It's easy to get stuck when using quiz slides in Captivate
When setting up question slides, it's easy to get stuck on that slide when users navigate back to a questions slide they already answered. There is no way to proceed.
Add a questoin slide. Turn off the skip options. Turn off the Playbar in quiz. Add any navigation to allow users to go back to the question slide. Preview. Answer the question. Return to the question slide. You are stuck there.
There are many reasons to turn off skip and playbar. But users are now stuck on a question slide they already answered.

Multiple choice Multiple answers: checkboxes please
For a MCQ slides with multiple correct answers, I would expect checkboxes instead of radio buttons. This is a globally accepted way to clarify to the user that multiple answers may be selected. It is contrary to all protocols that this should be chosen.

Hint message???
In Preferences, Quizzing, Default Labels there is a 'Hint message' but after in-depth exploring this has no sense. There is no way to activate a Hint to appear, the multistate objects for the feedback messages during quizzing and Review do not have a Hint state at all. Moreover it is impossible to add custom states to any button, including the embedded buttons on quiz and score slides. I tried with multiple attempts on question level, where a hint would make sense from the second attempt, but situation is the same.

Combination characters in CSV replaced by Chinese characters
Dutch, like many other European languages has some combination characters. When I have the word 'creëren' in een CSV file, the two characters 'eë' after import are replaced by one chinese character. Too bad that I can't add a screenshot. I used Gill Sans as font. I am able to delete the chinese character, but there is no way to have the second ë with the double points on top appearing in any answer. This is a real important bug!

Confusing Error log after CSV import
Since there is no longer an Advanced Interaction panel to check the total score possible, I use the SUM functionality of Excel to calculate the total score in the score column. I had 7 questions, an empty line and than the sum. When importing the CSV both the empty line and the sum line are considered to be uncomplete questions and you get an error log with a lot of errors, whereas this is not important at all. It is nice that you can override the errors and import. However I imagine that this can be confusing. Not a game…

TRUE/FALSE translation in CSV not imported
I try to localise a quiz, and replaced TRUE/FALSE by its Dutch version, sometimes 'WAAR/ONWAAR' or JA/NEE'. However after import to a project, the default TRUE/FALSE replaces the translation. This is a bug. Even for English versions it is sometimes better to have other terms than TRUE/FALSE, depending on the question.

isabel.yeo@enlighten-opex.com
The feedback responses in a knowledge/check quiz default to grey text on a coloured background and I have to manually edit the text colour for each state for each question slide.
Even worse it's really hard to get to viewing those states I spend ages clicking around and get there by accident.
Please default it to white text on coloured background, and have a clear button or something that shows how to get there and edit.1 vote -
Multiple failure captions
Give back the multiple Failure captions for questions with multiple attempts. It used to be 3 in all older versions, but I wouldn't mind more than 3.
Since the captions are now states in a multistate object. But is impossible to add states to this object and even if that was possible, there is no way to address that object with an interaction, since it is an embedded object without ID.
Look at this workflow which I recently demonstrated for a user. The workflow with the failure captions works also in a responsive project with Fluid Boxes, but not in…1 vote -
Review Quiz: why dimming?
When reviewing the quiz, the answers remain dimmed like they are after submitting. Not very friendly for older eyes: light grey on a white background. If you use images as answers, a state is applied to them during Review, state which is not editable because I cannot even figure out which one it is. It looks like the original Hover state, but - since disable has no effect for that state - I always make it identical to the Normal state. Where is the state visibble in the Review mode?

Deleting second step Submit Process
The only way to get rid of the feedback messages, a question I often get all over social media, is a clumsy workaround (will post a blog post and add the link here). To achieve this for a complete quiz, you can take out the Default labels, and set the system colors for Success and 'Error' (why do you use that term is a mystery) in the Theme to 0%. But... contrary to previous versions where taking out the feedback messages resulted in getting rid of the second step of the Submit process (click on slide or Y) tthat is…

Bug: Quiz questions skipped in Preview (captivate 12)
I have a quiz with 7 questions, and when I preview the project, I go from the quiz intro slide straight to the quiz results slide. The quiz results shows that 0 questions where answered. My settings have that all questions must be answered.
I have rebuilt my quiz question slides multiple times and no matter what I do clicking the Next button on the Intro slide skips over all of the questions. I've checked the button interaction and it's set to Go to next slide....Please fix!!

Show Score in Quiz Preferences
If you use only scored objects, it should be possible to show the Score slide using the Option in Quiz Preferences. At this moment it will only show in Preview if you have at least one regular question.

Quiz slide Multiple Choice, Multiple Answers, Partial scoring Penalty missing
BUG: there is no way to enter a penalty in this case.
You need to be able to add a negative score or a penalty to the wrong answers. Presently only the correct answers can get a positive score.1 vote -
Edit transitions on Quiz buttons
For some reason when you select the submit button on a quiz you cannot edit the interaction to set up a transition. Well, at least not directly. I found that if you select the button and click back to one of your main slides and then select the interactions panel, when you return to the quiz, the interaction panel for the quiz button is open and you can edit it. You can then keep moving to the next slide and editing each one. This seems like a weird gatekeep for no reason, you should just be able to edit the…
