Is crossword puzzle scoring possible in captivate??

How can I apply scoring in a crossword puzzle. Because I want to score every letter in a box with 1. The total score will depend on the number of correct letters/words in a puzzle. And how can I add it to the total score in the module if the crossword puzzle is one of the three quizzes in a module? Is it possible in captivate?? By the way, I'm using captivate 5.0.

I should need some reflection time, trying to find a way to reuse variables... It could help if I had an example to work on, should that be possible? You have certainly click boxes over all the letters? But normally you do not have 100 letters, or are you talking about something else than a regular crossword puzzle? Your description with diagonals possible seems to point to another kind or word puzzle. How did you realize 'The correct answers were also inside the boxes, which is vertical, horizontal and diagonal, upward and downward'?

Cap 7 crossword puzzle widget not displaying last answer clue in it's entirety; how do I fix?

Hello,
I'm trying to use the crossword puzzle widget in Captivate 7, but am experiencing issues. The answer clues box provides a scroll bar; however, it will not allow me to view the last few lines of the final answer clue. Is there a way to fix this issue?
Thanks.

Crossword puzzles

I would love to do a crossword puzzle for one of my projects. Anybody have any advice? I am currently a way RUSTY Flash user, so looking for a quick/easy way to create a puzzle. Are there any tools that work well with Captivate? At first I was thinking I could create it directly in Captivate using lots of little text entry boxes. Ha ha ha ha ha. That was at 3 a.m. Now I'm out of bed and have had some coffee, and I realize there has got to be a better way ;-) Any thoughts?

Hi there,
My best recommendation would be to do this in Flash. I found the following FLA is available at FlashKit, though I give you no guarantee that this will work in Adobe Captivate.

How can I set up a page so it will copy a crossword puzzle with dark background

I can't print crossword puzzles for my students. I need to know how to make the background show up.
Chrome can't do it or safari, but I think there is supposed to be a way to do it on firefox.
I'm using crosswordpuzzlegames.

How do I export a crossword puzzle from Adobe to Microsoft Word

How do I export a crossword puzzle, with numbers, to Microsoft Word without losing the numbers?

I think it is pretty much certain that this task is far too difficult. I don't think Word could hold a crossword puzzle (except as a big picture).

Crossword puzzle - Delete vs. Backspace

Hi
I’ve created a crossword puzzle in AS3 where you have to type in the characters individually into their blocks, for e.g. if the answer is true, you will have to type T into block 1, R into block 2, etc.
My code to test the answer is:
if(true1.text.slice(-2,-1)+true2.text.slice(-2,-1)+true3.text.slice(-2,-1)+ true4.text.slice(-2,-1)=="TRUE") {
answerTrue=true;
} else…
If the answer is incorrect and you press the Backspace button to remove the current character and retype the correct character it works perfect and validates as correct.
BUT if you press the Delete button and you then also retype the correct character it validates it as incorrect. (It only validates as incorrect if you press Delete after the character or if you press it twice.)
Why is the Delete button causing it to break and do you have any suggestions on how I can fix this?
The only other solution I can think of is to just disable the Delete button, but that isn’t as easy as I thought it would be.
Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks, I've changed it to substr(true1.length-1, true1.length) and it works perfect

When I play a online crossword puzzle, after typing one letter the next letter I type is a number (and any letters after that are also numbers in consecutive order). How can I fix this?

This problem has occurred on two different online crossword puzzle websites.

Is this possible in Captivate 3?...

I have Macromedia Captivate 1.0, and it doesn't do what we
need. I was wondering if upgrading to Captivate 3 would solve the
problem. Here's what I'd like to do...
I need to have a "menu screen" that would have, say, three
"tasks" to complete. The user would select one "task" and then they
could either watch a demo on it, or they could try it in "test
mode". If they pass it in "test mode" (by clicking in all the
correct spots), then Captivate will somehow mark it off (or put a
check next to it) or something on the main menu with the three
tasks. Once all three tasks have been "checked off" in Test Mode,
then Captivate will pass a "complete" variable to the LMS via
SCORM-compliance...
Can this be done with the latest Captivate? Or would other
tools be necessary in order to accomplish this? If Captivate 3
alone can handle this, is it a relatively painless process?
Thanks!!!

