Format Quiz Questions
I'm using Contribute CS3 version 4.1 and creating quiz questions. One of my questions needs to be formatted in a specific way for readability and understandability. Nothing I've tried seems to work, it keeps appearing as a run on sentence - very ugly for my needs. Any suggestions??
Never mind, I've got it

I've created a quiz and found that the formatting for the
questions is inconsistent and doesn't fit my slides well. For
example, the width of the answers "blocks" are too narrow -- they
don't fill the slide width well. And some of the font sizes are too
small (automatically reduced from the defaults because of the
narrowed width).
Anyway, if I ungroup the answer in order to change the width
of just the answer (not the checkbox/radio button and answer
number), I lose the question in the quiz manager -- even if I
regroup after editing. I'm guessing there's a unique id assigned to
the group that is lost with ungroup.
Any recommendations for working around this?Use PPT 07. You can move a grouped item without ungrouping.

Is there any fix in the works for controlling how Quiz
Manager formats quiz questions/answers? Every time we need to make
an edit and go back into Quiz Manager, we have to reformat our quiz
slides. This is extremely time consuming and frustrating. Please
Adobe, put some formatting controls into the quiz manager (such as
font size), or fix your program in such a way as to not touch the
formatting that we do to our quiz question slides in
Powerpoint.I have worked a lot with presenter and have manually formated
the look of the questions after the slide has been generated and
have not ever had an error. I have changed location, spacing, font,
and size and added content to quiz slides, all without incident.
Are you using Presenter 6.2? This may be an issue of using an
older version of Presenter.

Modifying Quiz Question Format/Content
Issue: When we modify a quiz question in PowerPoint and then
go to the Quiz Manager the entire slide deck reverts to the format
before the changes, regardless of being saved previously.
Has anyone had this happen..please help.
I am trying to make edits/changes to a long presentation that
I need to deliver tomorrow and I keep losing the work I am doing.
Is there a better way to make the changes to the slides?
Thank you,
ScottYou can't modify quiz questions in the presentation itself -
you need to make those changes in the quiz manager itself. You can
adjust font size, lay out, etc on the slide itself, but not the
content -
Quiz questions will not retain format when question is changed.
OK forum folks. I'm working on my first e-learning project and have ran into a problem with question formating. The instructions/help basically tell you to click here and click there. I can easily figure that out. The questions I seem to have are quite a bit deeper.
I have a predefined template which is company approved. I have created master slides in the question pool for both a 4 item match and a 5 item match (I have found if I add a line to the 4 matching line quiz the line spacing and formatting changes). The placeholder questions are essentially non-questions.
I duplicate the master slide in the question pool to maintain the original format (spacing, location, etc.).
I change the placeholder questions on the duplicated slide to the real question (slide is still in the slide pool)
The formatting (font, spacing, locations, etc.) change on the new (edited) questions and require reformatting.I have also tried copying the master question slide to the filmstrip and editing the copied slide questions in the filmstrip. I receive the same results.
Is there are way I can create masters in the current format so I can use the approved templates, edit the questions and not have to reformat the slide after the questions have been changed?
Also, is there a way to lock the formatting of the questions? If I want to add/delete a new question or line to the slide, it would be great to be able to not have to reformat the slide for the change.
I look forward to your answers.
Thank you.I am trying to deal with the same issue. The master slides are more about background elements and navigation buttons, but they do not seem to allow for the addition of quiz elements.
I have come up with a workaround that I hope will work. What I am doing is creating a new project that becomes my quiz question layout library (Let's call this Project 2). In this project I add the various types of questions I will be using in my project (multiple choice with three choices, multiple choice with five, true/false, etc...). I get all the quiz elements in place for each type of question (the header, question, submit/clear buttons, review area, etc...).
These slides serve as my Master slides for my actual project (Project 1). I can copy and paste the appropriate layout from Project 2 to Project 1 and then change the questions themselves.
I am sure I will find out the downside of this soon enough...
There is no doubt the creation of masters for quiz questions needs work, actually it needs just to exist! -
Quiz Questions provide no selectable answers in HTML5 Publish
I am having issues with quizzing, whereas HTML5 format doesn't allow the user to select answers in quiz slides…
I am publishing a Captivate 7 project to two separate LMS' for beta testing purposes.
When I publish the project as HTML5 only, the quiz question appears as well as possible answers, but the form field does not appear, therefore rendering the user completely incapable of selecting an answer.
Publishing the same project as swf and HTML5 renders perfect results. (Quiz slide, selectable answers, and form field all show up and work)
Any advice?I solved my own problem.
I had inserted a background image into each of the question master slides.
When looking at either the master slide or timeline slide, the slide would lokk good. All text and slide objects, including answers, would show up on the slide as they should.
However, once published, the background image would cover the form fields used to select correct answers. This not only prevented the user from selecting an answer, but also caused major issues with audio and CC tracks after the quiz. -
Captivate 6 - Published - PDF does not play quiz questions
I just published my captivate 6 presentation. I am launching the .pdf file to view. At the end, the quiz questions do not work. I get a white screen and not my questions. Any ideas? Thanks
Below is a screen shot of the published settings. The whole training presentation plays as expected. Then when it gets to the quiz questions I get a white screen and nothing happens.
After I publish, I go to the zip file and run the pdf version.
This is for someone to view the training outside of our LMS system.
Here are the preferences .... -
Stuck in course before quiz question
Hi. I have a course where users get to a quiz question, then after going backwards to review content prior to that quiz question, then upon trying to go forward again, gets stuck on the content slide right before that quiz question and can never move forward again.
Quiz is set to Answer All, allow backward movement
Course is locked for every slide, Advnace by userHi,
Please check the number of attempts you have allowed per question, if the attempt set per question is one, the slide would get locked and would not allow any further attempts to be made
Please check the attempts for each question, modify it with number that you would like to allow.
Thanks,

