Who knows how to realize these two effects

Who knows how to realize these two effects in the demo course linked. Thanks a lot!

http://www.articulate.com/products/demos/blog/prometheus/player.html

Effect 1: ( page 22) Quizes takes up half of the slide, and when click the Submit botton, feedbakc shows below.

Effect 2:(page 25) When click on one of the 4 pictures, the respective feedback is shown on the same page.

Hmmm...looks like both cases are using custom Flash elements, but you could design something pretty close in Articulate only.

For effect 1, the easiest way to do this may be to stylize the question in quizmaker. organizing the anser options into the right side. Then using the built in pop-up feedback by answer to provide responses. For the same functionality, you should set the question to unlimited attempts.

For effect 2,  you could build a similar effect using hidden slides. Let's assume the slide with the quadrent menu is slide 1. Duplicate this slide (slide 2,). On slide 2, create the feedback box and response for the first response option, including the close button. Then duplicate this 3 more times (slide 3,4 and 5), and change the reponse content on each slide for each respective response. Now to add the navigation, on slide 1, place hyperlinks over each response choice linking the user to the appropriate response slide in your presentation. Then on each response slide, place a link over the close button linking the user back to slide 1. For the final part of the effect, hide the response slides in the slide properties of the presenter so the user doesn't see a change in the player when they go to the response slide.

The custom flash is a little bit more finessed (rollovers, seemless changes as content enters) and it's probably a bit easier to manage in Power Point (1 slide vs 5), but you definitely can acheive the basic results and make it look good in just Presenter.
