Hot Spot questions
September 22, 2005 12:00 AM
I thought maybe I should clarify my previous answer for others who might want to include the functionality in their projects.1. Add a question of the type "Fill in the Blank"2. Enter your question text3. Import the image you wish to use4. Enter the answer that would be correct.5. Provide any incorrect or correct feedback you would like.6. Click Finish7. Move the Entry field for the question to anywhere on the screen and check the box "Initially Invisible."The next step's are a little more involved. You will need to add transparent buttons to cover the entire image. As you add each transparent button, click the tab under the button properties for the "On Click" event handler. You want to use the following settings: Action: MODIFY VARIABLE Target: Question# Variable Value: {whatever the correct answer is} Modification Type: Set Variable Contents You will use this same type of functionality for each of the other transparent buttons to cover the incorrect areas of the image.Basically what you are doing is creating hotspots via transparent buttons and then using the "On Click" event assigning different values to the question variable.When Lectora goes to check the answer it will be verifying the correct answer with whatever has been assigned to the question variable through the transparent button "on click" event.You may want to go further to create outlines that appear around each transparent button when clicked but that's up to you.I hope this helps. If I wasn't clear in my explanation, I apologize in advance.
