We have added scripting support for the features introduced in v8 and we have also added support for constant expressions in Flash.
OpusScript support for Features in v8
| GetQuestionValue() | Allows you to get the user’s score for a particular Question. This would be the "8" in "8 out of 10" for an individual question. Obviously this only has a value once the user has answered the question. |
| GetQuestionPossible() | Allows you to get the total possible score for a Question. This would be the "10" in "8 out of 10" |
| GetQuestionCorrect() | A boolean (true/false) variable which tells you whether the user answered the question correctly. |
| GetQuestionIncorrect() | A boolean (true/false) variable which tells you whether the user answered the question incorrectly. |
| ConfirmQuestion() | A script version of the Confirm Question action which allows you to submit answers using a script command. |
| ResetQuestion() | A script version of the Reset Question action which allows you to reset all the elements and scoring of a question so that it can be retaken. |
| SetUserAnswer(n) | A script version of the Set User Answer action which allows you to select answers using a script command. Useful for questions where the success has been evaluated in a script or for using the Question scoring structures in simulations and more complex training. The parameter n indicates the index of the answer the user has chosen or is awarded – eg.: myQuestion1.SetUserAnswer(2) |
| ResetUserAnswer(n) | A script version of the Reset User Answer action which allows you to reset a previously selected answer using a script command. The parameter n indicates the index of the answer the user has chosen or is awarded – eg.: myQuestion1.SetUserAnswer(2) |
