Hello, I’m looking to build an eLearning course that has multiple tests, in one course. The way that I’m looking to structure it, is by having a main menu, that has links to each of the individual assignable units. So what I’m trying to do is have one master assignable unit, that has several other […]

I have been embedding video files made in camtasia into Lectora presentations, but have found that once published, the videos lose quality – the images and the text look blurry. Is there a solution to fix this? Thanks!

Hello! How can I get feedback in drag-and-drop question (var q1) after each drag-and-drop action?

I’m looking for a scholarly reference on reasons why it is helpful to allow trainees the freedom to complete only those modules of a course they wish to complete, vs. forcing them to touch each page in a specific, assigned order. Any suggestions? jkerper@albany.edu

My current project features a lot of actions happening on the screen. Every page has audio and sometimes even video. Both are not a problem but I have one resource button on course that is global And in resource pop up I have video’s which play is when user clicks on buttons. The problem is […]

We have one location that is getting these messages in one course. We have many other courses that all work fine and other locations have no trouble with this course. Any ideas? Unable to find an API adapter they click okay ***Another popup appears: Unable to locate the LMS’s API implementation

I am bran stinking new to Lectora and I am getting a head ache from not being able to figure this out. I have built a course in Lectura X and I have a simple five question exam in it. I can finish the course and have a close button to exit the course but […]

I have a small WBT with 2 embedded mp4 videos. Is ActiveX needed to successfully run these? When I have ActiveX disabled, I get an error message saying the video path is invalid, but no issues when ActiveX is enabled. Is there any way around ActiveX when embedding video – perhaps not using the video […]

I am testing courses on an iPAD Air 2 and am experiencing inconsistent behavior, sometimes the course opens and sometimes it does not.  I am trying to first identify if the issues is with the course itself in Lectora or the LMS.  The courses do not have flash video. Does anyone have success with courses […]

First create an action that moves PagesInTitle to a new variable, say X: Action: Modify Variable; Target: X; Value: Var(PagesInTitle). Then subtract what you need to from there. Then use X instead of PagesInTitle. As the member above suggested, you may want to consider instead putting all pages you want covered in a chapter and […]

After wrangling some jquery to embed webfonts throughout my course, I thought “this would be a great feature!” In the styling it would be great if we could define webfonts to use.  For example, link it to google fonts for the beginning and then go from there. This way I don’t have to try and use […]

Hi all, Have you tried clearing the Temp folder/browser cache? That’s the best way to make sure entries are cleared. If this does not work, I would contact Snap! support to dig a little deeper into the issue. You can either call 866-852-6700 or fill out a support form here: http://rapid-e-learning.lectora.com/Contact-SNAP-by-Lectora-Support – Molly

You may be able to alleviate the timing issue by adding as you go.  On the very first page, set your memo_end to be 0. I assume you have some method for the user to navigate from page to page, like a Continue or Next button.  If so, then you can assign a new action […]

I have run Captivate animations in Lectora that were captured at the same settings as yours. The course size was smaller. So, we had the Captivate animations open in a separate window so it could be the appropriate size. That worked fine for us because we were not collecting any user inputs from the animations […]

Hello I have been playing intermittently with Lectora so it is probably something I have done wrong. Also… it may be something peculiar to my PC. But… I have been working with audio recordings (MP3) with Lectora 12.1 for some time with no proeblems. Until this morning. My audio files suddenly stopped working when I […]

What an AWESOME surprise! #evergratefulevertrue #inspirerocks pic.twitter.com/JdOhfcjzRT — Jennifer Johnson (@BoilerJohnson) May 22, 2015

Hello folks, I am pretty certain that I already know the answer but… I have a question that requires more than one fill in the blank. However, Lectora treats each fill in the blank as a separate question. As a result, the Lectora generated test summary labels each as a separate question number. This is […]

Hello everyone I have a problem with Lectora Inspire. I want to create a scorm. I know that I enter a variable or a test to complete the course because it can be Set as completerd Within the Learning Management System “ The problem is: “This course is missing a test or scored in the […]

Hi, As the developer, I would like to be able to control notifications so that my client/SMEs are not sent notifications when I don’t want them to be sent.  At present, their notifications default to on and they are inudated with email notifications (even after I close the course draft for comments!!!) , and while they […]

In Lectora, I created a course with 10 AU. When I publish to SumTotal LMS using the Lectora Plugin the AU are properly recognized and displayed in the sidebar TOC – I modified the player acting on the manifest. However, wheren I reach the end of the AU, I do not know how to navigate […]

When I import lectora slides from another lectora project (Copy Pages or chapters from another lectora project) then I can’t able to preview as well as publish my course. They show me error message. Please see below snap for same. [ATTACH=CONFIG]635[/ATTACH] How to tackle with this error?

