Adobe Captivate 2 -  Sample Quiz

Hi folks,
I have just posted a sample quiz created in Adobe Captivate 2
on my Blog. All
comments welcome.
Regards,
Mark

That's happened to me too, Mark. I know there is a lesson in
this, but I've always been a slow learner. LOL!
Still, its a nice blog ... though I've never understood the
concept of a blog (as opposed to a web-site).

  • Adobe Captivate 4 Quiz(Matching)  Drop down list font size too small.

    Hi,
    We are using Adobe Captivate 4.  Quiz (Matching).  Exported to SWF.
    The drop down list fonts are small. We want to use bigger font in the drop down list, but cant find a way.
    Any one can help?
    Thanks

    Hello,
    Formatting Question slides in CP is sometimes a pain. I cannot give you a proper answer, but it would be great if you filed a feature request to the team to have more control over the styles used in this dropdown list (link is in the main page of this forum). If we are many to ask for such enhancements, it will get higher on the priority list.
    As you probably discovered, in the Properties of the dropdown lists in the Matching Question slide you can only change font and color, not font size. My proper workaround is choosing a font that gives the best result, some fonts really look bigger than others. This is not always consistent with the styles in the rest of the movie, but I adapt all the Text in Question slides to this choosen font.
    Sorry not to be able to help you. Question slides are in the folder, but in SWC-format, and I cannot open those files, even though I have Flash CS4 installed. Perhaps a Flash-wise guy will pop in to help you.

  • Adobe Captivate 5 - Quiz stopping after leaving question slide to go backwards

    I'm trying to force Captivate to do something I think it wasn't designed to do - Force the user to get 100% on a quiz. I've set the attempts to 'infinite' and customized the retry messages with little bits of information for the user. Currently, they can try the question as many times as they want until they get it correct but they cannot leave the slide even though there is a 'back' button available! I need them to be able to leave the question slide after attempting to answer the question, sort back through the information slides to learn the information, and return to the question slide to answer it correctly. The quiz stops entirely if you go backwards, then attempt to get back to the question slides.
    Forcing them to retake the entire quiz is not an option as this will likely frustrate the user, especially as one of our presentations includes 100 questions. Even setting the failure levels to 3 is not good because eventually, someone will miss the question entirely and have to retake the quiz.
    Any suggestions? Can this be done?
    I have a short demo with all my settings if anyone wants to see it.

    Hello,
    Yep, you are bumping onto the limitations of the current default Quizzes. If you allow multiple attempts on Question level, the user will not be able to leave the slide without exhausting those attemps or having a correct answer. If you allow multiple attempts on Quiz level, the Retake button will delete all answers and the user has to redo the whole quiz.
    The only way I found was by creating my own question slides. I even succeeded in making Quiz Retake function only for incorrect answers. This is however a lot of work and when I read the amount of questions you are providing...

  • Quiz in Adobe captivate???Please help???

    I am trying to create a 5 question quiz for customers at a tradeshow. customers walk by the computer, enter their name, answer the quiz, submits it. once it is submitted, it displays the screen where a new customer has to enter his name again and start answering quiz...same process..
    in the end i should be able to pull out  a report, correct answers by name....
    is it possible in adobe captivate????????

    Yes and no.  YOu can create a form slide that allows users to enter information and answer quiz questions.  Their entered details and scores for questions can be captured using variables.  However, Captivate is more designed for submitting this kind of information to a Learning Management System.
    In order to get what you want for your tradeshow kiosk, you would need to have a custom  database solution of some kind that received the information from your course and entered each different person's details and scores as records.  Captivate doesn't do this for you.  You'll need the services of a web developer, ActionScript 3, or JavaScript developer (and possibly all of them).

