Smartform as Button in Hotspot Question - Captivate 8

If I add a Smartform as Button to an Hotspot Question, the Button seems to have no function.
The Button is not in the Hotspotarea, it is outside.
I created several Buttons with different actions attached to it but nothing works.

Shape buttons can be used on most question slides, but not on Hotspot Questions. My suspicion is that because Hotspot needs clicks in places, that the whole slide is reserved for possible clickable hotspots. And because Question slide objects are always on top of any other object, the shape button can not function. Even if you limit clicks only on Hotspots. Sorry, nothing for question slides has changed in CP8, was the same in CP7.

Interactive Script Editor: add answer and buttons in a question

Hi gurus,
I'm working on CRM 7.0 with Internet Explorer v7.0.6002.18005, and I'm interested on creating an "answer" in the Interactive Script Editor.
Details of the issue:
1) I am able to create questions
2) I pushed the button "add answer area" and a grey box appeared under the question text area
3) I pushed also the button "add button area" and another grey box appeared under the answer area
4) I created a button z_button that is now listed under the menu "Answer" in the repository, like other standard buttons (i.e. Yes, No, Aendrern...)
5) we could not create any standalone answer. The "create new" button just lists options as follows: field, objection, question, action, command button, script. As you can see, the system doesn't let me create any answer.
PROBLEM NUMBER 1: insert a button in my question:
I can drag this button in the grey button area, but i cannot drop it! No way at all...how can I insert a command button in my question?
PROBLEM NUMBER 2: insert an answer in my question:
I can drag any already existing standard question (fields like Customer Name, etc) in the grey answer area, but I cannot drop it.
How can I insert an answer in my question?
Is there anybody out there that can help, please? I have no clue...I'm loosing sleep on this.
I already watched also the video [http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/elearn?rid=/library/uuid/b08ceba5-87b9-2c10-4e96-d1c9ca33453c|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/elearn?rid=/library/uuid/b08ceba5-87b9-2c10-4e96-d1c9ca33453c] and I see it's possibile to do what I need.
Thank you so much,
Vicky

Captivate 8: How to add a button onto a question slide to invoke some java script?

I have some question slides where the user has to guess an item on a picture. Because the picture is very small, I want to add a zoom button which calls a function in my LMS to popup the picture in a bigger window. I could not find a way to add a button where I can call java script, so I tried to solve this by using a smart shape with option "use as button" set and adding the java script action. This works fine for the popup but now the submit button on the slide no longer works. Clicking the submit button just disables the answers and stays on the current slide even if I did not click onto the shape button previously. How can I achieve my goal to display a bigger picture of an image on my slide on the users request?
I also tried the "ImageView" widget, but this is not a practicable solution.
Thanks,
Martin

I think I found the solution: In the "Timing" tab for the shape there is an option "Pause After" which was set to 1,5 seconds. I cleared this options and now the submit button is working again.

Retake Quiz button not resetting questions

Hi all
I have a quiz with 7 questions, all single-answer questions.
When the quiz results are displayed, the Retake Quiz button is displayed if they have failed the quiz.
Upon clicking Retake Quiz, it takes me back to the start of the quiz, however, the previous answers given have not been reset and the question is greyed out.
I've been reading various posts on here, indicating that similar things are happening, however I couldn't find the reason with the quiz settings that I have:
Quiz is set to Answer All.
Quiz is set to Allow Backward Movement.
Quiz is set to allow 100 attempts on the quiz.
Quiz is set to display Retake Button.
Each quiz question is set to allow 1 attempt.
I thought that by increasing the number of attempts allowed on each question that this would solve it, but this just allows me to keep trying on each question until I hit the right answer, and does not seem to solve the problem.
I'm really not sure as to why, when using the Retake Quiz button, it is not resetting the quiz.
Any help greatly appreciated!
regards
Loraine

