Reg Drag and Drop Feedback in Captivate 7

Hi,
I have a drag and drop in a slide (Captivate 7) as a knowledge check.
Problem: I need a drag and drop interaction's correct feedback to reset when the learner returns to the drag and drop slide later or clicks the back button from the next slide. Currently the correct feedback is present.
Background: The learner completes the drag and drop and gets the 'Correct!' feedback from show action and 'Incorrect' feedback from the existing captivate failure feedback. The learner then continues the lesson by going to the next slide. The problem is that, if the learner returns to the drag and drop, the 'Correct!' feedback still shows even though the drag source items have reset to their original locations and the learner can redo the drag and drop interaction. Clicking the 'Reset' button does not remove the existing 'Correct!' feedback. Even if the learner redoes the interaction and does the opposite (e.g. if the learner got it wrong the first time, but then gets it correct this second time), the existing feedback does not change from 'Correct.'
Any ideas on how to fix this? I understand we have to create advanced actions. Please tell me the exact steps in this instance and whether i have to execute the actions on enter or exit.
Note: I tired to read the posts related to this. But creating the advanced options step was not given.
Thank you.

OK. Just asking because I saw one of the Adobe people chime in on a similar question a day or two back.
Unlike quiz questions, the Success and Failure Captions for drag and drop interactions appear to have Item Names which suggests they can be hidden via Advanced Actions. You should try setting an On Slide Enter action to hide them and see if that resolves your issue.

How do I create a drag and drop interaction using Captivate 8?

I cannot figure out how to create a drag and drop interaction in Captivate 8. Options to do this are greyed-out.

You can only use D&D in normal projects, not in responsive projects.

Flash Drag and Drop Template in Captivate. *HELP*

Good morning.
I am attempting to use the drag and drop learning interaction
that comes pre-packaged with Flash CS3 and import it into Captivate
for use in a Captivate based e-learning exercise.
I create the drag and drop just fine in Flash, and it looks
perfect when I publish it in Flash, etc.
When I attempt to use the EXACT same SWF in Captivate,
however, it does not work. I can move the drags around the screen,
but they will not "drop" where they are supposed to.
Thinking maybe I broke the template, I went ahead and just
imported it 100% unchanged from Flash into Captivate (without me
messing around with it changing things around) and it does the
exact same thing.
I have successfully used my own homemade flash "widgets" in
Captivate, to include like click and reveal type interactions...for
whatever reason, though, I can't get this one to work, even though
I know it works perfectly in Flash.
The .swf file was developed using ActionScript 2.0 in Flash
and I tried publishing it with Flash 9 and Flash 8 as the setting,
both do the same thing.
Help!!!?
Thanks.
Rob

Hi R
Note that the Border simply adds space to the project so the
playback controls aren't covering part of your movie. Assuming you
want that to continue AND have a playback control, you might resize
the project so the playback control is included in the main movie
as well as being placed in an area that doesn't possibly obscure
any screen activity.
Cheers... Rick

Drag and drop objects in Captivate 4

Hi,
Is it possible to have a user click and drag an object on a slide in captivate 4?
For e.g. - in a matching type-quiz, instead of creating the usual quiz - I want a user to click and place the correct object in the correct box. Can this effect be achieved?
Thanks!

With either (or both) of these Drag and Drop widgets, yes: http://www.infosemantics.com.au/dragdrop

How do I add a progress monitor to a drag and drop question in captivate 7

I need to build a quiz. We have spent a lot of time on the style guide and appearance but I am having difficulty adding a progress monitor to my drag and drop questions. How can I do this?

A Drag&Drop is not a normal question slide, hence that progress indicator is not added, and it wouldn't even be functional.
Long time ago I explained how to create a custom progress indicator, maybe it can help you: Customized Progress Indicator - Captivate blog

Is there a way to create drag and drop activities in Captivate 4?

Or in any version of Captivate for that matter?
I haven't see that there is that functionality, but maybe it is there and I didn't realize it.
Thanks!

Hello,
You can try to use the default Matching Question slide where dragging is possible.
If you want more functionalities, have a look at the interactive Drag&Drop widget by InfoSemantics (my fav) or the Dag&Drop Lite Question widget:

How to add Two incorrect feedbacks in Drag and drop in captivate 7.

Hi
I want to show two different incorrect feedback in drag and drop interaction in Captivate 7. Currently we can show only one even though i have increased the drag and drop attempts to 2. I want to show a try again feedback and incorrect feedback with correct options and this should not be there when the learner re-visits this slide.
Note: I am already using a success caption and have executed the action - "On Enter" to "Hide" this success caption.
Please help me with this.

Hi Sreekanth,
You understanding is correct. But,it is not even necessary to show the correct sources on correct targets along with the feedback... the correct option numbers in incorrect feedback will do.
reg point number 3, if I revisit the slide, the feedback are still displayed. For example, in this case, I added a correct feedback, but when I revisit the slide, the feedback was still appearing. So I added this action "On Enter" to "Hide" this success caption. So that is why i told specifically that none of the feed backs should be there when i revisit the slide.
Sorry Srikanth - I am not familiar with the advanced actions or variables. I have just used some from referring the examples from net. that's all

Cannot change target sound in drag and drop to "no sound" once a default sound is selected in Captivate 8

I was trying out all the options for a drag and drop interaction in Captivate 8 and selected one of the default sounds for a target. I want to change it back to "no sound", but the selection never sticks. Is there something I'm missing or is this a "feature"?

