Hi - I have set Presenter to show Elapsed Time & Total Time in the Player when published. I noticed that elapsed time stops when play.ng back a quiz (maybe that's 'cause they are so much fun ;)). Looking at the player within Quizmaker - ther does not seem to be an option to show Elapsed Time & Total Time.
Is there a way to show Elapsed & Total time running in a quiz?
Hi - thanks for replying. I took a look at the link and applied it to my course. Tried to change elapsed time in Presenter and in Quizmaker. Neither made the overall elapsed time of the course on the top left of the player tick on. I have audio in the quizzes but still nothing. The only thing I could get it to do was put a separate elapsed timer on the top right of the player just for the quiz.
Hi, Gordon -- Thanks for checking out the article provided, and sorry that is not what you had in mind. Unfortunately, I am not aware of another method to suggest for what you have described, but perhaps others in the community have attempted something similar and would be able to offer some additional suggestions.
I did want to stop back in here, Gordon, to double check that I am clear on what you are hoping to see as far as a timer. Do you want a timer in only the quiz, or an elapsed/total time for the course as a whole? Unfortunately, you cannot have both simultaneously, but if you are finding that your timer isn't functioning properly when using the built-in Presenter timer as a part of the player, we may need to take a look at your file. If you can use the steps here to create an Articulate package, please feel free to upload it here for additional review.
Hi, Gordon -- Thanks for your patience and I can confirm that I was not able to have the quiz's elapsed time count as part of the overall course time in Presenter. There is a great explanation provided previously by one of our Senior Support Engineers over here if you'd like to take a look.

Hi, Gordon - Thanks so much for reaching out here! May I ask if you have had an opportunity to review the information here for Presenter '13: Setting the Quiz Timer Format?

Any other ideas?

Hi - I am looking for timer for course as a whole including the quiz duration. Think you are saying that is not possible - right?
