Slide Views and Completion

I cap 2, in quiz manager reporting, I select Report
Complete/Incomplete and then I select Report slide views only (set
at 100%). Is this theoretically causing the SCO to be reported as
complete if all slides are viewed?
Help doesn't say about the slides option.

I am publishing to SCORM 4.
The tool I am using is Redbird Software's
Trident.
http://www.scormsoft.com/
I feel that still has a bit more development to be done to be
as newbie-friendly as it could be (mainly with regard to help
files) but I am starting to get the hang of it. You still have to
know a good bit about how SCORM works. Some nice features, though.
Our LMS vendor is still struggling to get their SCORM player
sorted, so I have yet to do a formal test there. However, the
output runs with the ADL test environment.

BUG?! "Last Slide Viewed" in Flash Export NOT WORKING!!!

Am I missing something? In Keynote, I create an object, assign a hyperlink to "Last slide viewed" and export the file to Flash/SWF.
Lo! Behold! The "Last slide viewed" hyperlinks are not working! I tried it on objects AND text, but nothing works.
Do you know a work-around or is this a hard bug?
I don't have to tell you the whole project is getting ready to be flushed...
Thanks in advance for any help!

I wouldn't call it a bug, more like something Apple just didn't implement. I mean, I have to wonder how hard it would have been to write a flash file that itself (not Keynote) tracks where the viewer is and remembers their last "slide"
Personally, I think the flash export on Keynote should NOT be one of its selling points. If you need a serious flash movie, it's best to just use flash.

SCORM 1.2 and Saba - Reporting a 0 Score for Track Slide views

Good morning,
We have just transitioned over to our new LMS, Saba. To say the transition has been rocky would be an understatement. So, here is what I am dealing with:
I have a very basic reader course where I want to grant someone credit once they have viewed all slides. I am using SCORM 1.2 and setting either "User Access Only" or "Slide Views Only." If I use slide views, I set it to 1, it sends a 0 score to the LMS, even if the user views all slides. I have been able to create a fix by assigning a point value to a click box or button at the screen where I want the user to get credit. However, this does not seem to be what was intended.
Below are screen shots of my publishing commands, Saba screens, and communication report between Saba and CP.

I would suggest you try using Percent instead of Score, and set the Slide View completion percentage to 100 instead of 1.
Change Reporting Level to Score instead of Interactions and Score.
You haven't shown the screen for Quiz > Pass or Fail settings, but you need to set the passing percentage there to 100% as well if you intend that the learner must view every single slide.
Bear in mind that when using slide views, if you have any navigation buttons on the slides that are set to jump to the next slide when clicked, then the learner does not get a completion mark for those slides. In Captivate you have to watch a slide all the way to the last frame in order to get it marked as completed. If for some reason you need to get slides marked as completed despite not being viewed (e.g. when using branching) then you can use our TickTOC widget to gain credit for those slides that are missed or not watched to the end.
http://www.infosemantics.com.au/ticktoc
If you suspect that not all slides will be viewed, you can adjust the Pass/Fail percentage to something less than 100% to allow for the missed ones.
Try these changes and see if it works.
Once you DO find the settings that allow Captivate to work with SABA I would be very interested to know what they were. I've got a page on my website where I want to show the Captivate config settings for SABA: http://www.infosemantics.com.au/lms_guide/saba I don't have access to this LMS myself, but perhaps you or other SABA users on this forum can contribute information to make it easier for others to work with it.

LMS not reporting complete for slide views

Hi,
I am trying to get my captivate projects to report competion status as complete to the LMS based on slide views. For testing I have created a very simple two slide Captivate. Both slides have 3 second durations, one caption each and nothing else, so the whole project runs for 6 seconds without any pauses, quizes or interactions of any kind. I have used SCORM cloud to view the SCORM calls being made by the package, and it is not reporting completion to the LMS.
I am using the following settings in reporting:
Any help will be really appreciated. Im about to watch http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/event/index.cfm?event=set_registered&id=1775550&loc=en_us to see if that can help. My backup plan is to put an interaction on the last slide but that's going to mess with my quiz results for the projects that do include quizzes (This is also why im reporting Quiz Results and Slide Views).
Note: with these settings, passing a quiz causes the captivate to report completion.
Thanks for any help