When you go to the “Format” tab of the drag and drop properties, there is an option called “audio” (right below the “depth” option).
It has default sounds you can pick (sound1, sound2, sound3, and incorrect sound). Or you can browse to an audio file. If I select one of the default sounds, and then decide not to use any sound, it will not change to the “none” option. I have to delete the drag and drop interaction and start over.

Captivate 8 Drag and Drop

I am looking for a solution and came across this unanswered question:
"For the drag and drop actions in Captivate 8, is there a way to indicate wrong answers on submit? Or, is there a way to only reset incorrect answers on reset? (I know this wasn't an available option on earlier versions.) I am trying to indicate when one drag source to drag target connection was incorrectly made by using a smart shape to highlight the drop target. I am unsure of how to create an advanced action to make this display only when the answer is incorrect, (as well as for other incorrect targets). Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated."
Any insight on this? I work with wounded veterans, many of them with TBIs, and would like to include this in the activities I am creating.
Thank you!

You need to use the object actions, which are triggered when a drag source is dropped on a target. Those actions can populate user variables, perhaps Booleans (only value 0 or 1 possible): set the variable to 0 if wrong drop action, set it to 1 for correct action. Then you'll have to create a conditional action to be fired by the Submit button. That action should check the value of each variable and show previously hidden checkmarks or highlights for the incorrect answers.
There is no way to only reset incorrect answers.

The drag and drop functionality is grayed out in Captivate 8. How do I turn this on?

I'm trying to play with drag and drop functionality in Captivate 8, but it's grayed out. All the tutorials I've watched show it working, but in my project, I can't access it. Any ideas?

I asked about this in another thread, to add a list of what is NOT supported in responsive projects to the documentation:
objects detected by the HTML5 tracker
Drag&Drop as you discovered
line shape
free polygon shape
This is my list. Answer in another thread from the staff was: what is dimmed, grayed out is not available. Not a pleasant way to discover limitations, although I understand not everything could be implemented in this very first version of Captivate responsive design functionality.

Drag and drop technology

Is it possible to drag and drop images in Captivate 3 to
recreate assembling an object. What I would like to create is an
assessment that requries the learner to build something from the
components they just learned about. There is a proper way to
assemble it so failure captions would be necessary or something
that indicates to them if they assembled it correctly. I am
doubtful but thought I would ask.

Hi AW corp
Fellow Adobe Community Expert Paul Dewhurst has a Drag and
Drop widget he created. You may view it by
clicking
here.
Paul's widget proves it is indeed possible, but you will find
you can't do it using Captivate alone. You will have to create
something in Flash or Swish, then drop that into a slide as an
animation object.

Captivate 7 Drag And Drop

Hello All,
I have been playing with Drag And Drop and was trying to set a question up where I had 10 drag-able items which had 6 correct answers. What I was wondering is there was a way to allow multiple attempts to drag the correct answers while having feedback let the user know how many they currently have correct.
Is that possible? Of do we have to set each answer up to report as correct choice as they drop them into the drop-zone? I have a sample set up where I can continually drag and drop items into the answer area, but it will only tell me I am wrong, it wont tell me how many correct items I have placed.
I hope I have made sense.
Any insight would be great.
Thanks a bunch.

Hi there,
You can achieve this in Captivate 7 by enabling the following settings,
1. Select all the 10 Drag source objects and mark them as Sources, mark target as well.
2. Create a 'Custom Type' called 'Correct answers’; mark all the 6 correct sources as the type 'Correct Answers'.
3. Create a Correct answer link between 'Correct Answers' to target with the count 6. (You can do it either on stage or can do it in the Correct Answers' dialog).
4. Enable 'Redrag the dropped source option' from 'Drag and Drop>Interaction Properties' accordion (This setting allows to Drag out the dropped source)
5. De select 'Send Drag source to original position’ from 'Drag And Drop>Interaction Properties' accordion (This setting allows to place the dragged out source anywhere on stage)
6. Enable 'Auto Submit Correct Answers' option from 'Drag And Drop>Options' accordion. (This settings allows to auto submit the answers whenever the user places all the 6 correct sources correctly on target)
7. Insert Text caption on stage, Uncheck 'Visible in Output' option.
8. Set on Success action for the interaction as Show> Text caption inserted in Step 7. (On success action gets executed 'On drop' of the 6th correct source' and shows the above inserted caption. You can modify the Caption text to give the correct feedback)
You can move the submit button out of stage in case if you don’t want the user to submit an incorrect answer.
Hope this resolves the issue.
Thanks,
Nimmy Sukumaran.

Captivate Drag and Drop Functionality

Please could someone confirm when Captivate will ship with drag and drop functionality as standard rather than as an extension only available to subscription or ASA users?
Thanks.

Adobe doesn't usually give any advance confirmation dates for when they will ship a new product version or patch.

Drag and Drop in Captivate 6

Hi,
I have a Corporate licenced version of Captivate 6. I would like to know how to use the Drag and Drop interaction.
Thanking you.
With regards
Leena

Which version of Captivate 6 do you have? Drag and drop activity is included in Captivate 6.1 onwards. For earlier versions, your best bet would be to buy Infosemantics widget here:

Captivate 7 Drag and Drop is crashing Safari in iOS7, is this a know issue? Is there a fix?

This is on an iPad 3, iOS7 version 7.1.1
The Drag and Drop functions properly in Chrome, IE9, and iOS6 so I'm assuming everything is set up correctly. The scene loads, then after a second or two closes Safari.
Captivate 7
Version 7.0.1.237
Windows 7

Though I would still like an answer to this question, I do have a workaround...
Instead of setting the target objects actions to Play Audio, set the actions to execute an advanced action consisting of two statements: Play Audio and Assign CpCmdPause to 1.
