We embed Vimieo videos into our courses using the the embedded code in an HTML Extension.  This works great, however, we are now doing a course where we have 2 videos on one page.  When you click a button video1 appears and you can click the play button on the video.  If you click button2 video1 will hide […]

When publishing to Reviewlink, please remove the default check in the box to change “New” and “Not OK” comments to “Fixed”. This box checks itself every time I publish and has caused me to miss a lot of new comments.   Thank you!

Hello, I’m attempting some jQuery in Lectora Online and looking for some help. The only tutorials I’ve found on the subject are Sergey’s excellent blog posts, but they’re 5 years old now and relate to Lectora desktop. So, I found this little script that will change text color based on scroll position. I am trying to use it […]

so I saw a pop up about new audio features released recently. I remember not too long ago there were other new features added. I was wondering if there is a list of “release notes” for Cenario VR that I can take a look at?

Hi all, I wonder if you can help. I want to limit the number of test attempts a user has and have each attempt passed back through to my LMS, where the module locks down after 3 attempts. I’ve added a variable ExamAttempts, set it at 0 and retained between sessions and when I stay […]

Hello Everyone, it’s been a while… I don’t normally use Lectora to deliver quizzes and tests but someone recently asked me to produce a test for them. Tests in Lectora have the ability to produce a Results page – very nice BUT… the format is not at all what I would like to show the […]

Hi Everyone, I am trying to create a topic on one long page, and I’m experimenting with different anchored nav bars. I have one at the top and one along the right side. The bar at the top goes to the main menu and other external pages. The menu at the side has buttons which go […]

When I select Insert>Chart, the program just bings at me like a Windows error.  Nothing shows up to insert data into, no popup window, etc.  Any suggestions?

I’m in Lectora 17. I’ve downloaded two different elearning bros course starters (80s Neon and Shamrock). When I drag and drop the file into Lectora, I get a status bar that makes it appear to be downloading, the status bar finishes – then Lectora freezes. I’ve waited upwards of 20 min just thinking it was […]

Throughout the training module I am working on in Lectora Inspire there are various links with display messages that appear when you click on the.  When I view these messages in Lectora Inspire they look correct but when I view them within our LMS training platform they look totally different. How can I fix this.  […]

Hi all. I have exported my simulation as html. I am wanting to play this locally (offline) in my oculus headset. I have put the file in headset and followed the file:///sdcard/oculus/index.html path however it doesn’t work. I have also gone directly to the folder and the file is not showing. Is this something that […]

Hello, I’m developing a survey within Lectora as a series of questions. I would like to use Radio buttons: Sample Question: Are you male or female? a) Male b) Female c) Prefer not to answer By default, Lectora wants one of these to be correct and reports that as correct and the others as wrong […]

I downloaded the instructions in the article https://community.trivantis.com/shared-content/custom-html5-media-player-skins/ to customize my skin, including recoloring the images they provided.  However, my closed captioning is not showing either with the original file or my modified one, the buttons don’t give me the “none” or English option, even though the background of the captioning appears.  I would like […]

Hello! My name is Coy and we’ve been experiencing some issues with courses being completed and passed; however, Coursemill is not updating to show completed or passed. In addition, if we go in to manually modify through the gradebook, it will not update unless we unregister the student and reregister them. Our courses seem to […]

Our videos are all on Vimeo, so I’m displaying them using an HTML extension. They work great in a standard (non-responsive) course, no matter what kind of display we’re using, including all the phones we’ve tried. But when I make the course responsive, there’s a problem. They look fine on my iPhone 8 (version 12.1.2), […]

Can you edit your course while using VR goggles like an Oculus or HTC vibe? or is it only editable on the browser?

Hi Everyone, I designed a test in Lectora 18.1.2 where the feedback is hidden and then displayed when users click the Submit button.  Thankfully, the screen readers are now able to read the feedback when displayed on screen; however, the reader reads the entire page before it reads the feedback.  For instance, after the feedback is displayed, the […]

Have you used Lectora or CenarioVR in a cool, unusual, or interesting way? If so, I’d like to hear from you! I am looking for 3-4 speakers willing to share how they have solved learning challenges using our products. Each speaker would present for about 10-12 minutes (READ: not a lot of work). It involves […]

Just updated to 18.1.2 – Context:  building a test where after the test is graded and the user is taken back to their missed question via hyperlink: I have a button that shows up if they have gotten through the test once before that will take them to their ‘next missed question’.  I have a […]

Is it possible to create one video file out of two separate files? I can get both files to play on the same page by creating a series of actions, but I was hoping to combine two files into one so that associates see only one control bar at the bottom of the video.  

