Setting navigation options for an interaction

Documents created using the quiz templates have built-in navigation; be sure to set Navigation to Off if you're using a quiz template. For documents that do not use the quiz template, you can set navigation options that display a Next Question button in your movie.

To set navigation options for an interaction:

1 | Select the Learning Interaction component, to the left of the Stage if you're using a quiz template.
2 | If the Component Parameters panel is not already visible, launch it from the Property inspector. Then click Options, at the bottom of the panel.
3 | Under Navigation, specify how the movie will proceed after the user submits a response for this interaction:
| Select Off to disable navigation. Select this option if you are using the quiz templates, because the templates include their own navigation.
| Select Next Button to require the user to click a Next button after submitting a response. In the GoTo Action field, select either Stop or Play. The Next button is a PushButton component that you can use with stand-alone interactions independent of the quiz template.
| If you want to navigate to a labeled frame instead of the next frame, enter a frame label in the GoTo Label text box.
| The default text for the Next button is Next Question. If you want to change the text, see Changing the text for the Next button.
| Select Auto GoTo Next Frame to have the movie proceed to the next frame after the user submits a response.
| If Feedback is deselected and Knowledge Track is selected, the Auto GoTo Next Frame feature can be enabled. This feature submits a score after evaluation and immediately navigates to the next frame for the next interaction.
| Note: If Feedback is selected or Knowledge Track is deselected, Auto GoTo Next Frame will be reset to Next Button and an error message will appear in the Output window.

Changing the text for the Next button

If you are using a quiz template, you do not use the Next button. If you are not using a quiz template, and you have Next Button selected in the Component Parameters panel, the Next button appears after the user answers a question.

Changing the text for the Next button is an example of how you can modify the scripts.

The default text for the Next Button feature is Next Question. To change this to Next or any other text, you use ActionScript to change the text indicated for the `LToolBox` command.

To change the text for the Next button:

1 | Open the Library panel (Window > Library), then open the 1_LGlobalClass folder and open the LGlobalClasss movie clip.
2 | Open the Actions panel (Window > Actions), and click the Find button.
3 | In the Find dialog box, type Next Question, then click Find Next.
4 | Change the text to the text you want to be displayed for the button.
| First occurrence of Next Question
5 | In the Find dialog box, click Find Next to find the next occurrence of `Next Question` and change it. Changing these two occurrences changes every instance where the Next Question text occurs.
