Quiz Slides inserted into other slides??

Is it possible to insert a quiz slide into another slide with content on it? I have a short story in a series of about 11 slides, and would like the user to be able to answer some questions pertaining to the paruticular slides as they unfold. Is it possible to manipulate a multiple choice question that is inserted in another slide, and/or can the question even be inserted into a story slide? Thanks in advance!

Hi Sabrina
Accept my apologies for this late answer, last week has been very hectic. I will try to make it up, will send you a link to the example slide I did create if this is really what your wanted. You'll find a screenshot.
I create a slide with a duration of 10secs. The drawing I created (SimpleDiagrams) is visible for the duration of the slide.
To the slide an audio is attached (it is music here, but you will have a narration, that has a timeline of 7secs. After those 7secs, the question appears (see timeline screenshot). It has 4 Text captions:
Question itself (How many men...), labeled it Quest1
3. 4. The three possible answers, labeled Ans1_1, Ans1_2 and Ans1_3
The answers are covered with 3 click boxes, CB1_1, CB1_2 and CB1_3. They do only have a Success Caption, deleted Failure as well as Hint Caption. The caption gives the feedback to the user (on the screenshot I show the feedback for the correct answer). All captions are in the same location, have same size. To each caption I attached the appropriate object audio. It will play when the caption appears.
Finally I have a 'Next' button, that is initially set to invisible in the Properties, but will become visible when the correct answer has been chosen. You have to make sure that the pausing time of this button is after the pausing time of the click boxes. I labeled this button BtNext1
I created 2 standard advanced actions, really simple ones:
rewind to be attached to all click boxes that sit on top of incorrect answers; they will rewind the playhead so that it will not continue when the click box is clicked (which is the default behavior); since there is nothing specific to the slide object ID's, this can be reused on all question slides; action has one statement:
Assign rdcmndGotoFrameAndResume with rdinfoCurrentFrame
success to be attached to the click box on top of the correct answer (here CB1_2); it doesn't have to rewind the playhead, but will show the button that pauses the slide again (a little bit later on the timeline because the pausing time is later than for the click boxes); this action has a slide specific object ID (the label of the button), so you will have to duplicate it to have an instance for each slide, and change the button identification (label); to make editing easier I chose this typical label, you will only have to change the last character if you label your buttons with this logical names; this action has only one statement as well:
Show BtNext1

Field != then Insert Into Other Table

Hi,
I cannot figure out how to create a trigger that will insert data based on if a old.field != new.field. If the field was changed in
one table tbl_test then insert that record into the other table tbl_test_history. This is a little different since I want to insert a record if a update
took place. The update will still take place in tbl_test but I want a insert to take place in tbl_test_history.
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER AU_INSERT_TEST_HISTORY
AFTER UPDATE
ON TBL_TEST   FOR EACH ROW
WHEN (
    OLD.Orange != NEW.Orange
OR OLD.Apple != NEW.Apple
BEGIN
INSERT INTO TBL_TEST_HISTORY
(ORANGE,
APPLE
BANANA,
GRAPE
select ORANGE,
         APPLE
         BANANA,
         GRAPE
FROM TBL_TEST, TBL_TEST_HISTORY
WHERE TBL_TEST.PK_TEST_ID = TBL_TEST_HISTORY.PK_TEST_ID;
END AU_INSERT_TEST_HISTORY;
/I will have a separate trigger that will insert records from tbl_test to tbl_test_history. This trigger compiles with no errors but when I
create a record in tbl_test I receive an error. I am not sure if the syntax is correct, can anyone help me with this?

My bad. I put the colon : into the when clause. They weren't there in your code. Usually I use an if condition, which is a little different.
I added some NVL logic to to consider comparison of NULL values too.
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER AU_INSERT_TEST_HISTORY
AFTER UPDATE ON TBL_TEST
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
if nvl(:old.ORANGE,'xxx') != nvl(:new.ORANGE,'yyy')
     OR nvl(:old.APPLE,'xxx') != nvl(:new.APPLE,'yyy')
then
    INSERT INTO TBL_TEST_HISTORY
     (ORANGE, APPLE, BANANA, GRAPE)
    values (:new.ORANGE,
             :new.APPLE,
             :new.BANANA,
             :new.GRAPE);
end if;
END AU_INSERT_TEST_HISTORY;
/ You can additionally consider to make this trigger an AFTER INSERT OR UPDATE trigger.
Then you would also put the inserted values from the start into your history table.

