Captivate 8 Drag drop - Many to Many as correct answers? via type.

Captivate 8 Drag drop - Many to Many as correct answers? i.e. via type grouping of drag image objects
I've hit a brick wall. I've been testing this drag drop quiz feature via the Interaction Wizard and I've found that drag items assigned to the same type grouping, will only associate with one single target drop object. Is this a limitation of the drag drop wizard or a limitation of Captivate 8?
I did successfully create a simple many to many drag drop when every drag item was unique, however when duplicating drag items and assigning them to the same type, it seems all the same type want to only have one single valid drop target.
For example, creating an electronic circuit board quiz, I might have 3 resistors of the same value ( i.e. drag images of resistors ), that I want to be accepted by multiple drop targets ( i.e. rectangles that make up the circuit board ) that will accept a resistor drop item of that same value, as a valid drop item. In essence any of those 3 resistors of the same value, can be dropped in any of the circuit grid 3 cells and all still be correct. I can't seem to make this work, when those 3 resistor images are grouped into one type in the Drag drop Wizard. It only allows them to point to one drop container.
Thanks,
David

Devraj,
Actually I think I used your first method. I had about 10 drag sources, some of the same type and some not and 25 drop targets of the same type to deal with.
The approach I used was to group some of the Drag Source Objects ( like common parts such as multiple wire connector images, 4 in total ) but not group the Drop Target objects ( 25 rectangular shapes that make up the circuit board grid ). That did work successfully. I'm slowly getting to understand the way this drag and drop object type grouping works.
My next test is to Group the Drop Targets by Drop type that can accept the corresponding Drag type. Thus for my 5 x 5 grid of rectangles objects, the drop rectangle objects that are designated for a given wire connector, would be assigned a drop type of that wire connector. If this can work, it could save even more time, when setting the correct answers. i.e. I would just set the correct answer as a drag type and drop type relationship. I think this could make it easier if I had a really big grid of drop rectangles, as I won't have to specify every single drag drop object relationship.
Unfortunately so far this method is not working. I keep getting the Incorrect Answer message when testing, even though I know it's the correct drag drop answer. I know the drag source group type works, but the drop target group type is not working in the correct answer association with the drag group type.

Drag/Drop inside SWFLoader not working

I've got a Flex application that loads a secondary Flex app via SWFLoader. The secondary app uses drag/drop operations to rearrange components, delete them etc. The secondary app works perfectly while it is running by itself (eg. not 'embedded' via SWFLoader into the main app).
Once I load it into the main application using a SWFLoader drag/drop operations no longer work correctly. All other events seems to work fine. It is only drag/drop that don't always work right.
Is there something I am missing that would cause this issue? I'm thinking there may be a property I need to set on the SWFLoader. Hopefully someone can help.

Thanks Alex.
I did as you say, and DragManager is in the report file in several places. Also, Drag/Drop does work inside of SWFLoader for the TileList in the loaded app, and even somtimes as it should as far as the drag/drop operation I am talking about, but not always.
It seems to work sometimes and not others. When it does work it is not nearly as smooth as when I run the app as a "stand alone" and I never see the drag proxy while dragging inside of SWFLoader.
Is there anything else that could be causing these issues?

How can I show the correct answers in a quiz on Adobe Presenter 10?

Hi all.
I'm newer on Adobe Presenter.
I've finished all questions on the quiz, but I like to show the correct answer after the user select a wrong answer and submit it.
I've tried many thing and the correct answer isn't displayed.
Thanks.
Rafael.

The correct answers are displayed after the quiz is completed and the user Reviews the quiz. If you want the correct answer to be revealed to the user in the quiz, then you will need to customize the feedback messages to state the correct answer. They are just text boxes on the slides, so you should be able to easily add text to them.

Manual sync drag & drop with many playlists

Ok I do not want to automatically sync my itunes with either my iPod or iPhone - end of story. I have 1000's of songs. I also organize my music by creating playlists, not just by artist but also DJ playlists. I have more single songs then entire albums. For years I've found the drag & drop highly irritating as it's the only way - that I know - to put a playlist manually on external devices. What I do instead is use a bullet or spaces before my playlist so they're at the top of the iTunes list but this is very tedious and and time consuming. I then have to remove the bullets/spaces once I've finished.
Is there something I'm missing here? With every update of iTunes I'm hoping something as simple as "sync selected playlist to external device" in some form will show up. What's the story? Why is something so convenient and simple not available?

