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!

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

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 […]

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 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 […]

I would LOVE it if you could prioritize feedback in ReviewLink. Or even better, if you could categorize feedback (preferably with your own labels) into things like: text edits, image edits, swf edits, functionality, etc. Then you’d be able to better prioritize and/or organize your work. Would make things so much more efficient.

Hello, We are publishing a course in Lectora X.2 with 23 pages and 19 randomized questions in assessment. The course is hosted on SuccessFactors B1207. The course works fine till end and the moment client hits submit, it throws an error LMSSetvalue not implemented. I gone through forum here and found that special characters could […]

Kevin E. and Ben P., thanks for the great suggestions! I think I’m getting the hang of it, now. Ben, I’ll surely look into that seminar you suggested, too. It’s wonderful to be able to get such good response and so quickly, too, on this message board. JJS said:I’ve created some text boxes that I […]

I have created a title that has multiple questions that use the radio button response for the users. True/False multiple choice. These work fine in all browsers except Google Chrome. The buttons show up fine, you just cant select them. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance

I’ve created a series of courses with no issues, except for one question where a question has odd characters in the choices. For example, “+2.00 -0.50 x 010 < > 2 ∆ base down “ No matter what I’ve tried, I can not get the final test results to show this answer as correct. Actually, […]

Background: Working with Lectora 9. Our LMS times out if 30 minutes pass with no communication from the sco. Lectora SCORM packages commit data only once, upon exiting the content. Our users take longer than 30 minutes to complete content. Breaking up our courses to decrease duration is not an option. We are trying to […]

The Run Action Group action allows you to bundle a group of actions together within one group, and then launch all of the actions within the group with one action. The actions within the group then run through sequentially until they have all been run. So far, the only way that I’ve found to stop […]

Thanks for the idea. This “check answer” button is in Flash. I have to initiated from Flash instead of Lectora where you can use Flash Command. Maybe I should put it outside of Flash, but I would still like to know how to pass a variable from Flash using Flash instead of using Lectora (which […]

I’ve tried implementing a simple transition on some pages and we’re getting complaints that the page freezes. It happened to me couple times. I got it to work by refreshing the page but we have people shutting down the browser to restart. It’s simple thing to make things look a little nicer. Does anyone else […]

Excuse me if this has been addressed in the forums but I didn’t see it. I am very new to Lectora and I am wondering if there is a way to move a single item (image, text block, etc.) in a group on the page without moving the entire group? Or do I have to […]

I’ve got a question regarding new features in Lectora: Whos knows when it is planned that Lectora supports responsive design? Who knows something about that and if there is any date available? Thank you for your help!

Since it is Christmas Eve, I thought I would share my wish list for Lectora. I imagine these have been shared before and it is possible that some of these exist in Lectora but I just haven’t come across them yet. Anyway, here goes… Style sheets containing paragraph settings to embed line spacing and space […]

One option is to use the “Submit test to CGI program” on the Results tab of the test properties. There is some information in Lectora Help as to how to do this. You can also check this out. eMail Script – Linux, Unix, PHP

I have test questions scattered throughout a course. How do I require that the question be answered before moving on to the next slide?

We created a couple of courses and are testing them in our LMS, which is SCORM 1.2 Conformant. Within the courses, we have seperate pass and fail pages. On the pass page, there’s a Completion Action (i.e., Modify Variable AICC_Lesson_Status = completed IF AICC_Score is Greater than or Equal to 80). We noticed the following […]

Is anyone else having issues with getting mp4 videos to open in the Video Editor?  When I go to file, open, nothing else happens.  It used to work in the past.  I’ve tried various video files and none of them work. Any suggestions or work arounds? Thanks!

Thanks for your replies. “Are you running these from an LMS? If not, you are in for problems. IE only supports a 4K cookie. With 25 modules, sounds like you might exceed that limit and the later courses would push out data from earlier ones. Also, if variables have the same name, there is the […]
