Select this option to set a time limit for how long users have to answer the

When you finish, click OK.
The new matching question slide appears in the designated location in the project. If you need
to make any changes, click Edit Question (in the upper-left corner of the slide).
Creating a new rating scale (likert) slide
Select this option to create a statement to which users specify their level of agreement. For
example, a user may be given the statement, “This Adobe Captivate project provided me with
valuable information” and given a range of responses to choose from: disagree, somewhat disagree,
are neutral, somewhat agree, or agree.
Note: Rating scale questions are survey questions and are therefore not graded. You cannot assign a
rating scale question a point value, nor can you creating branching for a right or wrong answer (since it
is a survey question and does not have a right or wrong answer). You can, however, decide what
happens after the user completes the rating scale, such as continuing to the next slide, opening
another project, or displaying a URL.
To create a rating scale (likert) slide:
1.
Open an Adobe Captivate project.
2.
Select the slide before where you want to insert a question slide. For example, if you want the
new question slide to be slide 7 in the project, click slide 6.
3.
From the Insert menu, select Question Slide.
The Question Types dialog box appears.
4.
Select Rating Scale (Likert) and then click Create Survey Question.
5.
Accept the default Name and Description of the question, or type new text directly into the text
boxes. The name and description appear on the slide in the project.
Tip: If you are creating many of the same type of question in a single project, enter unique names
for each so that they can be distinguished from one another easily.
6.
In the Questions area, click Add and type a rating scale question directly into the text box. (You
can add up to eight separate likert questions on a single slide.)
7.
In the Answers area you can accept the default answer text, edit the text, or add new answer
types. To edit the text, double-click on existing text such as “Neutral” and type new text. To
add more answer types, click Add and type new text.
8.
Select the Options tab.
9.
If you would like the Clear, Back, and Skip buttons to appear on the question slide so it is easier
for users to navigate, select these options.
10.
In After survey question, use the pop-up menu to select what happens after the user answers the
questions. You have numerous options:
Continue
Select this option to have the project continue playing.
Go to previous slide
Select this option to have the project return to the previous slide.
