Course Help
July 12, 2013 12:00 AM
I have created a course with test questions. I have enabled the feedback for each question to Display Page in a Popup with target snapshot.
Problem i am having is if i am on a question and answer it wrong, the popup windows comes up with the page i referenced. But there is no way to get back to the test unless i click on the X button on the template. that will bring me back to the test questions.
Is there any way to edit the popup windows to display a CLOSE button?
Thanks,

Thank You for the response.
If the question is missed, the popup comes up. Well, there is no way of knowing how to get back to the test unless you know to look for the X. And with 300 students a day, our proctors would be busy busy going around and showing them how to get back to the test after each question they miss.
So if i can get the popup to be in a separate sized window. Or put a BIG RED close button on the popup windows. I am just not sure the best way.
We also got tired of the support questions so we built our popups with a close button.
Why don't you just open a smaller page, so the new window won't cover all of the main window. Your learners would be able to see the test page beneath and even if they don't know about the X (which I can hardly imagine) they could still just click in the main window and leave the popup open behind it.

I see what you're saying now. I thought you wanted to course to go somewhere other than back to the test after closing the window.
As far as I know, there is no native ability in Lectora to change the popup, since it's general GUI standard that windows are closed by clicking an "x" in the corner. (using the close window/exit title action just closes the entire course)
I would hope that most of your users are used to that standard (otherwise you may be in for a lot of pain with elearning :p), but if not, you could just put an attention grabbing text or graphic alerting them to click the "x" to close the popup to return to the test.