I'm not sure of this and defer to any contrary/additional replies that may follow...but...
Past versions of CP have required some sort of scored interaction in order for the lesson to properly report via SCORM to the LMS.
If you have a CP lesson without any scored interactions (no 'reporting'), that may be why completion is being recorded to the LMS.
SO try setting up one scored interaction as you suggest.
For CP lessons that do have quizzes, you won't need that separate scored interaction.
You'll also likely want to change you settings to just 'Slide Views Only' if you just want completion reported based on them viewing the whole project, and I suspect Slide View Completion should be 100, not 10...
Let us know how that goes...

Tracking slide view completions in LMS - varies with Browser

Hi
I have a captivate 4 module which is published to SCORM 1.2. The module has no quiz as the customer just wishes to know when all slides have been viewed. So have published using the Report Status - Complete, Report to LMS - percent, Report Data - slide views only, slideview completion 100%.
When runing from an LMS the reporting shows correctly i.e 1 instance of complete unless you look at the detailed tracking in which case you see all slides viewed. But this is browser dependant, works fine in IE7 and 8, but in IE6 and Chrome you just get the full list of every slide viewed. Any ideas what might be causing this? Obvoiusly I'd like the customer to just have the summary all complete, but typically they have IE6 or Chrome.
Thanks

You might want to see this link.
I have personally use it on our projects created with Cp3 and Cp4 but haven't tried it with Cp5.5. And no score is being sent in our LMS.
Let me know how will it behave with Cp5.5.
Hope this helps.

Acrobat ignores my PowerPoint Print Layout Notes Pages view and gives me regular slides PDF.

I have written a presentation in PowerPoint in the usual PowerPoint slide view. Now I want to print the presentation as a manual or booklet.
For this I go to the Print File Print page.
I select Print Layout > Notes Pages and click Print.
Acrobat creates a PDF only of the Full Page Slides. It ignores my change of print layout before creating the PDF.
I have tried printing to file (PostScript *prn). The prn is the slides view.
I could maybe create an image of every slide, and try pdfing it that way? But the file is 100 (slides) long. Anyone see an easier way of doing this?
Thanks in advance for any input,

Based on your description, I assume you are running on a Windows system with both Office and Acrobat installed.
There are three ways of producing PDF from PowerPoint in this situation.
The first method is to use the Save as Adobe PDF / PDFMaker solution that doesn't involve printing at all. It produces the highest quality PDF of all three methods, but the options for this allow the notes only to come out as PDF annotations in a separate,hide-able layer, not as the full Notes Pages format, regardless of the current settings for displaying the PowerPoint file on screen. You can see the annotations in comments pane in the comments tool. This isn't what you want.
The second method is to use the Microsoft Save as function and specify PDF instead of a .PPT or .PPTX file. If you press Options, one of the options is to publish the Notes Pages instead of just the Slides. That will give you what you want, but Microsoft's generated PDF is somewhat wonky, often generating invalid PDF with improper font references and other problems too numerous to get into here.
The third method is to print to the Adobe PDF PostScript printer driver instance. The secret here is that under Settings, instead of selecting the default Print All Slides, you need to select Notes Pages. In other words, the print function ignores the view you currently have on the screen. The only problem with this approach is that the resultant PDF file is not nearly as high a quality as the PDF produced by Save as Adobe PDF, but it should probably be sufficient for your needs.
That having been said, I will submit a request internally to “beef up” our Save as Adobe PDF to provide an option for the Notes Pages as an alternative to putting out the notes as annotations.
Please advise if this solves your issue.

I set computer sleep to 3hrs and let it export over night and the furthest i've gotten is 66% Exported! Why is it taken so long and seem to stop but the activity status goes up ever so slowley???? Im using an iMac 7,1 2.4 GHz with 6GB of memory running 10.8.2 what am I doing wrong???

