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!

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’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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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.

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 […]

Yea… the user id’s are all handled through a custom designed administration application. More like a simplified asp thing…I’ll noodle it around my brain and try to come up with an idea.Joe

It sounds like it is an issue with the SumTotal Plugin. If you publish normally to SCORM 2004, or 1.2,  items 2, and 3 are not a problem. (Just make sure you enter in the description when publishing, and make sure the AU properties are set for the correct mastery score) I know that with […]

Arnold,We used to see issues like this years ago, and it usually had to do with the fact that we had single apostrophes (‘) or quotes (“) in our test questions and/or answer text. We had to go and change text to remove them (i.e changing “don’t” to “do not” and “student’s test” to “the […]

Do I need to have a sophisticated system in order to run Snap! by Lectora? I have an old business computer with Windows 2003.

Just a quick note to Trivantis and anyone using Lectora who needs to produce Section 508-compliant eLearning. It sure seems to me like Trivantis has forgotten about Section 508 again. Sure, years ago, they touted that Section 508 was a key feature and selling point for their software, and it was – they worked a […]

For some reason the space between the bullets and the beginning of the text following a bullet is vary wide. I cannot find where to adjust this excessive space. When I publish the eBook and launch it from our LMS the space is so large as to be distracting and wrap text in an unfavorable […]

It would be awesome to be able to have more options for formatting text within buttons. For example, I’d love to manually force a line return sometimes to improve the display of the text. I’ve attached an example of what I’m not liking. The top button looks great. The bottom one has a long top […]

Hi! I have two questions: 1) We’re having some problems with getting our course to work in the Google Chrome browser.

Hello,  how can I attach an action to javascript in Lectora? For example I would like a user to click on each step in accordion before showing next img or button. Or when they check out a carousel to have an img popping out for each step. Help…:)  

I would like to see the ability to use motion paths for animation, similar to that in used in Articulate Storyline 2.

There have been some postings about this topic, but I haven’t seen any recent post. Maybe there are some new interventions! I’m currently using a Moss 2007 SharePoint team site to conduct “end of training” surveys, using the SharePoint survey feature, which doesn’t provide the level of test analysis I need. I’ve created 6 tests […]