  • Have Adobe Captivate 6 (not interested in upgrading)- Struggling to publish a simulation in a format that QMP can pickup - QMP needs a qml file. previous versions had no problem all had tick boxes for QMP in the Quiz - Reporting Settings but this version

    Have Adobe Captivate 6 (not interested in upgrading)- Struggling to publish a simulation in a format that QMP can pickup - QMP needs a qml file. previous versions had no problem all had tick boxes for QMP in the Quiz - Reporting Settings but this version does not have. If i publish to Flash QMP does not see the file.

    Re:
    The quiz review button is inconsistent - sometimes it shows the ticks and crosses other times it doesn't - did you find a solution? I'd dearly like to be able to tidy up the ticks!

  • Adobe Captivate 6 problem with Review area text on Quiz results page

    Hi,
    I am using Adobe Captivate 6 and I have a test at the end of my project with the built in 'Quiz results page' at the end.
    However, the standard 'review area' provided always seems to play up for me. I have changed the 'quiz results messages' through the preferences and changed the font of the review area, but everytime I play my project the message displayed is in a different font that I did not set and the size is so large that the sentence goes off the screen. It has done this on numerous projects.
    I have changed the font of the review area and it shows up on my normal view, but everytime I preview the project or publish it, the font changes back to a strange default.
    Does anyone know how I can fix this?
    Thank you.

    Hannah,
    That is a very well-known bug in the last Captivate versions... if you screen these forums you'll find multiple threads complaining about it. Some fonts will work, I think Calibri works (not all styles however) and all the other fonts revert to Times New Roman. I'm a bit puzzled that you call it a 'strange default'.

  • How to get a quiz developed with a timer in Adobe captivate 8

    I want to develop a quiz with 10 questions. So those who answer max correct answers with less time should be announced as winner
    Current version 8 doesn’t show the option to publish file into exe.
    Also I have few issues with the current package I prepared.
    Not sure how to get the timer
    enabled in the package.
    Need to add logo on all slides
    3. How to add hyperlink
    for Adobe Registration.
       Some experts please help me

    Well, first, I believe if you update CP8 to the latest version:
    Adobe Captivate Help | Adobe Captivate 8 patch
    Then the .exe option is restored to Captivate.
    But that probably won't help your other request.
    For Captivate itself to know if someone's score is best, it has to know what all the other users' scores are.
    How will it find that out? (especially as an .exe which is going to likely have even a harder time getting info from the web)
    The best way to do what you want is to use an LMS with that 'leaderboard' feature (i.e ExpertusOne)...so it can evaluate everyone's recorded scores and show the best.
    And even that would probably need a hack as I *assume* it basis 'best' on the score, not on the time.
    So even if you could do a timer in Captivate, it has no way of knowing other users' scores nor a way to evaluate which is 'best' even if it did.
    (you might be able to work that all in with extensive JS hacking?)
    Fortunately, the logo is pretty easy - put the logo image on the master slide(s) you use in the piece.
    What sort of Adobe Registration do you mean?

  • Adobe captivate 8.0 quiz reporting

    In Adobe captivate 4, there was email reporting. In Adobe captivate 8, Is this feature still available ? How do I do the quiz reporting without any external app or LMS ? How can I have my results e-mailed or stored in the database ?

    I have found the JavaScript API for this..
    It can be done by the following,
       var cp = document.Captivate;
       var totalPoints = cp.cpEIGetValue('m_VarHandle.cpQuizInfoTotalQuizPoints');
       var pointsScored = cp.cpEIGetValue('m_VarHandle.cpQuizInfoPointsscored');

  • Adobe Captivate 5.5 - Quiz Results

    I am using Adobe Captivate 5.5 and have the latest updates installed.  I have an Internal Server configured for LMS and under the quiz reporting preferences I have "Percent" selected to report to the LMS, but when I launch the Quiz Results Analyzer and generate a report the "Percent" is not shown.  If I select "Score" under the quiz reporting preferences the Quiz Results Analyzer will display the score. 
    How can I review the "Percent" using the Quiz Results Analyzer?
    Thanks,

  • Capture User Information from Adobe Captivate Quiz

    I created an Adobe Captivate (version 5.5) interactive training, which includes a 10 question quiz. Unfortunately I can't seem to figure out the best way to get the user to submit their name, location, and email along with the quiz. Without this I just seem to be getting the quiz results without any identifying information. I tried adding a "short answer" slide, but then I seem to have to create several of those slides just to get one piece of identifying information at a time. Is there an easy way to get the user's identifying information on a particular slide before they submit their results?
    (As a side note I'm having a tough time even getting the Post Results working in the first place. But I'm thinking it might be better to ask that as a separate question since it's not necessarily related to this one.)