Rendering will take a very long time - I once needed 6 hours for a shorter high definition movie with plenty of effects.
What theme are you using and what settings?
The "places" theme needs a good network connection.
And the finished movie will need plenty of disk space.
And the finished movie will need plenty of disk space. Have you checked the available space on your disk?
What exactly happens when Aperture fails to render the movie? Are there any diagnostics, error messages in the console window, that relate to Aperture? Does Aperture alway stop at the same image or video clip?
if all fails, you could render your slideshow in two parts and combine the two videos on your DVD.

Make pictures slide in and out of view?

Hello! I have created an xml slide show and currently when one presses the next or back btns then the next or previous image will come on screen. I am trying to make it where when one presses next the next image will slide on the screen from the right side and stop at the center while the previous image slides off to the left side. I am posting the code that I have currently but I am not sure where to take it from here.
I am fairly new to AS as a note.
var xmlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("imageData.xml");
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(xmlRequest);
var imgData:XML;
var imageLoader:Loader;
var rawImage:String;
var rawH:String;
var rawW:String;
var imgNum:Number = 0;
var checkSec:Timer = new Timer(100);
var numberOfChildren:Number;
var vx:Number = 0;
var ax:Number = 0;
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, xmlLoadedF);
btnNext.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextImgF);
btnNext.buttonMode = true;
btnBack.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, prevImgF);
btnBack.buttonMode = true;
function xmlLoadedF (event:Event):void{
     checkSec.start();
     checkSec.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, checkerF);
     imgData = new XML(event.target.data);
function packagedF():void{
     checkSec.removeEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, checkerF);
     rawImage = imgData.image[imgNum].imgURL;
     numberOfChildren = imgData.*.length();
     rawW = imgData.image[imgNum].imgW;
     rawH = imgData.image[imgNum].imgH;
     imageLoader = new Loader;
     imageLoader.load(new URLRequest(rawImage));
     master_mc.addChild(imageLoader);
     imageLoader.x = (stage.stageWidth - Number(rawW)) /2;
     imageLoader.y = (stage.stageHeight - Number(rawH)) /5;
function checkerF(event:TimerEvent):void {
     if (imgNum == 0) {
          packagedF();
     }else if(imgNum < numberOfChildren) {
          packagedF();
     }else{
          imgNum = 0;
          packagedF();
function nextImgF(event:MouseEvent):void {
     checkSec.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, checkerF);
     imgNum++;
function prevImgF(event:MouseEvent):void {
     checkSec.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, checkerF);
     imgNum--;
I was able to manage getting the image to come on screen and slide off to the right or left with onEnterFrame but not with the use of a btn. And then my code for the buttons did not work any more. Here is the basic code I used for that (just the basic added code not included in the above code). I also modified the above a little to fit this code but here it is so you get the idea:
private var vx:Number = 0;
private var ax:Number = .2;
//this was included at the end of the- function packageF():void {
        addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onEnterFrame);
private function onEnterFrame(event:Event):void {
        vx += ax;
        imageLoader.x += vx;
I am probably doing this totally wrong and not going in the right direction.
Can you pls help me? Thanks in advance!

