Captivate 4 Arbitrarily Changing Quiz Question Values?

May 14, 2012 7:44 AM

I've got a client who uses Captivate 4, and she's having a problem with quiz score values.  She has 12 separate assessments, each with either 10, 15, or 25 questions, and she's very sure she has consistent question values in each so that each quiz adds up to 100 points. 

 

Other users have opend the .cp movies and found the quizzes don't add up. Some vary as much as 10 points.  When she opens the files, they're at 100 points.  I opened one in Cap 5.5 and found that the value of two questions changed. 

 

Any ideas on what's going on?  I do remember that another client a few years ago was having scoring fits with Cap 3 along these same lines.  I don't know if he ever found a solution. 

 

Thanks.

    Were any of these quiz questions originally created in an earlier version of Captivate and then upgraded?

     

    Is this client using Report as SCORE instead of Report as PERCENTAGE in Quiz Settings?

     

    If using SCORE, and you always need to have the questions add up to 100 for everything to work, I would suggest you try using Percentage instead.  It's usually easier to work with.
