The training I am working on has a transparent player with no Next or Previous buttons. Everything is built within the slide through inserting buttons and hotspots. I am using a question bank for the quiz questions and can not quite figure out to remove the player's Submit button for each question. I would like manually insert the submit buttons into each slide. Any insight would be great.
Hey Brian, when you are in story view you should be able to look over on the right of your screen at the slide properties (when you have a quiz slide selected). There you should see the "Slide navigation controls." Just un-check the Submit check box. Does that work?
I just figured it out! Because it is a quiz bank I had to open the quiz bank and select each individual question to deselect the submit function. It would not give me the option if I simply selected the bank in Story View.
That's interesting Gerry, there must be two ways to do it. Thanks for the reply! I got it this way if anyone was wondering... I had to select each question though.
I went to the Story View, select all slides, and then clicked the Submit check box. If the box is blue highlighted it means you currently have a mix of Submit and non-Submit slides so click till the box is not blue and is not checked.
I don't believe the select all function works on question banks. I want to get rid of the PREV button on all my slides, but even when I select all in the view shown, then click off the checkmark for Prev in the Slide Navigation Controls, it turns it off only for the first slide. So I'm doing them one by one by one ...
If anyone knows how or if there is a way to really do this global change for question banks, I'd love to hear it. Thanks!
You are correct Kendra! The slides within a question bank must be done one at a time. You can see some similar documentation here where you can select a slide, change settings, and repeat.

I think you have to go to each question slide and turn off the submit button just like you did with the next and prev buttons.
Then you can create whatever button you want and add a submit interaction trigger to the button.
Nancy,
I am still having a little difficulty locating where to turn the submit button off at. I am using a quiz bank. Am I simply missing an easy step?

I am not seeing that option Graham. I think it is because I am using a quiz bank rather than individual quiz slides.
Open up your quiz bank questions into edit mode and then set the slide properties there.
I can't rememebr if you have to do this for each question or just once. Been a while since I did that for some courses.

Thanks for the update. That's one of the beauties of Storyline--often more than one way to do something.
Your way is probably quicker, which is usually better.
I have quiz pools of over 500 questions, sometimes more! is it possible to do this globally or will i need to change each in every question?
Thanks,
Tom

You can do the same for the Question Banks.