Agreed!!! If I'm missing something here please let me know but to manually drag and drop play lists is not an option for me. I arrange all my music in play lists (as mentioned above). I need a way of safely backing up the lists in case they get lost / damaged / accidentally erased (I can't tell you how frustrating it is to hit the delete button by mistake - to lose a play list when all I wanted to do was delete a single track).......
Currently my ipod is my only way off backing up the lists. I'm also constantly updating these lists, so to manually go and back up each play list would take weeks.....
Backing up the data list (XML) wont do either. I need a way of backing the play list and actual tracks that are included in the list. I know a lot of people who share this concern.
Apple, please help....

Adobe Captivate how to display number of attempts in Drag Drop Interaction slide

Adobe Captivate how to display number of attempts in Drag Drop Interaction slide
i have set attempts to 3
on each failure i want to show on slide how many attempts used
and how many correct answers

Hi Sreekanth,
You understanding is correct. But,it is not even necessary to show the correct sources on correct targets along with the feedback... the correct option numbers in incorrect feedback will do.
reg point number 3, if I revisit the slide, the feedback are still displayed. For example, in this case, I added a correct feedback, but when I revisit the slide, the feedback was still appearing. So I added this action "On Enter" to "Hide" this success caption. So that is why i told specifically that none of the feed backs should be there when i revisit the slide.
Sorry Srikanth - I am not familiar with the advanced actions or variables. I have just used some from referring the examples from net. that's all

How can I allow a learner to review a created Drag and Drop Quiz to show the learner their incorrect/correct answers?

Captivate 8: I have created an assessment with two multiple choice question slides and eight drag and drop question slides. After the learner views their score, I would like them to be able to review all of their answers to see where errors were made. Currently, the review quiz only shows their answers and the correct answers for Multiple choice question slides. Ideally, I would like a review of the drag and drop question slides where the incorrect choices are outlined in red or something to this effect. I appreciate any insight and suggestions!

Sorry, D&D is not a normal question slide and I can only recommend logging a feature request. I would really like to be able to choose whether an interaction is reset or not, because this problem doesn't exist only for D&D but for all learning interactions as well.

LR 2.1 & 2.0 ~ DRAG & DROP not working correctly with photos when moving, applying keywords

Today this issue started, originally in 2.0, updated to 2.1 and issue continues.
Issue: DRAG & DROP feature with mouse (or pad on laptop) will select multiple photos, (with CTRL & SHIFT key as typical with Windows machines)but when I try to move them to a different folder, or drop them onto a keyword, it will not work.
Specifically, I select two photos to move to a different folder, the selection work, but when I try to "grab" the selected photos, Lightroom defaults to One Photo, and it will not grab it to move it. However, I can "right click" on the intended folder and can select "move selected photos to folder" and that works. This issue also applys to assigning keywords, and I would assume other similiar actions. I should note, that I can "rotate", assign "labels", "stars", and Keywords from Keyword sets, it just happens with the "Drag & Drop" feature.
Help
The feature works correctly in other Windows programs, so I'm sure it's related to Lightroom and not the mouse.
I have a Windows Vista machine, 3GB RAM 160GB HD, ~ 75% free space, AMD Turion X2 Dual Core 70 Processor. Everything has worked fine up until this morning.
Prior to upgrading to 2.1, I optimized my Catalogue. Everything seems to work fine except this feature.
Help

Drag by the actual image area of the thumbnail, not the surrounding 'fake slide' cell.
That's a feature of Lightroom's grid view. Clicking on image area of thumbnail keeps the multiple selection and makes the image clicked the primary select. Clicking on the outer thumbnail area deselects all but the active image.

Drag and Drop Smart Shapes Not Scoring Correct

I have 6 smart shapes as drag sources and 6 smart shapes as drop targets. All of them are the exact same size, but I can't get them to recognize a correct answer using an absolute snap behavior and a 20 pixel hit padding. There is more than enough space around each target so there is no overlapping going on. It continues to show a failure when all of the drag sources are correctly placed on the targets.