Extra line after first item in quiz questions
I just started using Captivate 7. I made a template with some quiz questions and there is an extra line after the 2nd radio button in the templates for multiple choice and true false questions. Is that normal ?
Screen shot.I'm experiencing the same problem, also on Captivate 7.
The alignment is fine on the master slide, but every time I load a multiple choice or true/false question the "B" answer appears like this.
I've tried it with every theme and the same thing is happening. I've also had the program uninstalled and reinstalled and still the error is there.
I've searched on different forums, but no one seems to have the answer. -
Learners unable to enter answers to quiz questions
I've launched our first course and I'm coming across an issue that I haven't encountered as we tested the course.
I've created the course in Captivate 5.
All of our learners are using their own computers to complete the training, and I have no control over what equipment they are using.
A couple have reported that they are unable to enter answers to the quiz question. For example, it won't even let them click on the buttons for multiple choice answers. Those that have reported the issue seem to have older computers (around 5 years old), but say they've updated to the new version of flash player.
We've tested the module on somewhat newer computers, and we haven't come across that particular issue at all.
What could cause such a problem?
sannaI think this is what I will try. After I had a chance to talk to those that encountered the issue they said they had moved backwards in the course.
It never occured to me when testing the course to skip backwards and forwards. Lesson learned.
Now when you say include a 'scored' button, what do you mean?
I already have a 'next' button at the beginning of the course that the learner clicks to get started. It's an image button. I see when I look at the properties for that image button that there is an option to include it in the quiz. Is that what you meant? Set it to be included in the quiz?
Does it make a difference whether or not points are assigned to it, or whether or not it is included in the results?

How do you change quiz questions to look like your PowerPoint template without doing it manually on
We have a customized PowerPoint template with our branding colors and font applied. We need the Presenter quiz questions to have the same customized look. We need the questions to appear differently than the default, and we need our branding colors applied. I have been searching in Google, have read the Adobe Presenter 9 user manual, and cannot figure out if we can do this without applying the changes manually on each quiz question written. Is there a place in Presenter where we can customize the entire quiz question page? If so, where and how can you accomplish this?
I know it's an old thread, but Rob did do a good job of explaining how to setup a master slide for your Quizzes. Not sure that all steps still apply, but you get the general idea.

Add video feedback to quiz question
There is a presentation demo on the Adobe site called 'Breeze
for Rapid-training' which has a question and when answered, plays a
video. I cannot seem to find any information to do this. how is it
done?
Thanks MichelleAre you sure the feedback is on the same slide or are they
using branching to send you to a choice of slides with video on
them? I believe this is how you'd do it:
First, create a slide continaing you're video.
Then use the hide slide function in powerpoint so that people
won't be able to access the slide unless they go through the quiz
to get to it
Now craete a quiz question and use the branching feature to
go to that slide with the video
This is a very quick and dirty explanation, so please let me
know if you need more explanation or if you need more detail.
Best,

How do I create quiz question in reflow?
How do I create quiz question in reflow? There is form element but how am I going to get the value of the radio button or the text entry?
You can design the quiz in Reflow but you'll need to code up some sever side code to collect the data and reports for your quiz. If you don't want to write the code you could look at Muse or an online service like typeform or some elearning solution.
Hope that helps,

.JPGs used in the drop/drag quiz questions
In Captivate 4, can .JPGs be used in drop/drag quiz questions? We need to see if Learners can properly "build up" a sub-assembly of a machine and they will need to know which part fits on top of the correct piece of equipment.
If not, any suggestions?No. Currently no version of Captivate allows you to set up drag and drop interactions natively with images as the drag objects or targets.
However, there are two widgets that can be purchased to do this:

Lightbox using smartshape in Quiz question
Hi,
I'm using one question/quiz slide and would like to create a lightbox to display different comments depending on what choice the user selects.
In the comment lightbox, I hope to allow the user to click a X image to close the lightbox.
The exisiting message boxes do not give the client a look they desire. Are there any other suggestions on alternative message boxes that overlay over the the quiz question?
Please advise.
Thank you!
SusanneYou could use grouped objects that include Smart Shape buttons for the click to close the lightbox.
But you need to be aware that the ON Success or On Last Attempt events only fire in Quiz Questions AFTER the Submit button has been clicked and any feedback captions have appeared and been dismissed. If you want your lightbox captions to appear after the submit button is clicked, you'll need to turn off the other feedback captions.
As far as having a different lightbox appear depending on which answer the user chooses, that's really only available for Multi-Choice quiz questions, no others (and not even multiple answer questions). You need to use the Advanced Answer option event to trigger the appearance of the lightbox.
