Hey, Everyone, We have a final assessment at the end of our course and I am wondering if it is possible to number the quiz questions so the person knows where they are at and how many questions they have left to go? Thank you, Kate

I experienced the same problem, but then I chose to use the following triggers to the question master slide which fixed it. Master Slide: 1) Add 1 when user clicks next 2) Subtract 1 when user clicks previous 3) Jump to the previous slide when user clicks previous On the normal slide view for my one question that is outside the quizbank: 1) Add 1 when user clicks submit And then on the "Review" button, there is a trigger to equal 1 when clicked. Let me know if it works for you as well! Thanks, Kate

I have only tried this with one question pool but I think it should work when using 3 - the trick is that you have to keep one question outside the question and this will always be the first question - the rest of the questions will randomize. First you have to create two numeric variables. Call the first one Page and set the initial value to zero Call the second one PageCount and set the inital value to the number of quiz questions in your test. One each of your quiz pages - add the following text box in the spot where you want the page number info to display. Question %Page% of %PageCount% Now on the very first quiz question (this is the one that sits outside of the question banks) add a slide trigger that sets the value of the variable Page to 1 as follows: On the rest of the quiz slides, add a trigger that increments the Page variable by 1 as follows: I think that is about it - you just have to make sure that first single quiz question is included in your results slide.

Okay, thanks! Try this. 1) Create a new variable. Let's call it varQuestionNumbering. Make it numeric. Initial value of 0. 2) On each question slide (or your master slide for questions), add a trigger that fires when the slide begins. This trigger will adjust the value of varQuestionNumbering by adding 1 to it. 3) On each slide, add a text box. Let's say your quiz has 12 slides total. In the text box add this: Question %varSlideNumbering% of 12. 4) Right before the quiz (good if you quiz has an intro page), add a slide trigger that fires when the slide begins and sets the value of varQuestionNumbering to 0. 5) Then, if you are going to let people re-try the quiz at the end from the results page, add a trigger when the slide begins that resets varSlideNumbering to 0. If I remember right, Steve Flowers had a variation of this that could put in the number of questions in the quiz (here, 12) rather than hard-coding it in the text box. Steve?

I have solved it by simply put a trigger on the result slide to adjust varSlideNumbering to 0 when timeline start

I was thinking about this for a bit and thought it should be pretty straightforward and would give it a try. Here's what I did: Created a number variable called QuestionCount at set the default value to 0. Added a slide trigger on each question slide that adjust the variable QuestionCount to +Add, Value 1 when the timeline starts To display the numbering I entered "Question %QuestionCount% of X" where X is the number of questions pulled from the pool on each question slide. On the results slide I put a trigger on the Review Quiz button to set the variable QuestionCount to 0. This causes the review to restart the numbering again from 1 because when the timeline begins on the review pass of the first question it will automatically be reset to 1 because of step 2 above. Seems to work properly for me.

What if you set your review mode to show only incorrect questions? The numbering will not match the original question numbers. Articulate should add a built-in variable for question numbers.

Hi Gary,

Thanks for the feature recommendation!

I’ll be happy to pass your thoughts on to our product team, but you can also feel free to detail them more through a feature request!

The problem is this does not solve the numbering when reviewing correct/incorrect answers. The page counts will continue to go up when the user navigates forward and backward when reviewing.