I checked your interaction and here are my observations. I have also added how I went about testing, so that you can probably repeat the same when face a similar issue. My approach is just my way, and not necessarily the best way.
It was clear that the interactions were not accepting your correct answers. So, to identify which "correct" answers were considered incorrect by the interaction:
      a) I created a variable "CheckAns" and displayed it in a text caption.
      b) In the Acceptable Drag Sources of each Drop Target (select the drop target, click Accept.. in the Drop Target accordion), I executed the following advanced action for the correct combination.
             i) Increment CheckAns by 1
            ii) Assign cpCmndGotoFrame with cpInfoCurrentFrame
     For example, the Vision drop target accepts all sources. I executed the advanced action only for Vision source. Thus, when the Vision source is dropped on the target, the variable value in the text caption I created in 1.a) increments by 1.
Result: When I took a preview of this version, I noticed that Vision and Integrity sources were not considered as the right answers even when I place them on the right targets, probably because I was not placing the sources in the right positions. (I played around your targets before this step. So, when you test, this might happen for some other objects.)
Next step was to identify the exact "right" position for these two sources. So, I enabled the On Hint caption for these objects. The On Hint caption appears only when you drag the source to the "acceptable" position of the drop target. To enable it, select the drop target, go to Drop Target accordion, and select the On Hint check box.)
Result: The On Hint caption appeared when I drag the source a bit too far from the actual Drop Target object. And, when I placed the source in that position, my CheckAns variable value increased by 1.
Conclusion: The issue is because of the position. It will be better (and perhaps more easier) to create this interactivity from scratch. Do not use the drop sources and targets from this interaction. Also, for Failure, I suggest you assign the "Go to next slide" action instead of Continue. This is just to ensure that the project moves to next slide and not necessarily the next frame (Continue command moves only next frame). Also, as a best practice, I strongly encourage you to use appropriate names for any objects in your project. For example, you can name Vision source object as Vis_Src. The Next button can be named "Next_Bt". When I opened your project, that is the first thing I did. It will be extremely useful when you are using these objects in advance actions. Imagine how difficult it will be if you want to hide the Next button on the last slide of your project, and you will see a huge list of buttons, named Button_1 to Button_127. Which button will you hide?
Additional info: I started a blank project. I created similar drop sources and targets (circles with outlines) and layout, and used only your success caption. Added the verification elements I mentioned above and everything worked fine.
Hope this helps.

Drag and drop correct answer window error#2032

Hi, when trying to create a drag and drop with multiple correct answer combinations I click on the correct answer option to open the correct answer window and the window that opens is empty except for a bar at the bottom saying Error #2032. I can't access the correct answer options because of this as the window is blank. Help please!

Hi there,
Are you trying to click on the 'Correct answer' button from Drag and Drop Panel? Can you please post a screenshot of the error window?
Thanks,

Drag and Drop with mulitiple drag sources but only one correct answer?

I've created two drag sources (in a Type group) for one drop target. I want to be able to drag only one or the other onto the drop target. I changed the correct answers from 2 to 1, but I can still drag both onto the drop target. Is there a way to reject the second drag source?
Is there a way to select the same drag sources and have the same situation for a different drop target?
Plus, if I have the drop target set to not visible, is there a way to change it to visible once a drag source is dropped on it?
Sorry for the newbie questions. Thanks for any help.

No, I made the target invisible, not the drag object.
I have sample text (a paragraph missing periods). I created an image file of the period (essentially, a dot within a square with the same color background as my slide). The reason I created the image (and not just a round filled shape) is because if I can get this to work, I'd like to use other punctuation mark images. I imported the period image and made 3 copies of it (4 separately named images). Two of the images (the drop targets) I placed where they belong in the sample paragraph and made them invisible. The other two images are visible and would be the drag sources. I want students to be able to choose either copy of the drag source and place them on either of the drop targets (no specific order, but only one being able to be dropped onto one target). With the correct answer, I'd like to make the target visible. In the drag settings, I unchecked "send back to original location" and then set it to absolute. This is so the student would be able to place the period in other areas of the sample paragraph (but not be able to "find" the active areas that would automatically pull them into place over the target. Sorry, I don't have access to the program at this minute, so I can't remember what the other setting was instead of absolute that "pulled" the drag source onto the target.) Anyway, if set to absolute, the dropped items do not line up properly (because they land where they were dropped, obviously). So, I'm looking for a way to then make the target (that was invisible) visible when one correct period is dropped onto it, plus then reject any other periods being dropped onto it.
I'm open to suggestions if there is a better way to do this.

