Two click boxes counted as one interaction

When I have a screen with two click boxes that are ticked to include in quiz, I only want one or the other clicked, not both. It seems that Captivate wants you to click both in order to for it to recognise that all questions have been answered. How do I get around this?

If this is one of those situations where the user needs to choose one of two correct answers, and clicking either click box would be considered a correct answer, then one way to deal with this is to use the Infosemantics Interactive Master Widget:
http://www.infosemantics.com.au/adobe-captivate-widgets/interactive-master
You turn off reporting for both of the click boxes and get them set up as slaves of the Interactive Master Widget, which then reports a single score to the quiz regardless of which click box is clicked.
Trial version available here if you want to try it out:

Just one caveat:  This is an SWF widget so it is not compatible with HTML5 output.

  • Two click boxes to do separate things

    Hi all,
    In my simulation I need to have a left click and a right click box in the same place as there is two ways to do what I am trying to simulating (so the learner can either use the left or right click option). Is there any possible way for this to work?
    Thanks very much for any suggestion,
    Matt

    For right click to work at all in Captivate you need to have accessibility turned off in Preferences, you need to have at least one click Baxter as well ( in addition to the Event Handler widget ) somewhere in the project set to use right click, you need to be using the HTML and JS files to launch it, and finally, if you're not testing on a web server then you need to set up your publish folder location as a trusted location in Flash Global Security.
    THEN right click will work.

  • Can you have two slides shows on the one interactive page?

    I'm just new at learning interactive pdfs in indesign so sorry if this is common knowledge. I know how to create a slide show on a page, but can you have two slide shows on the one page or more for that matter? (Ideally I need 3.) Each slide show has its own set of images and buttons.

    But I'm happy to create them a different way if needed be.

  • Click-box behavior and calling javascript

    Greetings,
    While working on a project I have noticed odd behavior
    concerning click-box behavior where there are more than one
    click-box on a slide.
    Here is the situation:
    I have a Captivate (2) lesson project. In several slides I
    have an area on the slide where the user can access material
    outside the lesson. They do this via clicking a click-box. The
    click-box is set to fire a javascript that opens the additional
    content (an outside url) in window that "floats" above the
    currently viewed slide.
    The javascript is a standard open browser window script with
    passed parameters.
    Here is the script being called (it is located in
    standard.js):
    function openBrWindow(theURL,winName,features)
    window.open(theURL,winName,features);
    This script is being called in Captivate in:
    Insert -> Click-box -> If the user clicks inside the
    box, On Success -> Execute Javascript
    An example of a typical call:
    Click box -> JavaScript: -> In the window/field is:
    javascript:openBrWindow('
    http://www.mydomain.com/about/org-pol/f-07/f-07-016.html','mypolicy','width=800,height=600 ,scrollbars=yes');
    This works fine. A window with this URL opens up over the
    stopped slide.
    The odd behavior comes in where I have more than one of these
    click-boxes on a slide. If the user clicks a second click box, the
    correct (different) URL opens up in a window OK, but the slide (now
    behind the new, open window) advances. It shouldn't advance to the
    next slide. It should stay put until a user clicks a particular
    button to advance.
    Has anyone seen this type of behavior before? Is this a bug
    in Captivate 2? Or a bad javascript call? Any thoughts?
    Thank you for your input.
    TPK

    Hi TPK
    When you edit the properties of the Click Box, note that
    there are two buttons to the right of the "JavaScript" field. One
    is an ellipsis ( ... ) and you probably clicked that one to enter
    the script. The other is a down arrow. You need to click the down
    arrow and DE-select the option labeled "Continue playing project".
    You will need to do this for each Click Box the user may interact
    with where you don't want the slide to continue if the user clicks.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Single click in a double click box

    Captivate 3.
    I have two click boxes; one set for a single click and the
    other for a double click. Both have failure captions. When I single
    click in the box set for a double click, nothing happens. It
    appears to be ignored. I would like the failure caption for the
    double click box to display if the user clicks only once inside the
    box. Is this possible?