Situation: I build something with an audio file and add a lot of “On: Done Playing” actions to it. Later on I change my mind, create an action group and drag all actions from the audio object to the group: Lectora kindly informs me that “On: Done playing” triggers are not supported for group actions. […]

Hi everyone. We are considering a move from Lectora Inspire to Lectora Online. One of our concerns is the 4GB limit on cloud storage. How do you all navigate this limitation? I can’t test this in my trial version, but I’m wondering if it is feasible to export projects as Lectora Online packages and archive […]

Is there a way to either automatically select (or deselect) circles in a radio button group? Scenario:  I have one set of radio buttons show a 2nd set of radio buttons.  Is there a way to automatically have an option on that 2nd set of radio buttons selected based on the first radio button group […]

We converted some Flash content into MP4 and play the video in Lectora. We’d like to have the video stays at the last frame when completed instead of going back to the first frame with a play button on top. Is there a way to achieve that? Thanks,

All of my text is identified in Lectora styles, no custom css files.  Since I updated to 18.2 and I run or preview the course, all of my text is now showing up.  For example, the text Module R101 (subtitle style) appears as: div aria-live=”polite” id=”text13347″>a id=”text13347anc” style=”display:block;height:0px;width:0px;”>/a> p lang=”en” style=”margin-left:0px;text-indent:0px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;text-align:center;” > span class=”text13347Font1″ >Module R101 […]

I want to be able to move an object to different locations, and I assumed that using a variable as the X and/or Y positions would do that. But it seems that the first time I run a program, it hard-codes the location into the MoveTo location, and doesn’t change after that. The variable value […]

I am using CourseMill 8 and am trying to figure out why the enroll button is greyed out but only from one path. If you are in the Dashboard and you click on the course title from the Course Catalog panel, you are taken to a page in the Course Catalog where just that course […]

Before my most recent upgrade to version 18.0.2, I had a very useful toolbar at the bottom of my screen, which included things like “Preview in Browser,” size and position info, zoom, and, I think, alignment shortcuts (although I’m not sure…it’s hard to remember exactly what I had down there all at once….I keep realizing […]

It would be nice if there were built-in functionality for swipe actions to mirror button actions for navigation. Meaning, if I have a button on a page which takes the user to the next page, a swipe left action should also automatically be on that page to do the same. Similarly, if the button action take […]

Hi all, new week new idea 🙂 i am sure that this works in Lectora. But is there any easy and fast way? Students should confirm if the got all devices. It would be very cool if i can see in our LMS if the list is complete or not. In the title i would […]

Want to skip or turn off here is a simple way to do that. At the title level, you will want to add an HTML Extension with the type of Bottom File scripting. Edit the object and this following code to the editor. Or simply add the attached AWO to the title level. <script> enableAutoStart […]

Hi all, i have encoded a short videofile with handbrake (Open Source Video Transcoder) The result is a .m4v file. I think its the same like MP4. The quality is very good and the size very small. When i will import it in my title in lectora online, it ask me to convert and if i do […]

  Good morning Everyone, I was finally able to get the 508 approval to my course, however, I’m running into another issue with the LMS folks.  Here’s the issue: – I created a reward token for users when they complete each lesson. – The token page appears in a pop-up window when the user clicks […]

It is possible to share content across multiple courses. Multiple titles can be used to create common modules and “meta-courses” that load common modules and can contain their own specific content as well. How to share common course modules.pkg this is the meta-course which includes the modules published contents. Module1.pkg a shared module Module2.pkg a […]

Please fix the known issue with standard buttons that appear blurry when published. This problem has been in the Lectora product for a very long time and needs to be addressed. I continue to receive complaints, and I shouldn’t have to become a programmer to write custom code to implement a workaround. Buttons are a […]

Can anyone assist me in replacing the Mail To action previously in Lectora? I have previously used this action in a few instances throughout several courses and now have to go back and update all of these. Scanning for forums, I found a post on creating the following javascript: var email = “sample@mail.com”; var subject […]

