Quiz Timer Not Jumping to Score Slide for Submit All Quiz

I've followed the instructions for the TimeCheck advanced action posted by Lilybiri (http://lilybiri.posterous.com/timer-widget-to-stress-your-learners), but it doesn't work for me. Am wondering if it is because I am doing something wrong or because I have the Submit All option selected in the Quiz Preferences. Any ideas?
My goal is to have a countdown timer for a quiz that automatically jumps to the score slide when the time expires.

Hi,
It will not be functional anymore, because I checked and the variable associated with the Timer widget is not updated anymore. Moreover, one is limited in characters used for the variable., underscores are not possible anymore, variable always starts with a capital etc. I do not know what has changed in this widget, have been asking for an explanation but got no answer yet. For the moment the Timer widget is pretty useless if you want to do an action based on the value of the variable. I'm very sorry and should even check all posts about widgets (there are quite a lot there) to see if other similar problems occur.
My blog proves with the example and the screenshots that this work flow has been possible in the past. No tricks there.

  • Quiz Skip Button Jump to Another Slide that is not Next slide.

    Is it possible to make the Quiz Skip button jump to another slide besides the next slide? I'm using Captivate 7.
    Basically, I want the quiz slide to exit to another slide that is not the next slide.

    Branch aware is a totally different thing: it makes the quizzing variables dynamically adapting to the questions that are taken by the trainee.
    You are talking about the Skip button, which is puzzling because that button label was changed to Next since version 6. And Branch aware only appeared in 6. Which version are you using? You are talking about shapes so it must be 6 or later.
    Another question: do you allow Review? Because in that case you'll need that Next (Skip) button. http://blog.lilybiri.com/question-question-slides-in-captivate
    You are talking about a 'custom Skip button'? Can you explain, and also what you mean by the rollover shape? If you have a custom button it should be visible on the timeline of the slide, contrary to the default objects on question slides that are embedded and have no separate timeline. Or was the question master slide edited to add a rollover shape to the default Next button?

  • Jump to Slide not jumping to previous slides

    I have created a button to Jump to an earlier slide, but it
    does not jump to previous slides - only forward slides. Can anyone
    tell me how I can get it to go to a previous specified slide.
    Many thanks

    Hi YvonneK2005 and welcome to our community
    Click Quiz > Quiz Preferences... > Settings node. Is
    there a check mark in the check box labeled "Allow backward

    Open Media Encoder and add your Sequences:
    File > Add Premiere Pro Sequence
    Navigate to your Premiere Project and select it in the list.
    You can then select multiple Sequences from the Project (Ctrl+Click)
    and load them all at once into Media Encoder and apply
    the same encoding preset to all Sequences at the same time.

  • Using cpInfoElapsedTimeMS variable with Submit All quiz

    I've created a branching scenario with the cpInfoElapsedTimeMS variable to have my quiz time out after a set time and it works great if I don't have the Quiz Preferences set to Submit All. Because I must allow my learners to go back and review their answers before submitting to the LMS, I need to use the Submit All setting, which stops the variable from working properly. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    I put a query in a WAD or when I Execute a Query from the Query designer.  When I run the query the variable on the filter kicks in and it requests I select something e.g. cost centre. When I do the drop down in the variable to select a cost centre I dont get a list of cost centres. Only ?? where a cost centre should be. However when I select a ?? it does know what the cost cejtre is as it populates the variable with a cost centre. All the cost centre data is loaded etc.

  • Planned Delivery time not considered after MRP run for scheduling

    Dear All,
    After running MRP, the planned delivery time maintained in Purchase info record is not taken into consideration for calculating start date of the schedule line of externally procured material generated by the system.
    Planned delivery time is 3 days & Requirement of parent material falls on 15/02/2010. With this, system should calculate the start date for schedule line as on 12/02/2010 considering 3 days Planned Delivery time.
    Any idea as to what might have gone wrong?
    thx for your help in advance.
    Rgds,
    Ranjeet

    Hi,
    Determination of PLD from the Purchase info record is maintained in transaction code:OMDT. Planned Delivery time is also maintained in Scheduling agreement. However, it is not calculating delivery date as well as release date.

