General Capabilities Question

We do this quite a bit. This method; however, requires that the feedback be entered into a separate text box on the page, and not into the "Feedback" box when you're editing a question, but it does keep all the feedback on the same page (vs. a popup window).Alternatively, you can put your text box in a Group, along with any other images, etc., and display the Group on correct/incorrect to allow for complex feedback.Another option is to set the feedback to display another Page in your course (this is within the Question editor). While this does allow you to design the feedback more to your liking, it will still open the feedback in a popup window, which is something we like to avoid.It would be brilliant if Lectora allowed you to set the Feedback you define in the Question Editor to display in a text box of your choice; however if I'm not mistaken, the text in the Feedback box is set as a Javascript "alert," and not as the value to a Feedback variable. If it did set a variable instead of an alert, you could mine the value of VAR(Feedback) and set it to the contents of the text box of your choice.
