Adding Buttons to Display Messages

Hi there-

I'm creating a test and would like to customize the Exit/Cancel button. When someone clicks on it I would like a display message to explain that they are canceling the test and will need to start over if they proceed. I'd like to add "Yes" and "No" buttons within the message - if they click yes, they exit and cancel the test. If they click no, then the message disappears and they can continue on with the test.


My question is - how do I do this?


Thanks in advance for your responses!

It worked perfectly! Thank you!

i'd create a group of objects at title level (text box, yes button, no button) and have it hidden as default. Position it somewhere near your exit/cancel button and make it 'always on top'. Then change the action of the exit button to show this group. The action on the Yes button can be set to exit the test. The no button can simply hide the pop-up group.

no problem.


The group should actually sit at test level (not title level) so that it could be used if you have multiple tests. You'd use a separate group for each test section.

I would create one group as described at the TITLE level and just exclude it from chapters where I did NOT want it to be used.

A button at title level couldn't cancel a test. The 'cancel test' action is specific to each test in a title so it would need to be called at test level.

Oh, right. I was thinking of an Exit button.
