St Patrick Island

Playing with Adobe Captivate. This is a quick test to see if the platform is conducive to our curriculum. It took me about 20 minutes to put this together, but I had to figure how to add the images and try some really basic tools.

Fill in the blank question

I’m creating a fill in the blank question and it won’t let me start a second row for the question.  Is there a way to start the second row or add a second fill in the blank question on one slide?
