Need help on an activity design

yep. You can create a learner has completed state for each scenario, perhaps with a tick on it so the learner knows it has been done, then create a completed variable. It's a true false variable and the default value is false. You need a variable for each scenario.

You can then put a trigger on the scenario to toggle the variable to the completed state when the user clicks on whatever . . . maybe the next scenario.

You can use this process to show when a learner has completed each section of a tab interaction too. 

Hi Donna

here is a simple sample I did for someone last night - might give you some ideas.

Wow, thank you both for the feedback, I really appreciate it.  I am the only elearning developer on my team, with no one to talk out the logistics of these kinds of problems with.  Thanks again.

Hi Wendy

Can you please send me the file which you were talking about to my email address?  Kay.patel@georgiou.com.au

I have attached the story which I am working using Walt's .stroyfile and this is like the 5th time I have done it and I can not get it to work.

The last slide is the confusing one, can you please have a look for me and let me know where I am going wrong?

Thanks

K

Hi Kay

I've just sent my sample to your email.  I'm looking at your file now - is the issue that you don't want the Quiz button to be displayed until all topics have been visited?

Hi Kay

here is your updated file.

Issue 1 - the variable you had created were 'text' instead of 'true/false'.

Issue 2 - the Quiz button was not set to initial state of 'hidden' in the states tab.

Hope this is what you wanted

Wendy I don't know how to thank you!

I went back to the old file and I did type it in as I didn't have the option for the true/False

When I look at your file I can see the drop down. So I see why it is not working.

Glad to help Kay - shout out if you need more help and good luck with your project!

Wendy is there a reason why I don't get the drop down for the True or false? I am using the trigger?

Hi Kay

when you are creating the variables you need to create them as a 'True/False' variable not a 'Text' variable.  Then when they are used in a trigger you will see the dropbox. Your 3 variables are created as Text variables - look at my example the 3 I created sec1, sec2 etc are True/False variables.

Oh I could really kick my self right now, I am sooooo sorry I think I am just too use to captivate where these types of good options are never available.

I am going to stop bothering you but you are truly my Hero :)

No worries Kay - glad you got it sorted out ;-)

Hi Wendy!

I am working on a similar project - it's a tab-based course. I want the learners to navigate the tabs in any order they wish and I want a Begin Quiz button to show up once all tabs have been visited. I've been "fighting" with Storyline2 to get this to work. I have set up variables to for tab completions (i.e. once all buttons have been clicked, variable = true). I set up the Begin Quiz button on every tab to start as hidden but to trigger it to show when all tabs are complete. However, this only makes the Begin Quiz button show up on the last tab visited (vs on all tabs). Do you have a suggestion/idea on how I can get that dratted button to show up on all my tabs once all the tabs have been viewed?

Hi Heather

See attached quick and dirty sample to see if it helps you.  You can do the tabs in any order and the Begin Quiz button displays when they are all completed.

If not happy to take a look if you want to upload your .story file

Thank you so much!

Glad that will work for you Heather - good luck with your project!

I was finally able to complete my activity, and am pretty happy with the outcome.  Just a few outstanding issues remain.  At the end of the activity is a reset button.  I set the beginning screen so that it resets to the original, and also added a trigger to the reset button to change the values for the money cards and assistance cards to their original value when clicked.  Unfortunately, the cards aren't changing value.  Also, I can't figure out how to keep the values on the cards from going to less than zero e.g. negative values.  If anyone has the time to take a look at the file, and help me out, it would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!