Insert into other table from form

Hi All,
I have created a data block with view as a data source. I need to save the data from a form to some other table.
I have tried using INSTEAD OF Trigger. howeverwhen I try to save, getting an error : ORA-01445 cannot select ROWID from a join view without a key-preserved table.
I appreciate any suggestions on it.
Thanks and Regards
Sai

Sorry, it looked at first as if you wanted help on the problem you encountered. After reading again your response to Zaibiman I see that you were just tricking us with the detailed explanation of the error.
To insert into a table other than the one you queried, use the on-insert trigger.
However, an Instead Of trigger on the view is usually the best method. If you have set the key mode, defined a primary key item and removed any references to rowid, as per Zaibiman, then it should work. You'll need your own locking method if the view uses Group By or Distinct.

How to read data from flatfile and insert into other relevant tables ? Please suggest me the query ?

Hi to all,
I have flat files in different location through FTP i need to fetch those files and load in the relavant table of the database.
Please share me the query to do it ..

You would need a ForEach Loop to iterate though the files. Initially the FTP task will pull the files from locations to a landing folder. Once thats done the ForEachLoop will iterate through files in the folder and will have a data flow task inside to transfer
file data to tables.
If you want a more secure option you can also use SFTP (Secured FTP) and can implement it using free WinSCP clinet. I've explained a method of doing it fo dynamic files here
http://visakhm.blogspot.in/2012/12/implementing-dynamic-secure-ftp-process.html
for iterating through files see this example
http://visakhm.blogspot.in/2012/05/package-to-implement-daily-processing.html
you may not need the validation step inside the loop in your case
Please Mark This As Answer if it helps to solve the issue Visakh ---------------------------- http://visakhm.blogspot.com/ https://www.facebook.com/VmBlogs

Is it Possible to Insert Quiz Slides at Set Times During a Video?

Hi all,
I'm fairly new to Captivate, so I apologise in advance if this question has already been answered and I couldn't find it.
I work in higher education and we create a lot of screencasts with academics speaking over Powerpoint presentations. During a presentation there is often several points where the academic would like to ask the user a question. What I want to know is if there's a way of adding question slides during a video?
Many thanks,
Ross

You will have to split up that video to be able to insert slides in between.

Quiz slides inserted in project; subsequent slide has audio

Hi,
I inserted a couple of quiz slides, true/false and multiple choice, in between 2 regular slides that have audio. When I run my project, I see the quiz slide, but the audio plays as if the quiz slides are not there. In other words, the audio for the subsequent slide plays while the quiz slide is displayed. For example:
Slide 1 has audio
Slide 2 is quiz
Slide 3 is quiz
Slide 4 has audio
When I play, my audio goes from slide 1 to slide 4, while displaying slide 2
I know I must have some basic setting incorrect. My quiz slides are set to On Success - Continue. The surrounding slides are set to On Enter - Continue, On Exit - No Action.
Help!

In Captivate you can insert audio on objects, on a single slide, and across multiple slides.
Is it possible that your audio has been inserted to span more than one slide instead of slide-by-slides?
If for example you had originally added your audio to a number of timed slides, and then inserted more slides in between, you may have confused Captivate as to where the audio needed to play.
I may be on the wrong track here but thought it worth suggesting.

Quiz slide not advance when using question pools and advance answer options?

Hi,
I am using CP 5.5. I created a small test where I have just 2 question in a question pool. The questions are using the advanced answer options to show some specific feedback. When I insert the questions in to the project using a random question slide, after the user answers where you should be able to press Y or click to move on, I click, but nothing happens. You can't get off the quiz slide. The quiz slides work fine when they are inserted in the project as reqular quiz slides, but not when they are being pulled from a question pool.
Is this a known bug? Is there a workaround? Anyone else run in to this?
Thanks!
Lori

I was having the same problem on the last Random Question slide (total 10 RQ slides), and was able to fix it by following the next steps:
Make sure Quiz: Pass or Fail actions are set to Continue for both Passing and Failing actions in the quiz preferences.
Delete the RQ slide not advancing, then duplicate one of the RQ slides working, and assign your question pool to the new slide if different from the original duplicate. This step will make sure you are using a good working RQ slide.
For some reason, my last RQ slide was corrupted and wasn't advancing to the Score slide at the end of the quiz.
I can finally finish this project.
Good luck.

