On Ready

Scope

• Book Page content object > Quiz item object > Actions > On Ready property

Purpose

This property is used to specify the action(s) that should be performed when the user has finished answering a question - but has not yet 'submitted' it (by clicking on the control that triggers the Check action for the question object). This is useful for hiding the 'submit' control until the user has attempted to answer the question.

Use

When activated, this property presents a text box with just an Add link available in it. Clicking on this link inserts a two-column table row above this link. The link can be used to add further actions to be performed when the object is clicked. All actions are performed at exactly the same time, when the parent object is clicked on. If you want to stagger their execution, trigger a Time Control and specify the individual actions and their timing in that.

For details of the contents of the 'action table' and how to define actions, refer to Defining actions.