Ben – that won’t address their bookmarking issues.If you’re going to use IFRAMES to wrap the content, you’ll have to have Lectora (the parent wrapper) communicate with the IFrame window – back and forth.If you want tracking functionality in addition to simply presenting “linked” content, and you only want to use one lectora page to […]

Have you ever wished that you could use ReviewLink to host courses published from some of the other tools in your eLearning development toolbox? Well, your wish is about to come true. Coming soon, ReviewLink will allow you to upload Captivate® and Storyline® courses in addition to publishing Lectora titles for review. As a member […]

Using Lectora Inspire 11.3.2 I am unable to do a couple things. 1) Set a default font. It appears that in the course it is set to Calibri 24 – which isn’t really a problem because in most cases you can use the text style command on the Home ribbon. Except – When you create […]

Am I totally missing something but does Lectora Online have a spell check function??????

When selecting multiple images in a RCD view it would be great if we can scale alltogether visually on the view. Like it is now with a single image.

Hi, We are having some problems with Lectora 12 courses on CSOD. It’s taking us 5 minutes or more to load courses on the LMS. These are relatively small courses, less than 50 Mbs. It takes several minutes for courses to close on the LMS. The courses are published as SCORM 2004. Any help is […]

Hi, here again to ask for some help. I don’t know if this should be posted here or in the LMS section but here it is. My Lectora title will not mark as completed in the LMS, it stays “in progress”. I’m publishing to Cornerstone LMS in scorm 1.2 with an AICC_Lesson_Status set as completed […]

Bruce,Thanks for your help. This looks like a viable solution except that this client won’t let me publish to ASP. Their site is very restrictive. But I think this might work elsewhere.For this situation, I ended up adding a line of code to the trivantis-cookie script to look for a cookie expire variable. Then I […]

Not really. Others have asked for this. Suggest you put it under suggestions.It is a little difficult to know just what to print as there could be many hidden objects on a page. Which do you print?Now, one thing you can do is to turn on File menu > Preferences > Visibility check boxes. Then […]

Hi there! Thanks again for being patient with all of my simple questions. I’m making an invisible button to go under a piece of text. I set it up and it looks “right” – the way all of my visible buttons look (with an action set, clicked to Always on Top, etc), but when I […]

A while ago in Lectora Inspire 11 i had a project where images needed to slightly overlap the edges of the pages. L11 didnot have the option of positioning images overlapping the edges, so the designers couldnot set it up like that. I wrote a Javascript that tweened an image to be positioned slightly off, […]

Hello All, I am a new user to Lectora… I am creating an assessment of 50 questions pulling from a pool of 100 for a New Hire program. I would like to guarantee 10 Billing questions 10 Troubleshooting questions etc for each test. Is there a way to create 5 different questions pools that 1 […]

Well that post confirmed what I thought.  To use the LMS progress meter you need to set up a multiple SCO course. Pretty easy with Lectora. Just add more assignable units at the Title Level. I don’t have a log in to view that other article.

Hello, Can i have 2 versions of lectora in 1 PC? Not sure how it works, my current version can be updated to V11 but i need to have Vx.6 on my PC. Is there a way around? Adriana

Hey folks,  just updated to Lectora v16.1 and I noticed that in the areas where I have an image embedded in a text block, the image no longer appears when previewing or publishing.  The text will display, just no longer the image with it.   It did worked in Lectora 16.0.2, so it must be impacted by […]

Vasilis, I’m guessing you pulled your post before anyone answered.  If you use a web window instead of an HTML extension for the wordsearch  it works fine. I think putting an iframe in a div is what is causing the problem. The content is trying to be styled before it is loaded and throws an […]

Ben,There is a way to change the window’s location in the current version. You could have the popup window close using the trick mentioned in this post: Pages as pop ups. Then have a second action set with a short delay to open the page again within a window and specify the new position.

Is there a way to export incorrect results to an excel sheet or some database to track incorrect responses to ensure all objective types have been met?

Hello D80man. For the second question, in Captivate, go to Project > Preferences (may vary according to your version of Captivate), then in the section Project End options, choose the Action “Execute Javascript” and type in the box, trivNextPage() For the first question, were you thinking of having a button that would trigger the appearance/hide […]

How can I change certain words to boldface in one dynamic text text block?

I’ve opened a New Title and based it on a Template from My Templates. Now when I try and Save the Title, the Save icon is not available. I can Save it as a Template but that’s not really what I want. thanks

Hello, my first post to this community. I have a problem with mp4 video in Lectora, it am unable to reliably replay a clip once it has reached the end. When it reaches the end of the video and one clicks to replay, a static image pops up, and then the video is paused forever more and none […]

Hi everyone, I have checked the forums prior to posting and have not been able to find an answer for this one. I currently have Lectora 11 and have setup a test at the end of the course. The client has requested that we provide feedback based on the number of correct answers. So basically, […]

An alternative to Comment Catcher is to use a Form Entry field.  Put this at the course level as initially not visible.  Include a button that the Learner can click to display the notes field whenever they like.  At the end of the course, give the Learner the option to print their notes.  (Put the […]

True automatically generated hyperlinked breadcrumbs requires dynamically generating HTML which is very very difficult in Lectora. Alternatives: 1. You can use a series of text boxes (which unfortunately are fixed length) with actions attached to them that Go To Web Address and and enter Var(variable) in the web address field. You can set the variables using […]