Added help button to quiz slide

I am trying to add a help button to a quiz slide. I would
like ti to pull up a slidelet or go to another slide with a image.
All my buttons and click boxes are disabled on question slides.
Any help would be appreciated.
-Mark

Hi Mark
I believe you could accomplish this as follows:
Create a blank Captivate project that is the same size as
your existing project. Create the slidelet as part of this project.
Define the rollover area and whatever else you need. Be sure to
pause the project so the slidelet will work without the playhead
just moving on.
Publish this as a .SWF. You may DE-Select the HTML check box
so all you end up with is the .SWF.
Open the project with the Question slide. Edit the Question
slide and click Insert > Animation. Browse to and select the
.SWF you just created. This should allow you to insert a Slidelet
on a Question slide.
Cheers... Rick

Positioning quiz slide objects

I am working on a Captivate 5 project with many quiz slides. The quiz slides were put into the project by someone else. I need to move the various quiz slide objects (submit button, back button, clear button, question text, review area, hint caption, and so forth).
These objects need to be moved to the same position in all of the quiz slides. I've been moving these objects into place one by one and it is very tedious.
Is there a way to set up a style to move all of these objects on all quiz slides at once?

Each of the objects you mention on the quiz slide are a special type of object in Captivate.
So although Object Styles do not allow you to specify the X and Y coordinates of an object, you CAN just move one of these objects on one slide to the location you want them all to be, and then go to the Position and Size accordion in the Properties tab (Transform accordion in Cp5.5), look for the small dropdown in the top right corner of the accordion, and choose the option to Apply to all items.
The name is a bit misleading because it make you think this will actually apply the positioning setting to every item in the project. But the fact is that it will only apply it to items OF THE SAME OBJECT TYPE. So although you would never do this for something like text captions in the main part of your project, you can safely do it for things like Submit, Clear, Back, and Next buttons in quiz slides because each of them are actually totally different object types as far as Captivate is concerned.
Note also the option to Apply to all items of same style. This means you can create custom styles and apply them to just certain buttons or captions if you only wanted SOME items to be positioned in a certain way, while all other items should retain their original positions.

Quiz slides not to be counted in quiz summary at end - Captivate 4

I have created a course which has quiz slides at the beginning of the cours which I have marked to not be graded. These slides are knowledge checks and should not be graded nor be counted. Then I have quiz slides at the end of the course that I do want to be graded. But I do not want the quiz slides at the beginning of the course "counted" in the summary quiz slide at the end of the course. I only want the quiz slides at the end counted.
How can I change the settings in the quiz slides to "not" be counted in the quiz summary page at the end of the course.
Thank you for your assistance.

My best guess here as to the reason for your issue is that you've removed some of the essential objects from the Quiz Slides and that is fouling things up.
Quiz Slides MUST ALWAYS have the default Question Title and Question Text captions present. These are special caption objects that are ONLY found on quiz question slides. If you remove them or replace them with normal captions your quiz slides will malfunction inconsistently.
The other thing you may have done here by the sound of it is to set Submit All and then move the Submit All button off the slide into the scrap area. That's also likely to screw things up. If you do NOT want the user to see the Submit All button until the final quiz question slide then just change them to Transparent buttons and move them ALMOST off stage, but leave at least a few pixels of the button object still sitting over the top of the stage area. This will mean the user cannot see (and is very unlikely to click) the Submit All button except for the slide where you WANT them to see it.

Localization of Quiz Slide Content

I have developed a set of eLearning Modules that have already been deployed in english, and now need to be translated into 10+ languages for international use.
This process has been made faster and easier using File > Export > Project Captions and Closed Captions...
However, I've noticed that on the Quiz Slides: instructions, titles and navigation buttons are not included in the exported in the captions.doc and therefore are not automatically translated (because of the lack of inclusion) when I import the Updated Text Caption Data.
Are there any time-saving options besides just translating those Quiz Slide objects manually within captivate?
Thanks!