    Hi jimclennon and welcome to our community
    I doubt you will be able to accomplish this easily. Failure
    captions normally appear when you define a click box area and click
    outside the area. As you are clicking
    inside a click box area, but only clicking once, Captivate
    probably isn't sensing a wrong action is occurring.
    This is something you may wish to submit as a feature request
    for a future version. To do that,

  • Make all click boxes required before proceeding to next slide

    I have created a screen with three click boxes and a next button. The learner will need to click all three click boxes before they can click next to move to the next slide. If they do not click all three boxes they will need to get a message saying they need to view all content before proceeding. Does anyone know how to program the next button to require the three click boxes to be clicked before proceeding?
    Thanks in advance,
    ~A

    Question has been treated multiple times in this forum. You don't need to program the Next button, but the click boxes. I suppose they do not have to be clicked in sequence? In that case:
    create three user variables, one for each click box: v_one, v_two, v_three and give them a default value of 0
    hide the next button (in the Properties panel - since I don't know the version, will not go in details)
    for each click box create a conditional advanced action with two decisions:
    First decision is a mimicked standard action 'Always'
        IF 1 is equal to 1
           Assign v_one with 1    (change variable in the actions for the other two click boxes to v_two, v_three)
    Second decision checks the value of the three variables
        IF v_one is equal to 1  AND
            v_two is equal to 1  AND
                            v_three is equal to 1
                        Show Bt_Next
    Be sure to have the pausing point of the Next button later than the pausing point of the click boxes. That will mean that you have to shorten the timeline of the click boxes, and check the timing properties of the button

  • Multiple Click Box Quiz Answers on the Same Slide

    Hello. I am using Captivate 5.5
    I have a quiz slide with two click boxes that are both correct answers.  When a learner clicks either of them, I want them to advance to the next slide and score as "Correct".
    The problem is since they only click one of the boxes, they never receive enough points to pass the quiz (since each box has earns credit towards the final score).
    Does anyone have a solution or work around for this?
    Thanks.

    I have already watched the videos, but we still end up 1 answer short.  Essentially no correct scores are being reported from that slide that contains the Master Widget.
    Here is the exact set up we have:
    Two click boxes that are correct answers.  Neither are set to report to quiz.  If either box is clicked the slide advances (and theoretically a correct score of 1 should be added).  If they click anywhere else on the slide it should advance the slide without adding the point to the total score.
    The Master Widget is set up the following way.
    Slave Objects: Both of our correct click boxes are listed as slaves
    Scoring: Under "Slave Scoring" we have both click boxes set to "1" on Success and "0" on Failure
    Success/Failure: We have chosen "Success" and "Based on Slave Success/Failure"  - "Report Success if any 1 slaves report Success"
    Evaluate: We selected "Evaluate each time a slave evaluates"
    Misc: We left all of these in their default position.

  • Click boxes that do not behave-edit or trah them?

    I am getting better at doing things and note that I am creating a simulation that is categorized as "custom."
    This is fine as it gives me what I want but now with more experince I am seeing two items...
    1-Run from slide "n" will generate the slides but the "fade in" effect halts at 80% of total on most (but not all) occasions. Usually with a text entry box to simulate user typing input. What I discovered is the text box is active despite the fact that the tranparency is not totally done. Visual but not a bother.
    Is this something to be documented to QA?
    2-Click boxes are generated along the way and that is good. On review I run into situations where the click boxes "just don't work." Most of the time it is a text entry box where "type user name" then "click on the search button" to proceed. The target area is present but the button just will not advance the slide.
    The solution is to ditch the auto-created click box and put one in manually.
    Not a great problem but seems overkill; am I missing something about editing auto created click boxes to get them to work?

  • How to avoid double-click to click-box

    Hello,
    until now I did not find a solution for this problem:
    I have created a training course for a specific application, and in this coure are some click boxes on which the user should click. On many click boxes should the user click only once but if he double-click the click box, in real application nothing happens. There is only one way to succes the action - one click. But in captivate when the user double-click the click box instead of one click it evaluate as success action (the click box is set only to one click, double-click checkbox is not checked).
    So my question is, is there any way how to avoid double-click in cases where the user should click only once? Or in case he double-click the click box to show failure caption?
    Many thanks.
    Lukas

    Hi all
    Interesting thread. Unfortunately, what would be needed here is some sort of a widget that would run some internal timer. Sure, you can try multiple Click Boxes and configure one with a Single Click and one with a Double Click. But the problem with that (as I see it) is regardless of what you might try, the Single Click will win out every time. Thus you would need a widget of some sort that would "listen" for a Double Click and respond appropriately.
    Tough call... Rick

  • Apply multiple effects to multiple objects with single click box

    I would like to click on a click box and have one object appear and another object disappear. I guess what I'd like to do is apply effects to multiple objects with a single click box. Is that possible?
    Thank you.