3 anspruchsvolle Fragen zu Drag&Drop in Adobe Captivate 8

Leider komme ich bei drei Problemen nicht weiter und auch das Netz bietet keine zufriedenstellende Lösung.
Frage 1
Gibt es eine Möglichkeit, Zieh-Objekte beim Aufrufen des Quiz immer in zufälliger Reihenfolge/Anordnung aufzulisten?
Frage 2
Nachdem der User alle Ziehobjekte abgelegt und auf Submit geklickt hat, sollen die fehlerhaften Objekte rot umrandet werden. Wie geht das?
(Ich meine keine typische pauschale Fehlereinblendung á la "Falsch!", sondern eine rote Umrandung des Ziehobjekts!)
Frage 3
Gibt es die Möglichkeit, nach dem 2. Versuch einen Button “Lösungen anzeigen” einzublenden? Bei Bei Klick auf diesen sollen die Ziehobjekte in die richtigen Ablegeboxen fliegen.
Anbei eine Grafik, die das Ganze nochmal veranschaulicht.

Reseting a drag & drop game

Hello All:
I'm having trouble reseting a drag & drop game. It is a movie clip with two pages: start_pg and game_pg. On start_pg is a start button (start_btn) that goes to game_pg. On game_pg is button (end_btn) that goes back to start_pg. Both buttons share the same layer, so I made each invisible when not of its page. The game works fine, but when the end_btn is clicked, all movie clips that have been dropped, stay there.
How can I go back to start_pg and reset all movie clips to their original starting point?
// start game page
stop();
end_btn.visible=false;
start_btn.visible=true;
start_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goGame);
function goGame (Event:MouseEvent): void
gotoAndStop("game_pg");
// game page

event.target.parent.addChild(event.target);
startX = event.target.x;

function dropIt(event:MouseEvent):void {
event.target.stopDrag();
var myTargetName:String = "target" + event.target.name;
var myTarget:DisplayObject = getChildByName(myTargetName);
if (event.target.dropTarget != null && event.target.dropTarget.parent == myTarget){
event.target.width = 230;
event.target.height= 190;
m_txt.text = "Good Job!";
event.target.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, pickUp);
event.target.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, dropIt);
event.target.buttonMode = false;
event.target.x = myTarget.x;
event.target.y = myTarget.y;
counter++;
} else {
m_txt.text = "Try Again!";
event.target.x = startX;
event.target.y = startY;
event.target.width = 50;
event.target.height= 40;
if(counter == 4){
m_txt.text = "Congratulations, you matched all rivers correctly!";
pic_1.buttonMode = true;
pic_2.buttonMode = true;
pic_3.buttonMode = true;

Kglad:
All my movie clips are on stage. Does it make any difference?
I tried three options: 1) I didn't change the two functions and added the restore XY action to end_btn. It didn't work.
end_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goStart);
function goStart(Event:MouseEvent):void
restoreXY(MovieClip(root));
gotoAndStop("start_pg");
The second option. In each function I changed
the last part restoreXY(mc[obj]); to restoreXY(MovieClip(root)); (this didn't work)
The third option was adding the storeXY to my function pickUp (which is when all movie clips exist in their original position) and keeping the restore action in end_btn. Didn't work.
function pickUp(event:MouseEvent):void {
event.target.startDrag(true);
event.target.scaleX = 1.2;
event.target.scaleY= 1.2;
m_txt.text = "";
event.target.parent.addChild(event.target);
startX = event.target.x;
startY = event.target.y;
storeXY(MovieClip(root));
In all cases, I got errors in many lines such as
1120: Access of undefined property obj the scritp is if(mc[obj] is "MovieClip" && mc[obj].parent==mc){
Can you please tell where in my code I should put the storeXY and restoreXY(MovieClip(root));?
Thanks again for helping me.

