Quizmaker '13 Feedback Text

Hi Yasmin,

The feedback text boxes within Quizmaker 13 have a default setting to "shrink text on overflow" which is why your text that is longer is being shrunk. 

Yes. I noticed that, but even if I take it off the default setting the text doesn't fit in the shape. In the previous version the shape enlarged to fit the text and keep the size consistent. Is that not an option anymore?

Hi Yasmin,

Within Quizmaker 13 the box size won't change, but you can add in a scrolling panel as described here. 

Hi,

I followed the instructions, but the scroll bar is still not appearing in the quiz. is there a setting or step I'm missing to have it appear in the feedback slide? 

Thanks,

Hi Yasmin,

You'll need to create the scrolling panel, it won't appear automatically. There are directions here on how to add in the scrolling panel. 

Here is the screenshot of what it looks like when I preview. No scroll bar appears. I've also attached a screenshot of the scroll bar I inserted. Thanks,

I do not like the scroll bar option for my Quizmaker responses that are too large.  Instead, I tried to duplicate the 'answer box' image and then I insert it as a picture, SEND TO BACK, then resize as needed (my answer text and the box itself) and move the CONTINUE button to the correct location. I find it fast to do and I like the look better.  I'll attach my image file for you.  By the way, it is for the default course colors...

Hi Rachel,

Thanks for sharing that - great idea! :) 

If you could share the .QUIZ file where you created this, I'm sure others would appreciate it as well.

Thanks again and have a great day,

Christine

Does this mean the feedback boxes will no longer auto-scroll if the feedback is longer?

I've had a look at how adding a scroll bar works, but if there is only short feedback the scroll bar still appears?

Yasmin, I just got '13 recently and noticed this as well when in some of my updated older courses the text had shrunk to an unreadable size..  You've probably already figured this out since your post is over a year old, but if you go to the View tab and select Feedback Master, you can resize the feedback box, move the button and set your text properties. 

Hi Scott,

Thanks for sharing here - and this is also further documented here.
