Hi --

You are talking about making a set of radio button fields, where the user can select one button from a set.

Please check out the tutorials and search the Ask an Expert database for information on how to work with form fields.

Create a question page and an answer page.

On the question page add a button under the question. In the button action, add this JavaScript. Note: Change the text in this example to suit the question.

var t = this. getField(“target"); // the target field var cResponse = app. response ({ cQuestion: "What is your age?", cTitle: "Age Definition", } ) ; // title of the dialog box { if ( cResponse == null) app. alert ("Please complete the question."); // if Cancel is selected else app. alert ( "You responded, \" "+cResponse+"\" , is this correct? ", 3); } t. value = cResponse; // places the data from the dialog to the target field

When the user clicks the button, a dialog box will appear for them to type in the answer.

Place a text field on the answer page and name the field "target"

The typed in text from the dialog box will appear on the answer page.

Repeat this process for each question and answer.

Note: All fields and buttons must have unique names.

Bookmarking and Formatting Result Appearance.

1. Is there a bookmarking option in Adobe Presenter that you can use so that the LMS keeps track of the last page learner visited and loads it the next time the user launches the course again?

2. Is it possible to remove the table that dispalys teh quiz results and show it the way we want? Currnetly it shows Accuracy and {percent} in a table on the last slide. Can we change it to text like "Your socre is {percent}"?

I have created a quiz with four questions. The questions are not on continuous pages but different slides apart. Two attempts are allowed for the questions and they all have incomplete, try again, incorrect , and complete feedbacks.

On the first quiz, after answering it (correctly or incorrectly) I clcik the back button instead of clicking anywhere on the screen to continue. I again come to the question page by clicking the play button. Then, again I click the back button after answering the question. Now, I am not able to move to the next page (the question page) at all. This happens only with the first question and not with the others. I tried deleting the quiz manually and through quiz manager and added the questions again. But it still behaves the same way - only the first question. Does anyone know how to fix this?

This must be done in Adobe Presenter. Under Quiz manager (seen as a tab in Powerpoint), you will be given different options. If you do not have an existing quiz, click "add new quiz". Once you have done that, you click on "add new question", and you will be given a choice of question types.

This could be an issue with your version of Powerpoint, Adobe Connect, and Presenter. What versions are you running on for these?

I want to make Quizzes in PowerPoint shows using Acrobat Presenter 7 (part of Acrobat 9 Pro Extended). They're for chemistry, so I need superscripts and subscripts in both the question and answer fields, and it would be even better if the student could also type them in their responses. It is possible to have Rich Text formatting in Presenter Quizzes? And if so, how do I do it?

This is actually pretty easy, although not necessarily intuitive, to achieve. To do this:

1. Author your quiz questions in the Quiz Manager without worry about formatting.
2. Create the quiz by clicking OK in the quiz manager.
3. Once the quiz slides are created in PowerPoint by Presenter, you can format them as you would any PowerPoint slide.

You can change font size/face/formatting, move quiz elements around (really useful for drag-and-drop), you can even add a graphic or flash movie to help bring the question to life.

I've created a tutorial on using Quizzing in Adobe Presenter on the Acrobat Connect Pro [url=http://www.adobe.com/resources/acrobatconnect/]Resource Center[/url]: http://seminars.adobe.acrobat.com/presenterquizzes/

There is a great, but out of date article, that talks about the reporting options in Presenter. The article refers to "Breeze Presenter" which was the product's name when it was being developed at Macromedia, but the content is still relevant to Adobe Presenter 7:

I'm working to get this content updated very soon

Unfortunately this is not possible in the current version
