Question numbering in menu

Jul 05, 2019

Hi everyone! I've built a test in SL3, created a question bank of 50 q's and inserted a random question draw of 20 into my course. I'm trying to use the menu so that Question 1, Question 2, etc is shown. Can you help me?

Hi there, George. This will be tough to accomplish in the player menu, but you can easily add a text reference on your question bank quiz slides that include a question number. Here's what you'll need:

  • A number variable, e.g. "questionnumber," with a default value of 0.
  • A trigger on each quiz slide to adjust the variable by adding 1.
  • A text box with a reference to the variable on each slide.
  • A trigger on your retry and review quiz buttons to reset the variable to 0 so that if learners review or retake the quiz, the numbers will begin again.

This setup works under the assumption that learners won't use the previous button to go back to view questions. Here's a sample in action, and I've attached the .story below. I hope that helps!