  • Quiz Variable Not Tracking Text Box Responses

    Hello Everyone,
         I am having a problem getting the Captivate Quiz variable to track correct responses from a text box. I am using Captivate 5 and trying to make a quiz where someone will enter in data that will be validated and branch off of their responses. I have set up several text boxes, turned on validating, checked the "Include in Quiz" box and the add to total and report answers boxes. See the pic below:
    I am trying to branch using an advanced action that checks the cpQuizInfoPointsscored variable and branches them based off their score. But the variable always shows 0! (I set up a text caption to display the variable as I went through to check.) Here is the weird part, I have the quiz results slide in the presentation, and IT accurately shows the results from the test boxes. But for some reason the Quiz Variable isn't tracking them! Any help??

    Hello and welcome to the forum,
    From your question I know that you are using CP5.0, correct? This 'bug' has been fixed in Captivate 5.5. Was one of the users who had insisted (by bug report) to have all Quizzing System variables updated after each question, and not only when the quiz was done, on the score slide; now you are bumping into this issue: the score in cpQuizInfoPointsscored will be tracked and will have the scores attached to the Text Entry Boxes or for any other scoreable object (all show up in the Advanced Interaction view - F9) but only at the score slide.
    I had a workaround in CP5 (have described it somewhere in an article or a blog post), using the Quizzing variable that IS updated after each question: cpQuizInfoLastSlidePointScored.
    If you want to have the functionality of CP5.5 you'll have to track the total score in a user variable by advanced actions. It is not really that hard, since you are already using advanced actions, step-by-step
    create a user variable v_currentscore
    on entering each question slide have this statement executed (if you do not have already an advanced action for this Enter event, and this is the only statement, better add Continue as second statement)
    Expression v_currentscore = v_currentscore + cpQuizInfoLastSlidePointScored
    now you can use this user variable for your check instead of cpQuizInfoPointsscored, you understand that it is only updated on the slide after the slide where the question is answered? Let me know if this is a problem

  • All Quiz Slides Automatically Changed (by captivate) when ANY change is made to a Quiz Slide

    When I make a change to a quiz slide, captivate automatically adds the "Back" button (which was previously deleted) to *all* quiz slides and extends *all* quiz slide length by several seconds. This is very frustrating to have to go back to every quiz slide (which are interspersed thought the project) to remove the "back" button and correct the slide length. Thoughts anyone?

    Did you read that blog post that I indicated in the other thread about questions?
    Default pausing point is at 1.5 secs. If you leave the Success/Last attempt action to default 'Continue' users have to wait 1.5secs, never 3 secs.
    If you want to reduce the time, you can drag the pausing point bit more to the right to decrement the non-active part (not totally till end). That is the best solution, especially if some users will have to work with restricted bandwidth. Or you use Go to Next Slide instead of Continue for the actions.

  • The answers questions not selectable in quiz slide for some users

    We have a SCORM Captivate training content published on our LMS (SAP Learning Solutions). Some users can't respond to any questions in the content.For these users, the answers are locked and are not selectable. Also, the Validate and Erase buttons didn't appear.
    The problem concerns about 10% of our users.
    This training contains both content slides and quiz slides.
    The content is published in SCORM 1.2 (SWF + HTML) with Adobe Captivate 5.5. We had the same problem for some users with the previous version of this training content published with Captivate 4.
    All users have the same settings:
    Flash Player 10.3.183.11
    Internet Explorer 6
    Microsoft Windows XP

    The most likely reason for this behaviour is that your 10% of users have entered the quiz and then thought they might jump back to the information slides to check the answer.  On doing so they have exited the quiz scope which immediately locks the quiz.
    Have you actually watched these problem users complete the quiz?  If you are able to do so, make sure that once they start the first question, they answer all quiz questions in turn without jumping to any other slides or leaving the quiz.  If my hunch is right, the person will be able to successfully complete the quiz.
    If the desire is to allow users to jump back to the content section to check information, place a scored button on the first or second slide of your project.  This extends the quiz scope and will mean that the user is still within the "quiz" no matter what slide they want to look at.

    In iOS 4, you could make separate photo slide shows with separate songs.