    Hi there,
    Thanks for reaching Adobe Community.
    You can create a username and password on the Captivate slide through Advanced actions.

  • Generate Report Troubles with Adobe Captivate Quiz Results Analyzer

    I'm new to Captivate 5 and am trying to utilize the Adobe Captivate Quiz Results Analyzer.
    I've enabled report for my project to Acrobat.com and configured as instructed in the online help.  The Post Result button appears on the Summary page and appears to work for the two colleagues taking the quiz.  But when I click the Generate Report button in Adobe Captivate Quiz Results Analyzer, I get the message "Data is not present on local file system, downloading course data," but nothing occurs - no course data appears from the colleagues who are helping me test the quiz.
    I'm able to sign in to the Quiz Results Analyzer and it does display the organization, department and course name, but no course data (see image below).
    What am I doing incorrectly that keeps this from generating a course report?
    Any help will be deeply appreciated.

    Vish,
    Your solution worked at first.  I went in, took the course, and then went into Analyzer and was able to Generate Report and look at my stats.  However, I had a colleague take the course.  She did and posted the results and received a "successful" posting message.  Then, I went back into Analyzer and clicked the Generate Report button to see how the system worked when there was new learner data.  A "Checking for new data" played for a half hour before I finally gave up.
    I know that you were able to reproduce this issue where in clicking the Generate Report a second time brings up the loading animation that stays forever and that you were investigating the issue, but I thought I should post here just in case anyone else has a solution.
    Thanks,
    Jeff 

  • Identifying Questions in Adobe Captivate Quiz Results Analyser

    Hi All,
    We have seen people requesting for identifying the Question from with in Adobe Captivate Quiz Results Analyser. In what way do you think Question needs to be reperesented within Adobe Captivate Quiz Results Analyser?
    Will it useful if we show the actual thumbnail of the question itself?
    Or just showing the Question text will suffice?
    Thanks,
    Vikram

    Maybe you'd be better off turning off the shuffling of answers (given that it fouls up the reliability of the variable representing what you want) and use Question Pools instead.
    This would allow you to get some randomisation of the questions (which is what the answer shuffling is sort of trying to accomplish) but you'd be tracking actual questions.  You could have a number of variations of the same question in the pool.
    Does that get you any closer to your goal?

  • On Adobe Captivate Quiz

    Hi,
    I want to create a quiz as seen in the following site: http://science.howstuffworks.com/invisibility-cloak-quiz1.htm?answerId=140312 in which after each question the answer is given immediately. Is it possible to create with same approach in Adobe Captivate 5.5?
    Your help will be greatly appreciated.
    with thanks and regards,
    Krishna

    Captivate's standard multiple choice question type requires the user to click a Submit button after making their choice, at which point a Sucess or Failure feedback caption can immediately provide text-based information to the learner.  These feedback captions can take many forms.  To replicate the type of feedback shown in your example course, you would need to use a transparent feedback caption type. 
    In fact, the example course from your link has to reload the page to show feedback. Captivate courses can do it a lot quicker because the content is already loaded for either success or failure feedback.
    However, one difference with your example course is that it gives feedback as soon as the user selects any one of the choices.  They are not using a Submit button.  If you wanted to get closer to this model of interaction then you would need to create your quiz question on normal Captivate slides using radio button widgets instead of the multi-choice question type.
    So you are certainly not short of options with Captivate.