No "Ringtones" tab and can't drag & drop ringtones into iTunes

I have an iPhone4 running OS4.3, using iTunes 10.2 on a Windows Vista PC. I used an iPhone app to create custom ringtones, and have followed the app's instructions to save the ringtones to my PC and then copy into iTunes. Two problems:
1) The instructions say to drag & drop the .m4r files into iTunes. I've seen this mentioned in other posts on this topic. When I try to do this, the files won't "drop". I see the "no" symbol (circle with line) when I hover over my music library.
2) The instructions say to click on my iPhone in iTunes, and then on the "Ringtones" tab along the top of the screen. I don't have a Ringtones tab. There's also no reference to Ringtones in the left navigation pane.
How do I correct this?
Thanks

!!! JUST DOWNGRADE YOUR ITUNES VERSION, AND USE THE OLDER ONE - THAT'S ALL. SORRY FOR ALL-CAPITAL LETTERS AND EXCLAMATION MARKS, - IT IS JUST OUT OF EXCITEMENT, AFTER HOURS OF SEARCHING AND THINKING ABOUT A SOLUTION !!!
Shalom all,
Our frustration and pain is over, for sure… With some help and hints from this forum I’ve found a precise solution to the above mentioned can’t-get-the-goddamned-ringtones-tab-to-appear-in-my-iTunes problem.
Now let me try and get up to the point:
The 10.5.2 version of iTune is worthless (at least, it’s 64-bit modification, which I’ve been using up to this point). By reading a few comments on your forum, I’ve quickly decided to try and downgrade to 10.4.1.10 version (seems to me, 64-bit), which can be downloaded from apple.com site with just a little extra-search.
By the way, I do have Windows 7 64-bit OS on my PC, and “Apple” warns that one MUST use 64-bit installation in my case…
One must uninstall previously installed 10.5.2 (if there used to be one, of course). In such a case, please, also uninstall a “Bonjour” program by “Apple” (don’t know what’s that, but you will not be able proceed any further with, as it was said in my case, higher version of “Bonjour” left behind).
After uninstalling those two abovementioned things, I have installed iTunes 10.4.1.10 , even without being asked for reboot by the end of the installation. But, alas, when I tried running iTunes, it failed with the complain about a “iTunes Library.itl” file (found in C:\Users\<My_User>\Music\iTunes). I’ve just renamed the file (could’ve been removed as well, of course) and restarted the iTunes. This time everything went smooth.
The rest of the story, I assume, you can imagine much better than me. Go to Edit->Preferences and tick “Ringtones”. After connecting the iPhone (well, probably one more iTunes restart will be required in this case, - not sure about that), we will get the “Ringtones” tab set also under the iPhone definition (see “DEVICES” in iTunes).
Next, create an .m4a file out of your favorite ringtone, move it to the Desktop, change the extension to a4r, add it back (drug-and-drop) to “Ringtones” tab at the iTunes LIBRARY. Then make some blessing, take a deep breath and… that’s pretty much done. One important thing not to forget before sync: click on your phone (under iTune’s DEVICES), and click on “Ringtones”, located right under the gorgeous :-) apple picture in the top middle of the iTunes window. Mark “Sync Ringtones” and “All Ringtones” (?) there, of course…
BTW, no need whatsoever to register your phone, - you can just postpone the registration...
Phew… Let’s hope I haven’t forget anything. Anyhow, the idea was to get rid of iTunes 10.5.2 as soon as possible, uninstall it together with “Bonjour” (say good bye to “Bonjour”  ), then install a good old iTunes 10.4.1.10, get over few problems and… The rest of the procedure - you know it by heart, by far better than me…
I’ve been struggling with the problem for less than a day (thanks to all of you, pals), but I can imagine there are still some poor pal chaps around…
Let us help them… Very unfortunately, English is not my mother tongue, as you can see… I wish, it would be different, but G-d decided other way… Please, (1) make some corrections and clarifications to this notes (I could've made it better, but in a crunch now, really), and also, (2) try spreading it among as many guys as possible… If you can pass this solution to “Apple” tech support, - it should be taken to consideration...
And I'll be waiting now for a generous job offer from that great company... :-)
Let me just wish you all a very Happy New Year...
Thank you all, dear friends, and do enjoy the best of your own FREE ringtones……
P.S.: iTunes 10.4.1 (64-bit) can be found here http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1427 , at the bottom of the page...