When I type Spanish accents into Notepad all looks perfect, but once the closed captioning is added to Lectora and the course is played, the accents are replaced with an odd question mark error symbol. Has anyone found a way around this? Our CEO is wanting this project done today, so I only have a […]

Hi all. I have created some content and published it live. The link works good on a laptop and I can complete the whole course. However when I do this on my oculus it loads up but when I go to look at the hotspots to move around etc it doesn’t seem to work. Sometimes […]

Apple has made a few changes in iOS 12.2 that make WebVR a bit more challenging. Thought it would be important to note them here in case anyone runs into them. These changes only affect running VR content in a Browser on iOS (both an iPhone and an iPad), the CenarioVR App for iOS is […]

Hi All,   I have a course with a custom control bar along the bottom of the course. It has forward, back, pause, and home actions through custom buttons, along with a button to display a transcript popup (in lieu of CC) and an audio assistance button that plays audio files when an on-screen activity […]

I’m trying to troubleshoot a video issue with 17.1.7 and full screen video in IE 11 on Cornerstone OnDemand (CSOD). When the course opens in the primary monitor full screen video works properly. When I move the course window to a secondary monitor and attempt to use full screen video IE temporarily shows full screen […]

Hi all, I have created a test where the learner selects the correct images out of a grid of images. They are able to have as many attempts as they like and can get the answers shown between attempts. The mechanics of it are: Start button that shows the test. Fill in the blank question […]

for example:  if the user is clicking 3 times on the same button he comes to the next page. Is such scenario possible? Greetings Marcel

Hello all, I know this is an unusual use case but hear me out:  I’ve been asked by a stakeholder to move some Lectora 18 projects back to Lectora 17. When I use Lectora 17 to open these files, most of the images are bright pink. Has anyone else encountered this? Has a root cause […]

Is this possible? We’re thinking of making the switch, but concerned about ability to edit legacy projects made in Inspire 16 and 18. Thanks, Dominic

HI together, i have a problem again. In my course there are some Videos and quizes and after every Video there comes a quiz. So i uses for the video the action “on playing done” “go to” Quiz. this works fine but everytime at the jump to the quiz the first frame of the video […]

Hello Not sure if I have looked in the right places, but I would like my lesson to open in a browser that has no bars in it at all, e.g. no URL, no bookmarks bar etc… so as to fully fill the screen. Does Lectora let you do that easily? Thanks for your help/ideas […]

Users are no longer prompted to return to last page viewed after closing, then reopening.  Sent back to page one and all saved variables are also not holding. Yes, it is published to prompt user to the last viewed page and all variables are set to save between sessions.  This is a new issue and […]

Hello, I have been using Lectora for few months now and really enjoy the program. Recently, I discovered variables. This opened up so many possibilities for creating algorithmic questions. However, I am not able to find a way to format my in-line variables. Based on my research, I have to use JavaScript in order to […]

Hello, I’m using Lectora Inspire (version 18.0.2). Since the latest upgrade, I am experiencing issues with hotspot questions. It appears as if the program moves and shrinks the hotspots and the buttons that are used on its own. The problem appears to affect all views. There are two issues happening. First, when I copy pages with […]

Hi, Test was created which then, at the request of the client, required a section adding within it, I tried this on a test test and all was fine, however when I added a section to the test and moved the question pages into it, it disappeared. Anyone have any experience of this and why […]

A personal review. Start Screen meh Stock Buttons meh Camtasia Snagit meh Disable tablet phone view Maybe ok, though not something a client has ever requested. HTML5-only publish I’m surprised you’re still publishing using Flash. I would prefer you actually published valid, good, accurate, correct HTML5 and not rely on last century JavaScript to generate […]

Does anyone else have the issue to the ‘Convert To Image’ box checking itself? I’ve had to go through several times and UNCHECK the ‘Convert To Image’ box because some/most/not all check themselves and my text shows up as a broken image (see attached screenshot). I’m on 18.0.2 and the course was developed in (I […]

Lectorians!  Lend me your ears! And brain. I have an assessment that is 50 questions, with checkpoint pages along the way at 25%, 50%, and 75%. Is there a way that I see *how far* into the assessment the learner gets in the event they don’t make it to the end (i.e. power/internet outage; they […]

