Quiz reporting in Captivate 7
Can a Captivate 7 project be configured to report Quiz Attempts to an LMS?
Just to clarify something here. Are you certain that the "number of attempts" it is showing you there in the LMS is the number of attempts that a user made WITHIN the Captivate module during a single session? Or is it just showing you the number of attempts the LMS "thinks" your learner has made on the module because it's tracking the number of times the module was launched?
I think you need to do some testing and attempt a quiz two or three times in a single module session and then see whether the "number of attempts" in the LMS reflects that number, even when the module has only been launched once from the LMS.

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!
Thanks

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');

Problem with Quiz created in Captivate 4 imported to Captivate 5
Good day,
I finally got upgraded to the eLearning Suite so I am now using Captivate 5. I have a course that has a quiz built in Captivate 4. It is designed that if the user scores less than 80%, they are returned to the start of the quiz. If they pass, it is supposed to jump them to the "completion" screen" I have created. However, since I imported this into Captivate 5 and I view the quiz, on the first fail, it takes me back to the beginning of the quiz on my first try. However, on the second try if I fail it again, it just goes to a white screen. I have changed the "On Fail" settings to 999 and indefinite. Neither seem to have an impact. Not sure what else I could try.
The thought of rebuilding the quiz makes me wish we had more than three stories in this building!
Here is a link to my captivate 5 file. http://coventry.mzinga.com/content/ss/TestSCORMFiles//Enhanced_Authorization_Integration/w orkers_comp_just_the_quiz.cptx
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks,
EricHi Eric
While it may make you feel like you have accomplished something by asking if Adobe has updates, what you have done is the equivalent of walking into the waiting area of the service department of a car dealership and asking aloud if there are any updates on your vehicle. The other customers are likely the only ones that hear you ask and they just look back at you with puzzled expressions on their faces.
The thing is, this forum is a bit unusual in that members of the actual Adobe Captivate development team visit here occasionally. But you can't count on that being the case. They do have other work to do.
Cheers... Rick

First - apologies if this is a duplicate post, but I want to
be sure of the answer before I go back to my boss and ask for some
resources.
We are publishing our assessments in .exe format, and sending
results via email in Outlook, where tracking is done manually - we
don't have an LMS. The e-mails provide minimal data, and don't tell
you exactly which questions were missed.
My boss would like to be able to see which questions
test-takers are having the most trouble with. I have provided
test-takers with a "Review Quiz" button, but from what I can see,
there's no actual report available of which questions were missed.
Is this something I need a Web developer to do for me, or is there
something built into Captivate that I can use?
AnneHi Anne. You should be able to get individual question
results along with the score. (I'm assuming Captivate 3). The score
is the "core data". It includes: Status, Location, Score, and Time.
If you want question results also, go to Edit, Preferences,
Quiz, Reporting - then check the radio button to include
"Interactions and score" in the lower right of the dialog for
Reporting Level. The email (either body text or attachment,
depending on what you select) will include individual question data
listed under "Interaction Data". Here's a simple quiz result email:
Results=
Core Data
"Status","Location","Score","Time"
"passed","6","75","00:00:19"
Interaction Data

Email reporting isues Captivate 3
Has anyone had problems with the enabling email reporting in
Captivate 3. When trying to send Quiz results via email the button
does not trigger email client and an error message is posted at the
bottom of the HTML page. After a search it looks like this is a
common problem with Captivate 3. Not sure how to look under the
hood to check the code for the button. Can anyone assist.I'm having problems but not exactly the same. Originally an
email window would pop up for me for 'submit quiz.' I want to do
away with that so I tried instructions at
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/captivate/articles/store_cpresults.html
to eventually skip the email part. When I changed the SendMail
function (which may be where you need to look), nothing pops up
when I test the html file. When I went back into my captivate quiz
to check quiz preferences and republished, an email was triggered.
However now the email is 'invisible.' I see warning messages from
outlook that another application is trying to send mail through it
but that's it. Meanwhile, I have it set to attach the results, not
put in the body text but it's putting the results in the body text.
It's all very quirky from my experience. I'm using version