Hey thanks! Tween was just the tool and works well now. The first eases on stage from the left and when I press the btnNext the image on stage eases out to the left and the next image eases on from the right.
This leads to my next question.... When I add the btnBack it goes all funky.. the image that went off stage to the left comes back on stage from the left but then the next image on the right comes on stage at the same time! I am trying to get the image that went off stage to the left when I pressed next to come back on stage and the current picture that is on screen to go back off the the right.
Here is my code thats working with tween but not on the back btn:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
var xmlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("imageData.xml");
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(xmlRequest);
var imgData:XML;
var imageLoader:Loader;
var rawImage:String;
var rawH:String;
var rawW:String;
var inTween:Tween
var outTween:Tween
var imgNum:Number = 0;
var checkSec:Timer = new Timer(100);
var numberOfChildren:Number;
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, xmlLoadedF);
btnNext.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextImgF);
btnBack.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, prevImgF);
btnNext.buttonMode = true;
btnBack.buttonMode = true;
function xmlLoadedF (event:Event):void{
     checkSec.start();
     checkSec.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, checkerF);
     imgData = new XML(event.target.data);
function packagedF():void{
     checkSec.removeEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, checkerF);
     rawImage = imgData.image[imgNum].imgURL;
     numberOfChildren = imgData.*.length();
     rawW = imgData.image[imgNum].imgW;
     rawH = imgData.image[imgNum].imgH;
     imageLoader = new Loader;
     imageLoader.load(new URLRequest(rawImage));
     master_mc.addChild(imageLoader);
     imageLoader.x = (stage.stageWidth - Number(rawW)) /1.65;
     imageLoader.y = (stage.stageHeight - Number(rawH)) /5;
     inTween = new Tween(imageLoader, "x", Regular.easeInOut, 1500, (stage.stageWidth - Number(rawW)) /1.65, 1.5, true);
     imageLoader.scaleX = .8;
     imageLoader.scaleY = .8;
function checkerF(event:TimerEvent):void {
     if (imgNum == 0) {
          packagedF();
     }else if(imgNum < numberOfChildren) {
          packagedF();
     }else{
          imgNum = 0;
          packagedF();
function nextImgF(e:MouseEvent):void {
     checkSec.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, checkerF);
     outTween = new Tween(imageLoader, "x", Regular.easeInOut, (stage.stageWidth - Number(rawW)) /1.65, -1200, 1.5, true);
     imgNum++;
function prevImgF(e:MouseEvent):void {
     checkSec.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, checkerF);
     outTween = new Tween(imageLoader, "x", Regular.easeInOut, -1200, (stage.stageWidth - Number(rawW)) /1.65, 1.5, true);
     imgNum--;
So, whats the deal here? I must be missing something like a listener or something. Not sure what. Can you pls help?
Thanks!

Materialized view (creating and complete refresh)

Good day.
I have a huge query that is used to create a materialized view. The query consist of 9 joins, a lot of aggregations, some subqueries, so we can say it is rather huge. The query itself executes for about 30 seconds and returns about 200 rows. The materialized view creates and refreshes for more than 30 minutes. Can someone please explain me the mechanism of materialized view creation which causes such bad performance.
We use Oracle Database 9.2.0.4.
Thank you in advance.

I've fount the solution. May be it will be useful for someone not regarding that 9.2 database is less used today than 10.2.
I studied carefully the plan of the query and the plan of insert statement that is used when creating materialized view and found the cause of trouble. Insert statements generates VIEW PUSHED PREDICATE and BITMAP CONVERSION FROM ROWIDS when parsing. Bitmap conversion can be removed by setting environment parameter btree_bitmap_plans to false (a well-known issue), but I decided not ot change the production environment. The pushed predicate can be removed by using hint NO_PUSH_PRED to each subquery used in a materialized view. This step reduced the time of materialized view creation and execution to about a minute.
Thank everyone who tried to help.

Completely new to lab view and need to get some stop watch help please

OK I am new to lab view so please be patient with me. I have a need for a stop watch that is triggered to start when two voltage values differ by more than 0.110V and then stop counting when they return to within 0.110v my goal is to capture the total amount of time the two voltages differ and record it along with the rest of the data is this possible and how would I do it? Thanks I am running 8.5

But the good news is I am now looking into taking one of the Lab view courses but that probably won't help me with this problem this week. thanks again for your help
For starters, try to write the name correctly. It is LabVIEW, not lab view.
Seriously though, your best way of learning to is try some things yourself first. Look through the examples that ship with LabVIEW for the components Raven suggested (while loops, shift registers, etc.) We could give you a working example but you will learn far more by trying things for yourself. As suggested, try a few things and then post what you have done and what you are having trouble with. From there we can answer your questions rather than just do it for you.

