Quiz – Next Button

Hello, everyone,

I have a question about the quiz in Captivate. I created a quiz with several slides. If successful, a ‘Next’ button will be displayed. However, the user must first click on the slide before the ‘Next’ button can be clicked. Even if I set ‘On success: Go to the next slide’, the user must first to click into the slide for it to continue. Can that be changed? Is not so user-friendly.

Greetings from Germany Michael

This does seem slightly annoying. The suggestion of putting an image of the next button on the slide seems good, but it doesn’t seem like you should have to do that at all? Thanks for the suggestion!

Personally, I don’t change much on the quiz slides – some text here and there, but it is good to have a process for that and customization is a great thing, so maybe I should be doing more of this.

thanks

I have a lot of blogs about tweaking Quiz slides, mostly because of requests on the forums. Quizzing is the number one topic on my blog, when checking the analytics. Second topic is the Timeline.

Guten morgen.

Try to understand the Submit process in the default Quiz slides. I have a blog explaining this in detail:

Captivate’s Quizzes (2): Submit Process – eLearning (adobe.com)

Two steps: first click the Submit button (slide keeps paused), second after reading the message you click on the slide or press Y to continue. At that moment the playhead is released and the actions specified under Success/Last Attempt are done. You may find this not user friendly, but to me it is rather logical because I prefer a different setup from content slides. The Next button has a totally different meaning on those slides.

Since you can click anywhere on the quiz slide, why not just put an image of the next button somewhere? Clicking that image will be the same as clicking anywhere on the slide. If you want to get rid of the two-step proces, I will post another comment with another link (to avoid moderation waiting time you can only include one link/comment).