    Is there any way to fix this? This is something I use every day.
    I am on an iPad 2, 32gb, wifi...
    Thank you

    My Photos app works the same on iOS 5 as it did on iOS 4 i.e. I can have a different track for each album. When I select a track for a photo album I then start the slideshow so that it shows the first couple of photos with the track playing - I'm not sure it's necessary to start the slideshow but I always do and it remembers that track for that album.

  • Quiz Score Slide - Review Questions

    Hi all,
    I have put a number of discussions now and still can't seem to get this to work.
    Once a user has completed the quiz and got to the quiz score slide to find out if they have passed or failed - for both I would like them to be able to 'review answers'. I know there is a review quiz but this just tells them what they got wrong or right and not why.
    I have searched on Captivate and online to figure out how to make this work. I would like the user to be able to go through each slide and when there is a question they got wrong, there is an explanation for them.
    Is this possible and how do I do it?
    Thanks

    Hi there,
    You can have a slide as an explanation slide next to your quiz slides. You can use a conditional advanced action under On Enter property of the explanation slide. With the help of a variable called cpQuizInfoLastSlidePointScored, you will check whether the last answer was correct or not and have the explanation slide show/hide accordingly. For example, if each question in your project has 10 points associated. The variable will check whether the last question slide scored points were equal to 10, if yes then jump to next question slide and if no then go to the explanation slide.
    Here is how it will look in the advanced action window:
    Where Slide 4 is the next question slide and Slide 3 is the explanation slide.
    Hope this helps!
    Thanks!

  • Audio on last slide after quiz questions not playing

    Captivate v5.5
    I have a project with a question pool and a series of random questions
    The random question slides are without audio.
    After finishing the question pool the project closes with the final slide which does have some audio - which runs fine when I test the slide.
    However when I test the whole project (F12) the audio on the last slide does not play.
    The audio on the slides prior to the random question slides plays without any problem.
    Any ideas please?
    Noel

    Anjaneai,
    Thanks for the suggestion. But changing the question setting to infinite attempts will just allow the user to retry each question over and over until they get it correct. I want to give them one chance to answer each question for the entire quiz. Then, if they don't pass, they can try the entire quiz again.
    I ended up finding a resolution, though. Based on one of the suggestions from this blog, I just shortened my slide time for each question to .5 sec (it was originally 3 sec). That seemed to do the trick!

  • Quiz Will Not Allow for Backward Movement

    I have a short 10 page presentation, on page 5 I have a single question.  It is optional, I have it marked for backward movement, it does not show a score afterwards.  When I publish, I can work my way through all pages, however, when I go backwards, I get stuck at the quiz screen, it will not allow me to go back to pages prior to the quiz.  Any suggestions?

    Hi kirkisbetter,
    As per my understanding , you are facing the following 2 issues :
    Issue 1 : You are not able to see the score (Result Slide)at the end
    Issue 2 : Backward movement from the quiz slide.
    We would like to suugest you to follow the steps as mentioned below to resolve the above issues :
    Suggestion for Issue 1:
    Once you delete the result slide from the presentation, then for the result slide to reappear , please go to Quiz -> Manage -> Select the Quiz. The Quiz Settings dialog appears. Make sure the "Show Score at the end of the quiz" option is enabled and then click on OK.
    You can now see the result slide in your presentation.
    Suggestion for Issue 2:
    Once you come to the Quiz slide then you come to the quiz pane in place of the outline pane. In the quiz pane , you can see slides which are presnet after the question slide.
    In order to go backwards from question slide, you need to use the backward button available in the playbar or use the Thumb tab in the right side panel. Once you browse to one slide before the question slide,then you can again see the Outline tab in your right slide pane which lists all the slides available in the presenation.
    We hope this resolves the issue.
    If you are still facing the problem then please do let us know with the exact steps and if possible please share the project file which causes this issue.
    Thanks,

  • Fail Quiz - Retake jumps to wrong slide

    After they fail the quiz, I have the retake button jump back to the review slide, but instead it jumps back to the middle of the course. I've tried setting it as slide 1 and slide 89 and it still jumps back to slide 56. Anyone had this issue before?

    Yes, that is exactly it. It is jumping back to an interaction. I
    have the settings set to NOT score interactions, just the quiz. Is there a way around this?