Hi again
I have now changed the settings in the quiz as per Lilybiri's suggestion. I now have the following quiz settings in place:
Quiz is set to Required - the user must take the quiz to continue.
Quiz is set to Allow Backward Movement.
Quiz is set to allow 100 attempts on the quiz.
Quiz is set to display Retake Button.
Each quiz question is set to allow 1 attempt.
Captivate 4 - AS 2.
After answering all the quiz questions, and failing, and clicking Retake Quiz button, some of the answers remain greyed out. It will not let you click Reset and will then automatically move on to the next question slide.
There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it... sometimes the correct answer remains greyed out, and sometimes an incorrect answer remains greyed out. Sometimes when I click Retake Quiz none of the answers are greyed out, but then if i keep failing the quiz, the answers begin to appear greyed out. I have double-checked that i've set the number of attempts on the quiz to 100.
I have also tried using the Back navigation button within a quiz, to go back and change my answer, but the answers remain greyed out, and pressing Reset makes no difference.
It seems the only way I've managed to get a 'clean' retake at the quiz, is to exit from the e-learning, then go back in to it. But this is not going to be an acceptable method, when my company want to give learners the option to retake the quiz only if they fail, and not redo the whole package to get to the quiz at the end.

How can I hide a button with javascript in Captivate 8?

I need to run some javascript in my project and at the same time I want to hide a button, so I can't use advanced actions.

It is very strange, most users who have focus on JS try to do everything with it, whereas lot of simple actions can easily be done with advanced/shared actions. I will only go to JS when it is not possible with advanced/shared actions.
You are lucky, I was just restarting to work on an advanced training for next week when your question showed up.

I have created an interaction to show 7 groups and 7 clickable objects. Once all are click the Next Button is show. How can you make that work if you want to embeded the SWF just created but show a button in a master Captivate?

In flash you can have a shell that has the navigation and some button in the shell are not activated until all clickable objects are clicked. I am not a flash programmer but it was related to using the path of shell and the sub-project.
Can anybody help me on that.
I would like to create Captivate interaction that you can just embedded in a Shell captivate project.
Do I need to set variables at both levels (Global variable.

Hello Lieve, That is the screen shot of my custom interactivity, when all labels are clicked the Continue button will be shown because there is a conditional validating if all Labels have now a value of 1. What I am trying to achieve is to create an interaction where where the continue button (an the back button would reside in another Captivate project. This way there is no reprograming required or use of share-actions. Everytime we use a similar advanced action or a shared action we have to make sure the object name in the advanced actions or conditional actions are not the same. I trying to make it a bit dump proof for somebody that does not know any thing about advanced action and just reuse the label interaction in may projects. (The only thing they would change would be the image and the content of the label.
Do you thing I going in the right direction. (As I said before I have custom javacript in Captivate 5.5) to unlock un button that was part of the LCMS ForceTen). I belive the word .this was part of the object path in the JavaScript. Can we hide and show a Captivate button.
I have embedded other Captivate animation in a Master Captivate but the objets were not talking to each other. (You can see a sample http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Erm4_qdybiA&feature=youtube_gdata). In that sample the continue is always there and can be click anytime. The 3 steps animation has been done as another project and embedded in my main captivate. I would like to implement a solution where a my 7 labels have to be clicked in the subproject before showing and enabling the Continue button.
I hope my explanation is clear enough.

Delete all instances of a button in a project - Captivate 4

Hi there.
It seems that with Captivate 2 (or maybe 3), you could copy a button and paste it on all the rest of the slides in your project. Then if you had to modify that button, you could select it from the Library (memory's fuzzy here, that may not be accurate), then delete it, and it would delete the button from every slide.
With Captivate 4, I don't see any buttons in the Library. It also appears that if I paste a button onto all of my slides, each button is renamed and lives as a separate instance, and it's not just replicas of the original button.
Is this the case?
Basically, I want to delete a button from my project that's been pasted on all of my slides. Without deleting it slide by slide. Can this be done in Captivate 4?
I am aware of persistent buttons available via the Widgets functionality, but that wasn't appropriate for my project in this case.
Thanks,
Tichelle

Here's a way to at least delete all Back buttons in a project at once:
1.    Select Preferences from Edit menu.
2.    In the Category pane on the left side of the Preferences window, select Quiz>Settings.
3.    Under the Settings part of the window, uncheck the box next to “Allow backward movement.”
4.    Click the OK button.
NOTES: • Depending on how many slides are in your project, it can take several seconds to complete the process. The Preferences window will disappear when it has completed removing all Back buttons.
                 • Also, if this doesn’t work for some reason (it didn’t remove the Back buttons from all my slides a couple of times), start by first selecting all slides (from Edit menu or Ctrl+A).

