Publishing to SCORM
December 27, 2013 12:00 AM
Hello,
I created a simple course. When testing in Preview, Run and EXE, everything works. Once published in SCORM and put in Cornerstone on Demand, 3 pages don't work correctly.
Two of the pages are very similar - click an image and a corresponding text and image appear. The cooresponding text and images are grouped together. The actions are:
OnMClkHide Group 1, OnMClkHide Group 2, OnMClkShow Group 3
OnMClkHide Group 2, OnMClkHide Group 3, OnMClkShow Group 1
OnMClkHide Group 1, OnMClkHide Group 3, OnMClkShow Group 2
This process works the first time, but if the learner wants to go back and click on the images again (while still on the same page) nothing or only part of the group shows up. It works correctly in Preview, Run and EXE but in SCORM and HTML the problems start.
The other page is a drag and drop. Again, it works fine in Preview, Run and EXE. But doesn't work once published to SCORM and put in Cornerstone. Interestingly, this page works in HTML.
Has this happened to anyone else? Is there a way to correct this?
Thanks

Regarding your first problem, looks like you included the buttons in the groups as well, so when you hide a group, you hide the button, so you're not able to click it anymore. Keep the buttons outside of groups and make sure they are not obscured by any other graphics (or just set the to Always On Top).
I think the problem was that I had "Intially Hidden" checked although that doesn't explain why some objects would show.
It seems to work now that I removed the "Intially Hidden" check box and I added a white rectangle to cover all the information until it should appear. It still feels like I'm not doing something right as the white rectangle is an odd way of doing things.
I'm still not sure about the drag and drop feature. Does drag and drop work consistantly or does it seem to be rather buggy?
When I have issues with actions what I'll try to do is consolidate the actions in a single action group. In your situation I'd have an action group that hides all three groups. Then have two actions for each button. The first one is run the "Hide All" action group, and the second one shows the group you want to display. Be sure that the groups are initially hidden (if that's how you need it) rather than the individual things within the group. The white box shouldn't be necessary at all.
