Switching Between Question List View and Slide View

Question List View gives you a bird's-eye view of your entire quiz. It's useful for organizing slides into question groups and managing navigation. On the other hand, Slide View is where you build individual slides.

Here are three ways to switch between Question List View and Slide View:

• Click the view buttons in the lower right corner of the screen (beside the zoom slider).
• Go to the View tab on the ribbon, and click Question List View or Slide View.
• Click the tabs just below the ribbon. The Questions tab is always visible. Additional tabs will open in Slide View as you build individual slides.

Tip: Since Quizmaker always opens in Question List View, an easy way to quickly jump into Slide View is to double-click the slide you want to edit.

Working with the Question Editor

We've streamlined the question editor, so creating quizzes is even easier. When working with question slides, you can switch between Form View and Slide View without opening any additional windows or interrupting your workflow. Just click the Form View and Slide View buttons in the Question panel to toggle back and forth.

Undocking and Redocking Panels

Have you ever wanted to move some of Quizmaker's panels to another monitor so you have more room to work? Now you can. Click the title of a panel and drag it to a new location, or double-click the title to pop the panel out.

To redock a panel, click the Redock button in the panel's upper right corner.

To redock all panels at the same time, go to the View tab on the Quizmaker ribbon and click Redock All Windows.

Changing the Zoom Level in Slide View

Get a big-picture view of a slide or zoom in for more precise editing. Here are several ways to adjust the zoom level for a slide:

Ctrl+Mouse Wheel	This is probably the easiest and quickest way to zoom in and out. Hold down the Ctrl key and scroll your mouse wheel at the same time. Scroll forward to zoom in or backward to zoom out.
Zoom Slider	In the lower-right corner of your screen, you'll see a zoom slider. Drag it to the right to zoom in or to the left to zoom out.
Zoom Percentage	Next to the zoom slider in the lower right corner of your screen, you'll see a zoom percentage. Click the percentage to bring up the zoom window where you can change the zoom to whatever you like. You can also access this window by going to the View tab and clicking Zoom.
Fit to Window	To the right of the zoom slider, you'll see a small rectangular button with arrows. Click this button to make everything fit in the viewable area of your Quizmaker workspace. Another option is to go to the View tab and click Fit to Window.

Using Keyboard Shortcuts

Quizmaker has dozens of keyboard shortcuts to help you work faster. See the complete list here.

Setting General Options

Use Quizmaker's general application options to take advantage of auto-recovery features, set your spelling/autocorrect preferences, configure proxy settings, and even change the interface language. Access these options by going to the File tab on the ribbon and choosing Quizmaker Options.

Changing the Interface Language

You can localize the Quizmaker interface in English, French, German, or Spanish.

The language setting is now located in the Articulate 360 app that runs in your computer’s system tray (beside the clock). See this user guide for details.