Re: cp5.5 and quiz reporting.....again
Sorry, I know this is being done to death but I need to understand what goes into the .php file
that my web server company will host.
I get that I need to have a .php file, and my server company do handle .php files
but can't find what the file contents should be.
Any clues would be wonderful, I have contacts that know about .php files but no
knowledge of CP and others who know CP but use LMS so the quiz reporting to server is not
in their arena.
Can someone point me to any forum question or web site that explains the actual .php file contents?
thanks
grandpa72Some details about how to set up this solution can be found here: http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/2010/08/reporting-the-quiz-results-to-a-local-server.html
The blog post also gives you the location on your system of the template PHP files you need to use. The code is in those templates. -
I'm fairly new to Captivate, but well-versed with other Adobe products.
I'm working on quiz questions in Captivate 7, but maybe (hopefully?) I'm doing it all wrong. Outlined below:
Need questions sprinkled throughout the module, we call them "Check Your Understanding." For now, true/false, multiple choice, etc. Will eventually include rollovers, etc.
Currently, I have a multiple choice question. Slide begins with a header caption created with two shapes and a text caption with "Check Your Understanding." Would like that entire group to fly in from the left for seven seconds. When I preview the slide, half of the group is visible, but unmoving unless I hit Play. I thought it should play automatically?
Second, when the question is submitted, even if the question is wrong, it just advances to the next slide. I need to require a correct answer before moving on OR the correct answer to show, and maybe a reason why. I can't get any of that to work.
I don't have a need for the results/review slide to show at the end, but is that inhibiting the result from displaying on the slide itself?
Thank you!Hello and welcome to the forum,
Is this a default question slide or a custom question slide created using standard objects and advanced actions? If it is a default MCQ be careful not to delete objects that are normally available on the master slide for that question, you can make them invisible but deleting (with the exception of some buttons) could lead to weird results. You are using an effect I suppose for the group? Look at the timeline (or better post a screenshot of the timeline): for a default question slide there will be a pausing point (used by the two-step process of that question slide: http://blog.lilybiri.com/question-question-slides-in-captivate) and I suspect that this pause is interrupting your fly-in effect.
Read the blog post about the behavior of question slides please. And it is a good practice not to have the playbar available for question slides. Another intuition tells me that by hitting Play you forced the playhead to pass over the pausing point, in the inactive part of the slide and that is why the playhead continues after submitting.

Hi,
I'm running into an issue with Captivate 4. I created a 20 question quiz which uses the question pool to randomly sort the order. When I either preview it or publish the quiz, as I run through the quiz, it freezes.
What happens is, after I select the submit button, it gives me the feedback caption. When I click anywhere to continue, the caption disappears then the slide freezes. It doesn't proceed to the next question. Also, it's not consistent, each time I run the quiz it freezes at different points.
When I take these questions out of the pool, the quiz runs fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
eLearnDudeI have done a couple of things to get it working like I have separated all of the different quiz type questions into separate pools and pull random questions from each pool. I have also stopped using the multiple choice slides with single correct answer only (this was from David) although I feel it defeats the usability of the quiz module in Captivate if you cant use all of the different types. But for this one I just need to get it out.
I will have to go back and do some testing with other types later to see if it is just that one type causing the issues or if it was the fact I had them all in one pool instead of splitting them up into different ones.
I did received feed back from Adobe and they just said "Most likely cause is a corrupted file" rebuild the file. since half of the people in my test group did not have issues and some did I don't believe the file was corrupted.

