Control Close button in Lightbox slide

Sep 10, 2014

Hello Community,

I was wondering if it was possible to temporarily disable the close button (red X at top right of the screen) UNTIL the slides reaches the end of the timeline. This way, we force the user to wait until all the content has been displayed.

Is it possible?

Thank you!!

Hi Remeka,

I'm not sure what you mean that you can't record them in your results slide? If you're lightboxing a slide it should still appear as a regular slide in your course story view and be accessible as a part of the results slide if you're using a standard question slide. If you've set up something more custom or continue to experience difficulty with the built in set up we're happy to take a look - are you able to share the .story file here for staff and the community to take a look at? You can upload it using the "Add Attachment" button at the bottom of the reply window.

Sorry,
I can't send the file now because I'm not at my computer. Basically we are showing videos in the training. At certain points, we pause the video to ask a quiz question, which must be recorded on the results slide for that module.

However, my question is when creating the quiz questions on layers, I can't record the response on the results slide. Is there a way to do that?

You're correct about the lightbox. My issue there was that the user can exit the lightbox without answering the question. Unless you have a way that I can prevent this?

Thanks,

Hi Remeka,

Thanks for clarifying - I wasn't sure which part of this thread you were using/referring to. Since the built in quiz questions have to be on the base layer, using a custom set up on a slide layer you won't be able to calculate that as a part of the results. Similarly if you're using the built in lightbox there is not a way to prevent the user from exiting the lightbox. The video shared above includes a more custom lightbox set up. 

I think from what your describing this thread is a bit different than your set up, so sharing the .story file would help you in getting additional advice from the community. Here is another example of a video quiz set up that you may want to look at.
