I learned how to use engage to add a drop-down periodic table to my presentations, but I specifically need the drop-down periodic table during the quizmaker quizzes. Is there a way to add a tab for that? It seems that once you're in a quiz, you can't navigate elsewhere in the presentation, so how do my students access a periodic table during the quiz?
I looked through that site and it spoke about adding images, not tables. I need a periodic table to take up the full screen when it's clicked on so that students can read the data in any single cell. Is there a way to add a thumbnail sized periodic table that, when it's clicked on, can bring up the full table?
Assuming your table was created in Excel, you'll need to save it as an image and then bring it into Quizmaker. To save your table as an image, see the link below:
I added the periodic table image to the quizmaker slide and it works really well in that I can click on the thumbnail and get a full size periodic table. The table, however, is fuzzy, making the atomic masses hard to read. I used what I thought was a large enough image size too.
Please be sure to include a description of your issue, your version of PowerPoint, version of Windows and version of Presenter '09 which you can find in Help and Support -> About Articulate Presenter. Please also include the URL for this thread so we can follow up with you in the forums.

You may want to add the table as an image to the questions that would require someone look at a table:

Hi Melanie,

After that, you can follow the instructions in the link provided by Justin to bring it into Quizmaker.
