Hi everyone,
Great news! I've made a few tests and so far so good; no problems found. My team will continue testing the quiz timer and if we find any trouble, I'll get back here.
Now, during the time the quiz timer feature wasn't working I've tried to make a quiz timer in JavaScript, it didnt't work 100% but it was possible to make a few "tricks" as:
- give the learner a sound and image alert when the time was close to end.
Example: We had a quiz timer with 2 hours, if the learner reaches 1 hour and 50 minutes without finishing the quiz, we showed a slide layer with sound saying "you have only 10 minutes left", the learner presses OK in this slide layer and continue the quiz.
My question is, is there any way to reference to the native quiz timer from Storyline and create something like this?
If no, here is a suggestion: add this feature in the quiz timer configurations, I'm sure a lot of users will benefit from this.
To illustrate my example I'll add my .story file in this topic, you can see the JS code and the triggers i've used in the slide master from any question.
This question was made in support case #02970213 as well, but I wanted to bring here so if anyone have this doubt too.
