Recognizing Quiz vs Review Quiz?

May 17, 2021

Is there a way to tell if the user is in the quiz vs. reviewing the quiz (i.e. a variable state).  Assuming there is not, but just checking.  

For example, it would be nice to be able to know when they are in each so one could customize what shows up in each instance.  Thank you.

Hi, Jeff.

Can you give some more details of what you're trying to achieve? While there's no built-in variable that you can use to check if the user is in Review, you can use the layer with variables and triggers in a way that might work for you.

For example, I can add a textbox to the question slide, referencing a text variable called review, with a default value of "No":

On the Review layer, I can add a trigger to set the value to "Yes" when the timeline starts on the layer

Here's what happens in preview:
