JS Captivate 2017 Print slide and track user input

$
0
0

I'm trying to print a slide in landscape. It seems the JS and CSS code that i'm using, will not do this in Win 7/IE on test. Is there a consistant method to make the slide and it's contents print via a print button ?

 

My next issues is tracking the users "click" attempts. for example.Say I have 6 slides and 1-5 are the slides I want to track the "failed/wrong" click attempts. I want to track the user click attempts, track the "failed click" attempts and set it with a user maximum of failed clicks at 2 attempts,  before it "Fails". Then on slide 6, based off the user 'click" attempts, show/hide an "image" (too many click attempts will show the image, one click attempt won't). And get it to work consistantly. If anyone has any suggestions, that would be great. 


Change the text in the popup box?

What's the best / easiest way to change the text in a popup box? I've got a click box interaction to execute Javascript with an alert box, but the title of it is "Adobe Captivate". I know that a regular Javascript alert box title cannot be changed, but I'm wondering if, because it's styled, there is a strain I can tweak. I appreciate any help!

Assign partial points to single answer, multiple choice?

$
0
0

I'm setting up a quiz where each question has a bad, good, and best answer. I'd like to give partial points for the good answer, but it looks like that is only possible if you do the multiple answer option. Is there anyway I can assign points with advanced actions? I thought I could just increment the variable, but you can't when you select increment in the advanced actions builder.

 

Maybe create an independent variable and then add the two on the final slide for the final score? Looking for suggestions.

 

To be clear, the wrong answer gains 0 points and the correct answer will gain 20 points - that is already adjusted on my quiz slide. I'm wanting to assign 10 points to the 'good' answer.

Need javascript to send completion on SCORM lesson_status

I need help with Captivate 7.0.1.237 - on Windows 7

 

I don't want to use slides viewed OR quiz score to send a completion to the LMS

 

I have researched javascript - on the web - and the best I can come up with is shown below

 

var CaptivateObj = document.Captivate;

g_objAPI.LMSSetValue('cmi.core.lesson_status', 'completed');

g_objAPI.LMSCommit('');

g_objAPI.LMSFinish('');

 

I have tried setting the script to Top, parent, current, new - and have tested a TEST Captivate SCORM package on SCORM Cloud

 

I have created a simple 5 slide package - with the javascript executing ON EXIT for slide 2 - on slide 3 I have an exit button

 

IT doesn't work - that is, it doesn't send a completion

 

I can send the sample Captivate file with the embedded javascript if that would help

Best way to publish captivate videos on SharePoint

$

Hello All,

 

I am a fairly new captivate user, and I finally am ready to publish my first video.  There seems to be a lot of debate on the best way to publish, and I'm trying to find the method that is easiest for the end user to view.  I tried doing swf, but w/o having captivate installed they were not able to view.  They are being posted on our companies SharePoint page.  I published as a video, but then end users have to download.  Trying to find a way to publish where the end user would not have to download.   Any incite would be greatly appreciated. 

 

Best,

 

Maro

Include in Quiz functionality

$

0

I have created 18 demo, training assessment modules to train people on how to make a specific product for our company.  A few of the modules are getting a little large (> 100 slides).  I have combined all three recordings into one module  so the user can see what to do, practice what to do and then be tested.  I was curious if it would be possible to utilize the training recording that Captivate made as the quiz?  Here is what I am thinking and I don't know if it is possible at all.

 

Since the training module has the click boxes already included in the module, would it be possible to add a variable that would allow me to turn on the "Include in Quiz" reporting function if the user was redirected back to the training module at the end of the first pass through?  I have CpExtra so turning on and turning off the captioning is not a problem but I do not know if the "Include in Quiz" functionality is based on a unknown system variable or if it is a more complex function that is run in the background?

 

Being able to set this up would eliminate 1/3 of the slides and would be an interesting experiment if possible.

 

Just an idea, probably not possible but just curious.

 

Thanks,

Activate/Deactivate Next Button based on Previously Viewed

We have custom previous and next buttons in our module. Our client want to deactivate the next button until the end user finishes the slide and then have it active once they've viewed it. Plus, have their LMS remember each users location in order to continue at a later time. Has anyone figured out a solution? If so, could you please share?


SCORM Completion and Quiz Prefs

$

I have a pretty straightforward need to send a custom score to the LMS in my own variable.

I can do this but it is overwritten by Captivate's built-in function. I know there are assorted hacks of the scormdriver code, etc., but this shouldn't be that difficult.