Hi MB_Design,
Thank you for contacting Adobe Support.
We would like to tell you that the standard objects or the navigation button text and the instructions have to be changed manually through Captivate.
Since the project is created in English language there is not any feature that can convert standard object ot text according to the launguage you choose.
Thanks

Where can I find detailed instruction on how to set up Likert quiz slides in Captivate 7?

I am learning Captivate 7 and I'm stuck trying to create a series of Likert quiz slides. I can't find detailed instruction on how to set up the selections on the scale.

I would like to know how to read Likert results. Any help would be appreciated.
I have 15 comments that I need feedback from. There are three possible responses; Seldom, Sometimes, & Often. I would like to assign a point value (numeric value) to each response.
Seldom=1
Sometimes=2
Often=3
Once they have been answered , I would like to then take the total point values of only specific questions and display them. (e.g.Questions 2,4,7,9,13). Is it possible to track and assign a point value to each response. I figure once I get them into variables I can create an Advance Action to do the math. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

The "Next" button is grayed out on quiz slides when running in HTML 5 Chrome browser and iPad

Hi,
Has anyone run into this problem for Captivate 8? The "Next" button is grayed out on quiz slides when running in HTML 5 Chrome browser and iPad. The Next button shows in IE/Flash mode.
Thanks in advance for providing your help!
Zhuoran.

Thank you Rod.... I changed the option to "Required - User must take the quiz to continue." Now the next is working .
Thank you for pointing the right direction. But one quick question.. will the above setting affect my assessment? I have set the pass percentage to 100%...
My next question - I have a open course menu (TOC). If the learner clicks the Knowledge check page, the knowledge check page is visible, but if you click any other page from knowledge check, it is not going...... by default, it takes to the next page. From that page, you can click any other page... IS this also related to the above option .. pls let me know..

Adobe Captivate 4 Answers not appearing on quiz slide

I have quiz slides in my project with single answer multiple choice questions.
Sometimes on my slides as they are playing the letters for the choices appear but the answers do not.
I hit the right button on my mouse and refresh the page and they appear.
Please let me know if there is something I can do to assure the answers appear all the time.
Thank you,
David Gambal

As far as I am aware, deleting or replacing the Question Title or Question Text captions in quiz questions in any version of Captivate will cause issues. So don't do it.
You do not need to always choose Optional as your Preferences > Quiz Settings > Required setting. But if you choose one of the other more restrictive options this drop down offers (Required, Pass Required, Answer All) then you may run into strange issues where your quiz seems to stall for no apparent reason, especially in situations where you try to Retake Quiz or move back and forth from quiz questions to content slides. I recommend you start with Optional, and then once you have everything working perfectly, try the other settings if you really feel the need. Personally, I never seem to use them.

Trying to go Back from quiz slides doesn't work. Why??

This problem was posted earlier today by another user, but no
one has submitted a solution:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=67&catid=464&threadid =1417905&enterthread=y
I'm having the same problem and hoping that re-posting will
knock the answer down from the trees.
Problem: I insert quiz slides at the end of my lesson file.
In the compiled file, once I reach the quiz slides, if I use use
the Back button, playbar, or menu to move back to an earlier slide,
I can no longer access the quiz slides. There is just no reaction
to pressing the Forward button or using the menu. The playbar jumps
past the quiz slides in both directions and doesn't even show the
numbering (18/25, etc) anymore for the quiz slides.
Does anyone have any insight as to why this is happening?
Thanks.

AFter some experimentation, discovered the following:
Go to Quiz > Quiz Preferences. Under Settings, there is a
"Allow user to review quiz" check box. Under Pass or Fail, there is
an "Infinite attempts" check box. I had both of these unselected.
Here's what happens when you select or deselect one or both:
Review + 1 attempt: User starts to answer questions, and then
backs up. User can go forward again. Answered questions still
display the answers. Once reaches unanswered questions, they are
now locked.
Review + Infinite: User starts to answer questions, and then
backs up. User can go forward again. All answers to questions
erased and user can answer all questions.
No Review + 1 attempt: User starts to answer questions, and
then backs up. User can't go forward again. (This was the situation
encountered.)
No Review + Infinite: Same as Review + Infinite.