Hi all, Any idea why a Lectora 16 course that worked fine in our LMS (SumTotal) would start having issues when edited and uploaded as a new course using Lectora 18.0.2? The course has a timer using the AICC_Time variable, and we have the “last viewed page” prompt checked. However, with the new upload, the timer resets every […]

Dear CVR team, I found an issue on Android smartphones. I put the html 5 scenarios on my webspace and checked the behavior. It works perfect on iOS ( both Chrome and Safari ). But it seems data loading stops on Android smartphones ( Android 8.1 and 7.0, so far I have checked. ) Please […]

I’m using a table of contents on my home page.  The client would like a version of that list as a separate page.  Is there a way to export the TOC list along with all the related links?  Or perhaps generate a new page from that list? Thanks for any guidance!

Hiya I’ve been searching to find a way to publish my course offline and all the instructions I find for this seem to only apply to Lectora Inspire. I don’t see the option at all in Lectora Online. I just wan to check if I’m not missing something and if it is possible to publish […]

I’m having a problem with version 18, that I haven’t noticed with previous versions, but maybe I just didn’t notice before. The click area over my back and next buttons doesn’t line up with the buttons. Users have to click below the buttons to get them to work. Here is a video link to show […]

Hello. I have several text boxes that are initially hidden on a page. A user has to click on a button for the text box to appear. Unfortunately, as the page is loaded, these “hidden” text boxes flash before disappearing. Is there a way to prevent them from flashing? Note that it happens when my course […]

The xAPI title I was working in was meant to be cmi5! Not too much work wasted. The published title is launched correctly by a dummy LMS we’ve built and the title successfully fetches an authorization token. The next thing the title needs to do is to “… get the ‘contextTemplate’ value from the ‘LMS.LaunchData’ […]

I have had instances where the Lectora 18.02 .EXE is being deleted when I have: changed the size of a page Or published the course in a different area Has anyone experienced this?   I always have had to reinstall the software after this happens.   Thanks

Hello, I’m developing a course that has a few pop-up windows with audio. So, there is a main Lectoa page with a button that opens another Lectora page in a new window. There is audio on both the main page and on the pop-up page. The actions are set up so that the audio on […]

I’m having a new issue that has not come up before. When testing a SCORM2004 course created in Lectora 17 in Chrome, a strange error appears. Some of our content is linked via web window.

Hello Everyone, it’s been a while… Is there a way of connecting Lectora to a good quality text to speech converter? I would like to be able to display a page and then play the contents of selected text fields. If such a converter does exist, would you kindly tell me where to find it and […]

Hi Trivantis community, We are regularly experience an error playing the Trivantis Fire & Rescue module in iFrame on our website. (see attachment) When we reüpload the iFrame link the issue is solved, however, this problems keeps on occuring. Any tips on what causes this error causes and how to solve it?  

Dear CVR team, Thank you so much for offering such a wonderful service. I am really grateful to it and being part of the community. Here’re some new features I wish you add in near future.  I may call it “Kiosk mode” feature as a special function of a special group. If a student was assigned to […]

Hi Everyone, I know this topic has been around for a while 2 or 3 years ago but could not find any solution to this question: how do I change the HTML name to objects in Lectora?  The 508 returns my project with a comment that their devices read only button1234 and they need me to […]

Currently I have a Lectora Form that I submit to Google Drive.  Works great.  I then take that data and send to SmartSheet using a SmartSheet add-0n to sync the 2.  SmartSheet automatically creates a new Sheet, and syncs all the data.  There seems to be a 5,000 row limit however with that setup, so […]

It would be great from a javascript standpoint if there were a reserved variable that offered the structure of the course (Chapters, Sections, Pages, maybe even AU for SCORM).   I see this as a variable that you could access from any page and dig into structure of the course in a javascript array of […]

Is there a way to access a list of all chapters and sections in a title? I don’t see a reserved variable for it.   There’s current chapter name, current section name, total pages in section, and total pages in chapter. But.. is there a way, from any page in the title, to query for […]

Hi! I assumed that when I have buttons with each a down state in a responsive title, it would also show in the mobile version. So, when pressing a button, I expected to see the down state. But I tested it, and it doesn’t show. It only happens for desktop. Am I correct? Thanks in […]