 

Here's one issue I don't understand:

I have two MC quiz questions. I have them marked to not report score. I assigned 50 points to each question.

In quiz prefs, I have completion based upon 100% slides viewed.

Quiz Pass or Fail is set up with a passing score. To me, this should be irrelevant.

 

When exiting the course, it is marked complete based upon the quiz score OR all slides viewed, despite my having turned off question score reporting.

This I do not understand. To my way of thinking, if reporting is turned off at the question level, score should not be sent to LMS, and if all slides are not viewed, status should be incomplete.

 

I want to suppress reporting of system quiz score variable. I'm working on custom made interactions but that sorta defeats the purpose of the quiz management functions.

 

I'm sure I'm missing some detail of the Black Art of quizzes in Captivate. I've been on a long hiatus from Captivate and I was hoping by now this stuff would be a little easier to get a handle on.

Disable buttons while audio is playing for another button

Hi Everyone,

 

I've created an interaction where participants can click 6 different buttons, each button allows a different object to appear and audio will play. Is there a way to disable the 5 other buttons while the audio for the clicked button is play and then enable them again when the audio is over and the object disappears again?

Advanced Actions Help

Created a custom single choice quiz so that correct and incorrect feedback would pop up on individual slides.

 

This was suggested as a work around for captivate's quiz accessibility issue (the feedback is not read when a screen reader is on)

 

The set up I'm going for is depending on the correct or incorrect choice, the corresponding slide shows. I also wanted the user selected choice to be visible behind the feedback graphic. I've attempted this several times and the user's choice does not show when entering the correct or incorrect slide.-. I was hoping to make these shared actions.

 

What's the best way to do this?

 

Thanks!

Preloader Percentage Guideline

What is the "rule of thumb" for setting the preloader percentage? Is it based on file size...I don't want my viewers to have to wait too long? My project does not have any video, and is made up of ten TOC segments, none of which exceeds 10MB.  I'd appreciate much any advice on this!

I have a custom toggle using cpCmndCC that has alt text on it. The button is announced. But the 508 folks are saying I also need to announce whether the captions are on or off. Does anyone know how to do this, or even if it's possible?

Hi everyone,

 

New to captivate and struggling a bit with what I am sure is a simple issue.

 

How do I remove the background of a learning interaction?

 

I have a slide background I want to see and a learning interaction over the top.  How do I make the cyan colour transparent?

 

 

Thanks

I'm using Captivate 2019 to make an interactive video product.

In order to make it playable on Android Apps (for example, Wechat,a famous IM application in China),I should modify the HTML video tag like this,which provided by Tencent Browser Service(腾讯浏览服务-H5同层播放器接入规范 ).

  <videoid="video"class="video"controls="controls"playsinlinex5-video-player-type="h5">

Can anyone provide a solution?

Thank you!

Upscaling Issues with HTML5 Output

$

So I've been working with Captivate for about a year now... just got a new laptop with a 1080p screen, and all of a sudden problems were constant with my scalable HTML5 output (flashing between slides, some objects disappearing completely, etc.). The solution, though, is as simple as resizing the window down to what I assume is similar to (and smaller than) the project resolution I'm working with.

 

I'm not super happy about it, but I don't think it will present an issue for more than a small percentage of my users... but I'm wondering what my options are. FYI - the problem appears in Google Chrome, but not in Internet Explorer, which leads me to believe it may be even be a temporary problem, if future browser updates improve Chrome's scaling.

 

I saw a post from 2014 asking if HTML5 output could be set to scale down, but not to scale upwards, which I think would be a robust solution, but at the time, the consensus seems to have been that it wasn't feasible: Is it possible to only allow downward HTML / flash scaling of a project?

 

Let me know if anyone else has run across this issue and, if so, what the possible solutions are in 2017 beyond telling users with HD screens to scale down their windows.

 

Also... first post here. Thanks for all the information you've all contributed! This forum has been a super helpful resource!!!

edit Knowledge Check Answers...

I'm an instructional designer working on a former colleague's course build in Adobe Captivate 9 Version 9.0.2.437.
She has added knowledge checks throughout her course but never provided the answers to the knowledge checks
in her storyboard. These are knowledge checks (not quiz questions).

 

I've combed the forums and FAQs (even YouTube) for an answer to this question and have come up empty:

 

 

Is there any way at all, to view (and/or edit) the answers to the knowledge check questions in
Adobe Captivate 9? I don't want to change the properties of the questions, I just want to view correct answers.

 

Thank you,
