B2009 - How do I show the right answer inside the text entry field? by - Joseph Ganci First, advice you can
throw away: I find that taking the student's answer away to replace it with
the correct one sometimes will make students declare - "Hey, wait a minute!
That was my answer!" In other words, it's a good idea to keep the student's
answer up and show them the correct answer underneath so that they can compare. Having said that, there's
a couple of things you can do. Your approach of setting EntryText := "rightanswer"
is correct but you've used the wrong variable. It should be PresetEntry :=
"rightanswer". However, this will only work if you use a Try Again response
so it probably won't work for you. No, the way I'd do
this is to erase the student's response (or let Authorware's automatic erase
take effect), then show the correct answer in the same location. Smoke and
mirrors, my friend. |