    Welcome to our community
    Sure it can be done but you won't use effects to do it.
    When you insert an object in Captivate, you have an option to enable or disable Visibility. You also have an option to name the object. So you would give the object a meaningful name and clear the Visibility option to "hide" it until needed.
    Then you would create an Advanced Action that would hide some objects and show others.
    After that, you would assign the Advanced Action to a Click Box or a Button or some other event.

  • Two clicks to close tab in Firefox 28.0

    just upgraded to Firefox 28.0. now it takes two clicks, rather than just one, to close a tab.
    it's not a new feature, it's a bug.

    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    ''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''

    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.

  • When I go back to edit the form why are my individual text boxes merging into one large text box?

    I am currently trying to create a form fillable pdf and have never had problems until yesterday.
    My individual text boxes are somehow conjoining into one large text box after I save my edits and go back to the form to make additional edits.  This has never happened before and it is messing up the entire format of the form.  Any guidance would be grealy appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Did you find a solution to your problem?  I am experiencing the same thing.  Only, the boxes will change.  One time when I go in a single word on a line will be in the same box as a word above it.  I created these text boxes in the pdf and did not import from another file.  The next time I go into the file, the word will be back in its original box and other words will be combined in boxes. The last time I went in two entire lines that were two separate boxes are not one box.  The boxes seem to merge completely randomly though the text they are enclosing are next to each other either side by side, or more frequently, above/below.  This is quite a nuisance as I am still creating my form and when I want to move words or lines, I have to copy the text box and then delete the words I do not want in each box just so I can manipulate the content into the positions I want them.

  • How can I get a click box to interact with a text entry box on the same page?

    I'm creating a tutorial on using a specific system and trying to recreate what the end user would actual do in the system.  On one slide, the end user must enter text into a field, then press a button (click box) to advance to the next slide.  I want to be able to have the click box validate if the text entry is correct before advancing to the next slide.  Is there a way to get the click box to validate the text entry?  Not sure how to get the two objects to "talk" to each other rather than function independently.
    Literally, I want the end user to enter the data in the text entry box, then click on the Get button.  I need the Get button (click box) to both validate that the data entered in the text entry box is correct and, if it is, advance to the next slide.  If the data is incorrect, I need the Get button (click box) to show the failure caption and have the end user re-enter the data correctly.
    How do I get the objects to work together?

    Hi there
    You need to delete the Click Box. Yes, you heard me. Delete the puppy.
    I  know it sounds weird. But bear with me. After you delete it, double-click the Text Entry Box. Then click the Options tab. See that option called Show Button? Click it and click OK to dismiss the TEB properties.
    Now you have the button you want. If you don't want a button, double-click it and set it as transparent. Remove the text. Position as desired where the Click Box was before.

  • **urgent*** -two  combo boxes  -one  database table - ***urgent**

    1. i have one html page - in that two combo boxes are there
    2. first one called--> Bank Name and second one called-->Main Branch
    3. i have a database table like BANK_MASTER(MAIN_BRANCH,BANK_NAME)
    i am giving here some data for the above table:
    (sbi-kurnool, sbi),(sbi-cadapah,sbi),(sbi-chittor,sbi),(ab-rangareddy,ab),(ab-varangal,ab) ..like that every bank has its own main branch in different location.
    MY PROBLEM:
    In HTML page, in the first combo box ie., Bank Name will display all the bank name using the table BANK_MASTER ie.,sbi,ab,cb,sbh ...... (its ok - i too get )
    main Problem: Whenever i select a particular bank name in the first combo box, the second combo box ie.,Main Branch has to display the main branches using the table Bank_Master depending on the Selected bank name from the Bank Name Combo box ( ie., if we select the sbi, it has to display all main branches of sbi's only, but not other bank's main branches)

  • I got problem on installing iTunes. When I clicked iTunes out, two windows popped out. One said the procedure entry point CFAttributed String Create Mutable could not be located in the dynamic link library Core Foundation.dll.

    I got problem on installing iTunes. When I clicked iTunes out, two windows popped out. One said the procedure entry point CFAttributed String Create Mutable could not be located in the dynamic link library Core Foundation.dll. and one just said *Itunes was not installed correctly.  Please re install I Tunes Error 7 (windows error 127) . I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it. But either way cant work. I really need some of your help! PLS HELP ME!

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The error shares a similar pattern to that in the third box, so a similar approach should work. Look for CoreFoundation.dll in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support, delete it, then repair Apple Application Support.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