Sorry, what you're asking is not possible with Captivate and
probably never will be.
Captivate creates SCORM-compliant units (SCOs) and SCORM does
not allow SCOs to contain their own menu/navigation logic. All
navigation between files must be handled by the Learning Management
System so it knows which SCO is "in use" when scores are reported
back.
The "correct" procedure would be to create six separate SCOs
and mark the demo SCOs as "optional" in the LMS, and the tests
"required". The user then accesses all SCOs through the LMS
interface. Enable only completion reporting for the demos and full
score reporting for the tests and you'll be able to track
everything the user took to the full extent that your LMS supports.
Your only other alternative is to create three separate units
that have both demo and test in a single file. Add a button that
gives users the option to jump past the demo slides and go directly
to the test. Enable reporting for only the test items and have
Captivate report that score to the LMS. Then, the LMS can decide
whether to "check off" each unit as complete based on the user's
test score. Doing it this way doubles your Captivate file size
(generally a bad thing) and makes it much more work to determine
which users viewed the demo, hence the suggestion to treat
everything as separate files as SCORM's designers intended.
The main takeaway from all this is that SCORM doesn't care
what you do in a given file but it will promptly vomit on your
shoes if you try to jump to another SCO without it's knowing, so
custom menus are a no-no...

How can I get the keyboard to work when I try to type in passwords or crossword puzzle words?

I suddenly can't get what I type in to show up on the screen. It won't print my user name or password to enter a site or print the answers in the crossword puzzle site I use.

Would you try Firefox beta from the Play Store to see if this helps? What crossword site?

Hi,
Please follow the steps listed below to disable the schedules print delivery:
1. From the printers front panel go to the 'Apps' section and scroll through until you find the desired print app. Select the print app and then choose 'Pause' subscription. This will pause the subscription until a user selects it again and 'resumes' printing. If the print app is not visible on your printer it may have been removed, please go to method 2.
2. Go to www.hpeprintcenter.com and login to your account, create an account if necessary. Go to the 'Apps' section and select the desired print app. Select 'setup' and then 'update settings', at the bottom of the settings page you will see in blue text 'Cancel Scheduled Delivery'.

Can I add the NY Times crossword puzzle app to Safari?

I have been trying to figure out how to install the New York Times crossword puzzle application, Across Lite v2.0, with no luck. Is there a way to add this plug-in to Safari? Im using Safari 1.3.1 on a PB G4 running OS X 10.3.9.
Thanks in advance for any help offered.
Bflatblues

Thanks for the response. I usually use FireFox and I have it configured so that when I click on Play todays puzzle at the NYTimes site for the puzzle it opens up Across Lite, downloads the puzzle (somedate.puz), and sticks it into the Across Lite program.
Im about to upgrade to OS X 10.4.2. Will I be able to tell the new version of Safari to do this or can I do this now and I'm just ignorant of how?
Thank you again.

I have trouble with Universal Crossword Puzzle not printing.

When the U Crossword Puzzle doesn't print I try to get it to print by selecting the app on the 8500A screen. However when I select the app on the 8500A display I get the message that the printer app is unable to connect to the server. This happens every time, although other apps can connect to the server and the printer is on-line. I need to have the U Crossword app connect with the server to tell it to print today's crossword puzzle. That's the only way for me to get it when it doesn't print. What is the problem with this app not connecting with the server???

Hi Feldo,
I'm sorry that you are having this problem with that app.
Here are a couple of solutions to try:
1) This solution is guaranteed to work. Note: If you use this solution it will cancel all apps subscriptions that you have created. If you have an eprintcenter.com (or eprint.com) account, it will remove your printer and your custom email address from your account. Afterwards you can then re-add your printer (a new printer code wil print automatically) and recreate a customized email address. However, you will not be able to create the exact same email address as you had before.You can also then resubscribe to any apps that were cancelled.
To use this solution, go to the following website: How to Manage, Pause, or Unsubscribe from Prints and Faxes and click on the link for Solution three: Disable/Enable Web Services on your printer. Follow the instructions there.
2) Power cycle your printer in this manner: Turn off the printer, unplug the printer (at the socket or at the rear of the printer), wait 30 seconds, plug in the printer, and turn on the printer. Wait at least 5 minutes, then your problem may be solved.
Let us know what worked for you!

A favorite program suddenly won't load and I get the following message: Error reading crossword file. Check/daily-crossword/puzzles/2011-06/dc1-2011.bin is up

The program was loading ok until a power outage 2 days ago. Since restarting the pc the crossword puzzle won't load and I get the message provided.

I've had this problem since June 1 and no reply was received from Thinks when I wrote to them about it. In my case, it applies to the crossword puzzle and also to the codebreaker.
