common requirement!
Thanks in advance to all who respond.You can completely change the content of whole pdf by using "renderPDFForm" operation under service "FormsService". in this operation there is Template category where you can set the Locale.
And if you need to change the other workspace options like Complete, Save as Draft , you can then import workspace ui project and then change apppropriate values.
Thanks,

Certificate of Course Completion - Recording Score Incorrectly
In CP4, I have the widget Certificate of Course Completion working, except for recording correctly whether the user has passed or failed. For one CP course module, I have one quiz question with 9 questions, 10 points assigned per question. In Preferences > Pass or Fail, I have ticked 80 points or more to pass. When I publish the course, take the quiz by answering 9 out of 10 correctly, the Certificate of Course Completion shows "22.22" points and a "Fail" -- what am I missing to have a course grade show correctly?? See screenshot image...
Hello,
What script version are you using? AS2 or AS3? If you can do your project in AS2, the developers at Captivate found it was their error and provided a solution (see the attachment) for AS2. The following are the instructions to use it in your Captivate 4 project:
Here’s how you should be using the widget:
1.Save the “certificate correction AS2.swf” in your machine locally.
2.Go to the slide where you want to insert you widget.
3.In Captivate go to Insert->Widget->Browse for “certificate correction AS2.swf”.
4.In the widget dialog go to Options->Display for “Rest of Project”.
5.Preview or Publish the project.
It ended up working great for my project! Please let me know if you have further questions.

How to record user action?
Dear All,
I am trying to build a performance testing tool like jmeter. I want to know how jmeter or any HTTP performance tool records user action. I don't know how to write the action recording code. If anybody knows please help me out.
The following are the logic behind the jmeter action recording
1. Turn on the proxy (HTTP in this case). Jmeter starts listening to HTTP traffic to/from the specified URL. It basically acts like a sniffer for the traffic between your client (the browser) and the server IP address.
2. User starts performing his business process (the activities/requests to the server).
3. When a request is sniffed/captured by the tool, it immediately creates a code to send the same request (basically an HTTP GET/POST method created).
4. At the same time it monitors the response from the server and creates a checking code for verifying that the response obtained is correct (This is used further by the tool when we run the test). The response includes the complete HTML data including the Header and Body sections.
5. All the requests and corresponding responses are captured by the tool and the corresponding code generated automatically.
6. Once the recording ends, it puts together these snippets to create a complete code which could be further modified by the users so that they can run it in a multi-threaded environment.
7. Users run the code specifying the number of users (basically threads) to perform a load test on the server. (The code generated would be thread-safe so that there are no overlaps)
Thanks & regardsSo why not using Jmeter and make you own modification when required
This is the great benefit of open source community

Hi
I am having problems with repeated user actions when labview is in the midst of runnning. More specifically i have some buttons that say take some processing time when activated and while the computer is processing it if I press on the button again (once or a few times) nothing happens. However once the processing of the first user action is finished then the second, third and etc... press of the button gets process, even though it had happened a while ago. I was wondering whether i could prevent this.
I have noticed that this occurance happens under a couple of cases. The first is what i explained above while the second i have noticed when I have placed an event structure within a case sturcture. The lock front panel options is off for the event structure but if the user does the event structure while the case sturcture is not satsified nothing happens ....which is good but then if the case stucture becomes true then the process inside the event structure takes place eventhough the user action did not happen again. To illustrate this example please take a look at the attached vi. Try pressing "mouse down" in the string 4 times and then turn the case structure true and you will see the numeric indicator increment 4 times.
It seems the user actions are saved in memory until labview is free to carry them out. What i was wondering is whether i can prevent this. The first case (paragraph) is more important than the second to me since i have able to avoid the second so far.
thanks

eventstuctureincasestructure.vi 14 KBI am not completely clear on what you are trying to do but it sounds as though you are performing action inside an event case which takes longer than the time between two events. (My rule of thumb: Do not put anything into an event case which would take longer than tens of milliseconds to execute.) When that occurs I take it as an indication that the action to be performed should be moved to a parallel loop outside the loop containing the event structure.
If you have events for Start some Action, Cancel the Action, and Stop, the event loop would contain only the three cases. Inside each case would be the Enqueue function. Put into a queue the command created by the user action (Start, Cancel, Stop), perhaps as the value of a typedefed enum, and exit the case to wait for the next event.
The parallel loop would implement the Actions. It would probably be a state machine with states: Idle, Perform the Action, and Stop as well as any other states needed. It would sit in the idle state until a Dequeue function received a command from the event loop. The Perform the Action state would need to be designed in such a way that the Cancel command would be received and acted upon promptly.
Look at examples and design patterns for queued state machines and Producer/Consumer pattern.

LMS / LSO - Course Completion Specifications
Can someone confirm where you specify course completion specifications for a WBT. I guess it is to be specified at D / Course Type level, against "Minimum" in Completion specifications tab. I guess it also depends on the Learning Objects. If the above is right, and if the minimum field has a zero, would it mark course completion as 100% even if the learner has accessed it for a minute only. Appreciate expert opinion on this Pl
MattMatt,
SAP does deliver configuration by delivery method, but you are free to change this (add/delete/reorder infotypes as needed by delivery method). This is done via the IMG. Under Learning Solution>Basic Settings>Dialog Control-->Current Settings, you will find Maintain Personnel Actions. Here you will find the various actions for the different delivery methods, and you can review/modify as needed. Course Completion Specifications IT should be already configured for you for delivery methods like WBT and online test.

Customising the "Action has been completed" page
Does anyone know how to customise the page that is shown to a user when they go back to a completed activity?
By default you have a white page with the info picture and the words " Action has been completed"
I was wondering if anyone knows how to customise this completed page so that it shows something a bit nicer? (a static HTML page would be great to put in its place)
We're on EP7 SP14 if that helps...Hi Danny,
This can be achieved by using the "Callable Object for Display". if you are not aware there are two types of callable objects.
1. Callable Objects for Execution (The one that we use mostly) - this callable object is called by the GP runtime when then user is executing the step.
2. Callable Objects for Display - this callable object will be called when the execution for the step is already complete. And during later stage user comes back and clicks on some previous step.
You can also check following link for more info