Partial Scoring on Matching Quiz Slide in Captivate 8
Hi,
I tried searching for the answer to this question before posting but I only located an answer for Captivate 5.5. Is it possible to do partial scoring for a matching quiz slide in Captivate 8. If not, does someone know a workaround? It would also be helpful to me to know which questions slides allow partial scoring. I am posting my trainings on an intranet site and not an LMS so I don't have the capability to do partial scoring from the LMS.
Thanks,
JeffOnly one type of question allows partial scoring: MCQ with multiple correct answers.
Workaround is to create a custom question slide. The score can be stored in a variable, you'll have to collect the variable. Have some blog posts about partial scoring in custom question slides, before it appeared for MCQ in Cp. Here is an example:
Widgets and Custom Questions - part 2 - Captivate blog
I once created a custom matching question slide for a client (who never paid), using the D&D interactive widget from InfoSemantics, but that is only for SWF output. And it had partial scoring. -
Add buttons to quiz-slide? Captivate 7
Hi there,
I am really having a hard time trying to add buttons to a quiz-slide (fill in the blank).
Is it really true, that there is no work-around? All I need to do, is to use the smart shapes/ image buttons, to link to other slides in the project.
Anyone??
Thanks, in advance
//NiklasMaybe this blog post could help, because it is not always that easy to have
shape buttons on question/score slides. I encountered several small issues
and tried to figure out workarounds:

Passing your own Flash quiz data to Captivate
Hi there!
Can anyone describe how or whether it is possible to pass quiz data from your own imported Flash quiz, to the Captivate environment in which it is housed? Basically I want to make use of Captivates SCORM packager but using data from an embedded Flash file...is this a simple process?
Thanks!
JoshHi osbornsm,
Try out Jim's suggestion above, but if that doesn't work then what's probably happening is the widget is trying to load the languages.xml but can't find it. You'd have to make sure it's placed in the output directory of the published Captivate file to get it to work. Even then, you won't be able to get it to work when previewing the movie.
Probably a better way to go about this would be to embed the XML file into your widget SWF. That way the widget won't need to load it. Here's how you'd embed it:
package
public class load_lang extends StaticWidget
[Embed("path-to-file/languages.xml", mimeType="application/octet-stream")]
private var BinaryData:Class;
override protected function enterRuntime():void
var byteArray:ByteArray = new BinaryData();
var myXML:XML = new XML(byteArray.readUTFBytes(byteArray.length));
// Continue to code in processXML() -
How do I get Connect 8 to report my Captivate 5 quiz results as a percent?
I have the latest Captivate patch (that over wrote CPSWFGenerator.dll) that was supposed to fix this but it still doesn't work. I have created/published a new test, have it set to report score as a percent with all of the reporting boxes checked. If I set the LMS preference to send an Email, I get the score published as a percent in the email but when I change the LMS preference from Email back to Adobe Acrobat Connect Pro I get the raw score like 140/140. Help!

Question Question Slides in Captivate - Captivate blog
Question Question Slides - Part 2 - Captivate blog
Through twitter I learned that you use CP6 and that you want that message on each question slides during ReviewMode.
In CP6 system variable cpInReviewMode is not yet there. Create a user variable v_review, with a default value of 0. You'll have to toggle it to 1 when in Review Mode. That can be done using the system variable cpQuizInfoAttempts. When comparing its value to the total number of attempts, you know if you'll be getting in Review mode when getting back at the Score slide:
use the On Enter event of the score slide
create this conditional action:IF cpQuizInfoAttempts is equal to n (where n is the number of attempts you allow in the Quiz Preferences on Quiz Level)
Assign v_review with 1
Create the text caption or shape with text for each slide and make that text container invisible in output (Properties panel). I will label the text container: Tx_quest1, Tx_quest2.....
Use the On Enter event of each Question slide to trigger this conditional action
IF v_review is equal to 1
Show Tx_quest1 -
V6 quiz report LMS as completed after 3 failed attempts
I have a pure quiz in captivate 6 that allows the learner to take it 3 times only eg
Attempt 1 = fail = report LMS incomplete
Attempt 2 = fail = report LMS incomplete
Attempt 3 = fail = report LMS incomplete
What i need is not logical but.........
I require the LMS to
Attempt 1 = fail = report LMS incomplete
Attempt 2 = fail = report LMS incomplete
Attempt 3 = fail = report LMS complete
Is this at all possible?
Happy to try anything with instructions
Thank you in advance and hope the above is clear enough
JoHmm, very illogical indeed. Not consistent with normal SCORM behavior at all.
Just some ideas, without having checked them completely. You are using score or completion of slides as criterion? If it is the last option, make sure there are some slides to be viewed after the last attempt by using the Action on Fail that you'll find in the Quiz Preferences. I hope that is the case. But what if you have to report a score?