Slide views only to be reported, but grade is reporting to lms as 0 instead of n/a

My client has a number of quiz questions throughout their course. They asked that the quiz be set up to allow infinite attempts until the learner gets the answer right, and that there are no points or grade associated with the quiz. I've set up each question as a quiz question, but set the grade to be 0. I did it as a quiz question as there are matching type questions, multiple choice, etc. and I found it valuable to have the structure in place to add in the content. The reporting preferences are set up as to report back slide views only, but when this file communicates with the LMS, it is reporting back a pass/complete but giving a grade of 0. I'd like it to show up as n/a under the grade rather than 0.
Also, this course isn't booking marking and learners aren't happy because when they go back in their answers aren't saving. As well, the client wanted backward movement to be allowed but when the learner clicks the back button to go back through the slides, it automatically resets the question slides and they have to re-answer them to continue. Is there a way to change a setting so that the answers will stay in place?
And my last question (promise, sorry for so many) under the quiz settings and then required there are 4 options. I'm just wondering if anyone can explain these 4 options and what each do, so that I can make sure I'm selecting the best one. Up until now it's been a trial/error type of thing, but it would be great if anyone can share some additional info.

Thanks so much! I'm the only one working in Captivate, and so I can't even tell you how helpful it is to have replies and people that understand what I'm asking.

Captivate 5.5 is setting a Mastery Score in the Manifest when using Slide Views

We have encountered a problem with Captivate 5.5 where it is setting the Mastery Score in the manifest to match the Quiz score setting even though we are only using slide views to track completion. This is a problem because if we set the score to zero, our Saba LMS will immediately grant the user credit for the course on the first slide. If we set the score higher than zero, the user will never get credit for the course as Captivate doesn't send a score to the LMS when using slide views to track completion. Our LMS seems to ignore the status passed by the course once the Mastery Score is set. We have compared the manifest behavior in 5.0 and it does NOT set the Mastery Score. We can edit the manifest prior to loading in the LMS but this is a hassle and we'd like to figure out a way to permanently change the behavior to no longer set Mastery Score when using Slide Views to track completion.

Hi,
I believe the easiest way to do this is to edit the manifest.xml file in the Captivate Templates folder. I posted instructions on doing that here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/956390?tstart=0
Hope this solves your issue. V

Setting SCORM 1.2 to force a mastery score in the manifest even when only slide views are used to tr

I have some courses that use only slide views to track completion, because the quizzes are set as separate elements in the LMS we are using (from Oracle PeopleSoft). The LMS people are telling me they require a masteryscore of 0 to be included in the SCORM manifest file when using slide views. However, when the manifest files are created, there is no mastery score included in the manifest.
Is there a way to force Captvate 6 to publish a mastery score in the SCORM manifest even when the completion criteria are 80% slide views?

I am not sure, but you can always unzip the SCORm package and add the masteryscore by hand
In your manifest there should be an organizations section like this. Add <adlcp:masteryscore> under the <item> tag
<organization identifier="org-ident">
<title>Course Title</title>
<item identifier="some_id_1" identifierref="some_id_1-1" isvisible="true">
<title>Course Title</title>
<adlcp:masteryscore>0</adlcp:masteryscore>
</item>
</organization>
</organizations>
The above example has a single SCO with an ID of "some_id_1-1" an activity id of "some_id_1" and a masteryscore of 0. The masteryscore can be between 0 an 100

Reporting slide views only

Using Captivate 5 and my courses will be published to an SAP LMS and I'd like to give a passing mark when the student has viewed the entire course instead of requiring them to get the quiz questions correct.
Initially, I was making the last forward navigation part of the score, but I am wondering if Slide Views Only will work. If I have 20 slides in my lesson and set that to 20, can that be used to impart a complete or pass mark?

Hello Darren,
I'm using another LMS, so not sure that this works for all! And moreover, I'm not sure that a slide is considered as viewed if its total timeline has not played. That happens often in a CP-file, just an example: if you insert a button, with as Success action 'Go to Next Slide', the part of the timeline after the pausing point will not be played, thus the slide will not be considered as totally viewed.
Is this a linear course or do you allow to go Back? I have proposed a solution somewhere in a thread, by creating a user variable as a counter, that will be incremented whenever a slide is visited for the first time (on Enter event, because that will always be executed, which is not the case for On Exit). And activate a button on the last slide with a score that will be only made visible when the counter has reached the total amount of slides. If this score is set as passing score, this should work with any SCORM-compliant LMS.
