Crossword Puzzle: Making Navigation Easier
Hi E-Learning Heroes community!
The e-learning team I am working with has recently been using crossword puzzles as a way for quiz interactivity.
A few internal clients have commented that they love the interaction, however, it is hard to navigate. Right now, the user can click on the box to add the letter and then tab to add the next letter. However, if the crossword is a vertical word, the tab function doesn't always go sequentially from one box to the next in the word.
I've attached the storyline file. If any crossword puzzle gurus can take a look and see how the navigation and the ease of going from one box to the next to add a letter can be simplified that would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Tatiana, You need to change the javascript so it relates to your crossword.
For example you do not have an item named Product2, but in the js you have this:
var player = GetPlayer();
var Product2=player.GetVar("Product2");
if (Product2.length > 1){
player.SetVar("Product2","");}

Hi N.M., I am not a js expert but looking at this may give you some information.

The function of the Tab key in SL relates to the focus order hence the issue when using it for another purpose. See example: https://community.articulate.com/discussions/articulate-storyline/crossword-puzzle-making-navigation-easier - SarahHodgeFormer Staff
