Display selection of user variables later on in project - can't get advanced action to work

Hi all,
I'm working on a sales training with Captivate 5, based on PPT. I want to do the following, but can't figure out how to design the advanced actions to do it:
The learner is asked to choose 1 of 3 products he wants to work with (ok, that's easy).
For that product he's asked to provide 10 features in TEBs (so far so good, 10 user variables created for each feature).
As a next step, he needs to choose the top 3 features with which he wants to work further. The chosen 3 display a check mark when the respective clickbox is clicked, when he chooses the 3rd, a 'done' button & a caption 'click here...' appear. Advanced actions working ok, see below what they look like. If there's an easier way to do that, please let me know - took me hours to get this to work!
One issue I face is, that I don't know how I could allow the user to change his choice, i.e. 'un-check'. Currently, checked is checked - no way for the learner to change his mind.
But even more importantly:
I need to display the content of the 3 checked/selected variables at a later stage in the project. So, say the learner choses feature 2, 3 & 6 as the most important by checking the respective clickboxes behind the displayed variables (v_neo_f1 to f10) - how do I need to change my advanced action, so that I can generate variables v_neo_chosen1 - 3?
As you see in the screenshots above, I've tried to do that by creating an additional variable for each of the 10 features and assigning the value 1 when it's checked. That way I could check later in the project, which of those variables has the value 1 - but I don't know how to link this variable (v_neo_f1_check) then to the variable for the feature in which the text I need to display is stored (v_neo_f1).
This got me a major headache & hours of frustration already - can any of the guru's help me out here?
If anybody is interesting in creating the necessary actions for me at a reasonable rate, please let me know. I'm bordering desperation.
Happy new year,
Anja

I'm not sure I fully followed exactly what you are trying to do, but essentially what I got from your post is that its pretty complicated and you want to create new variables on the fly.
For that sort of thing I would suggest that advanced actions may not be advanced enough for what you are trying to achieve and that you should go for a Flash Widget instead.
For anybody getting started on widgets, I throughourly recommend the Widget Factory by the Widget King, which can be found at:
http://www.infosemantics.com.au/widgetking/
I also strongly recommend the following video:

Alternatively, as Lilybiri suggests, there may already exist a widget that does what you want it to do.

  • I just bought the new late 2013 iMac.  Can I get the new iWork for free?

    I just bought a new late 2013 iMac.  Can I get the new iWork for free?  I updated it to Mavericks also.  The Mac App store is showing $19.99 for each iWork component (Pages, Numbers, Keynote).  I also bought the previous iWork version, if that matters.  Free updates for iPhoto and  iMovie seemed to show up with no problems.  Maybe these are just glitches that will clear up in a couple of days?

    Hi.  If you want it to get updated, this should take care of it.
    1. Uninstall iWork from your Mac.
    2. Do a fresh install of iWork from DVD.
    3. Install iWork update from Apple Downloads (direct link here:  http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1563)
    4. Sign into the Mac App Store, and check for updates.  It should now show up as a free update.  You may have to give it a few minutes (i.e. 10-15 minutes).
    I've been a Windows user for years, so I know all of the tricks by now.  I had hoped I would not need this knowledge for a Mac, but oh well...
    Good luck.

  • So my ex step-daughter took my daughters ipad 4 and changed her passcode and is denying doing it but we know she did. she does things like this. my daughter has pictures on there that is very important to her. her late grandfather etc. how can we get into

    so my ex step-daughter took my daughters ipad 4 and changed the passcode. she is NEVER giving me the new passcode.  my daughters has pictures on there that are very important to her. pics of her late grandfather, etc. how can we get back into the ipad without losing her items??? shes heartbroken..

    Removing the "Disabled" will erase the iPad. If you have important files on an iPad you should backup frequently.

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

    Will not work.  To my knowledge, dual converting like that isn't supported.  The Mac must detect the connected video output device and that sort of info cannot be done across an analog component uni-directional connection.

    You might want to try performing a hard reset of your device; this will restart it and generally clear out any errors, it will not erase any data on your device.
    Press and hold both the home button and the lock button (the button on the top right of the iPhone) for several seconds until the Apple logo appears.

    You did install the latest iTunes (10.5) right?  If the problem was that iTunes does not see the iPod try:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

    I gave you the link to the Boot Camp documentation, read it carefully, mistakes in BC can have serious consequences.
    If you have not yet backed up your Mac, DO IT NOW.

    It looks like you may need a mini-displayport to Displayport cable. You can also try holding the option key while clicking on "scaled" to see if the option you need comes up.

  • Migration Assistant: Problems transferring data from PC (XP SP3) to new Mac Pro 2012 - can not get Migration Assistant to work as PC will not display verfify passcode

    Migration Assistant: Problems transferring data from PC (XP SP3) to new Mac Pro 2012 - can not get Migration Assistant to work as PC will not display verfify passcode
    Hello, I am having problems migrating data from my old PC running XP (SP3) to my new Mac Pro 2012 using the Migration Assistant.
    - I downloaded and installed the Windows Migration Assistant from Apple
    - My Mac recognized PC and displays passcode
    - The sasscode does not show / display on my PC
    - My Mac is then stuck in "authenticating" loop and the PC is stuck "waiting for Mac to connect."
    - Both computers are connected on same network (have connected PC on WIFI and using ethernet to Reuter)
    I have looked on support site and only response I saw says to reinstall Windows Migration Assistant (which I have done)
    Any ideas?  If cant get this to workare there instructions for manually bring across relevant data eg itunes music and apps, photos, picasa data etc?

    Why not turn off the Windows firewall and uninstall any other firewall software you have installed?
    If you are using a Norton product uninstall it and discard it. To fully unistall most Norton products you have to go to the Norton website and download a soecial program to completely get rid of it. The normal uninstall feature built into the program will not remove all of it.

  • Imac i5 late 2009 running OS X 10.8.4 and can't get FireWire connection to work

    I have Imac i5 late 2009 running OS X 10.8.4 and can't get FireWire connection to work with LaCie external drive.  I have gone through older posts and tried with no luck power cable and holding down start button for 15 seconds and restoring power and also removing power cable waitng 10 minutes replugging power cable holding down alt command P, R keys until second beep is heard.  I know that LaCie drive and cable are working, they were connnected to another iMac without issues.  What options do I have left to get FireWire to work? The System Report just says
    FireWire Bus:
    Maximum Speed: Up to 800 Mb/sec.
    Thanks for any help
    CS

    I did not mention in original post that when initially connected to the Firewire port the LaCie drive  I can hear activity so the drive is getting power. Does this mean the Firewire port may not be physically damamged and there may be options for resetting? Are there any 3rd party software repair programs worth buying for diagnostics and repair of the FireWire port?

  • Preprocessor command, assigned the variable and then compare the variable to int. How can I get around this?

    #define ON 1
    #define OFF 0
    in seperate code
    int variable = ON;
    variable is globally define for that module.
    in seperate code
    if (variable == ON)
    the complier errors off on the if (variable==ON)
    My guess variable is variable in of type int and ON is a preprocessor command. Therefore it is a mismatch and complier doesn't like it. How can I get around this.
    thank
    Mahen

    Mahen
    What is the exact message of the compiler?
    I think the error is, that the compiler does not find the definition of ON
    and OFF. Is it in the same source file?
    If not, try to put it into an .h file and include it where you need it.