Changing the button fill color in Captivate 7?

I am pretty sure that when I used Captivate 6 and I created a button, there was an option in the Properties pane to allow me to change the fill color of the button. I am using Captivate 7 now, and I no longer see this option. Under the "General" tab, it allows me to change the button type, caption, make it transparent, or allows me to see button widgets. Did they remove the ability to simply change the fill color of a button?

I'm wondering if this is something that was maybe added in a service release. Either that or you may need to reset your preferences.
Mine has a section titled Fill & Stroke as shown below.
Cheers... Rick

Buttons appear as Question Marks in Photo Page

Hey all,
I've been having this problem where buttons (Start Slideshow, Email Me, and Made on a Mac) show up as Question Marks on one of my Photo pages (titled "New Photos)
Follow Link below:
http://web.mac.com/adventurestorys/iWeb/Site%201/New%20Photos.html
In the past I've been able to make a small change to the page and re-publish which corrects the problem. But this one is stubborn. Any advice?
Note that I have already tried the "Publish all to .Mac" and that didn't help. And I do Empty my Cache in Safari after Publishing. Also, the problem only occurs on this particular photo page, the others in the site are just fine. So I recreated the page from scratch and re-published, but that still didn't help. Not sure what to try next. Thanks for your help.

Cabo23:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. I see what you mean. The images for the buttons are not located by the page but they still work. Are these special image files you're using or the ones that come with the theme?
You might try creating a new photo page, select all of the photos from the old page and past into the placeholder on the new one. Do the same for the text, copy it from the old and past into the text box from the new. Then publish to a folder on the desktop and see if the buttons are correct. If so , delete the old page, rename the new one to the old name and publish.

Click boxes and buttons not working in Captivate 3 published projects

I really, really, hope that someone can help me...
we are migrating from Centra/Saba LMS to Connect Pro LMS and while taking our "old" SCORM projects and posting them to the Connect Pro server we have encountered an issue...and the reason it's very hard to trouble shoot is that it's not all of the projects....??
Once a project is pulished none of the buttons or click boxes are working - for instance we use a play button on the frist slide for students to enter the course - you click it nothing happens (except when you mouse over the button it does change color)...same with the click boxes - I can use the progress bar to move froward but anything I click just doesn't respond...
Has anyone encountered this? and I hope know something we can do?
THANKS SO MUCH,
Jen

Do your published projects work outside of your LMS?
Or is it just inside the new LMS that it isn't working?
Usually buttons and click boxes not working is because your slides are pausing before the button becomes active.
What version of Captivate and Flash are you using?

Audition button not active in Captivate

I have installed Captivate 6 and Adobe Audition CS6. When I attempt to edit audio from Captivate, I see a button for Audition, but is is inactive. How can I activate it to use it for 'round trip' in Audition?

Sorry but nope. It's unfortunately an eLearning Suite feature only.

Navigation buttons (slicing & hotspots)

I've created a graphic navigation menu composed of several buttons. I've been slicing each one separately and assigning its link to the slice. Would it be better to make just one slice of the whole bar and add hotspot links on top of that? Or is it that pretty much the same either way?
Still learning!
Thanks, Phyllis

Thanks. I'm actually pretty familiar with writing HTML and CSS. I've just had a few class projects that had to be done entirely in Fireworks (or Dreamweaver), so it led me to wonder which elements are easiest achieved in graphic programs. I used to hand-code most of the sites I worked on, and I spent too much time on that. For image rollovers, I think Dreamweaver might be better than Fireworks, but I really don't know.
I'm currently studying sprite navigation in a CSS class. It's really cool the way it works, but it's easy to spend too much time in the coding process. I'm trying to get more into efficiently using graphic programs as well as editing code.
Thanks, Phyllis
