1 Initial Problem
In specific scenarios test questions need to be displayed for a fixed/limited amount of time. When the time runs out, the test needs to navigate to the next question and lock the answer for the previous question.
2 Conceptual Summary
A new optional subsetting Limit Duration of Question Display is introduced under:
- TEST / Settings / Participant Answers / Lock Answers with the Presentation of Follow-Up Questions
- TEST / Settings / Participant Answers / Lock Answers with the Presentation of Feedback or Follow-Up Questions
A seperate countdown timer per question is added the testplayer quesion GUI.
The option to set a fixed time to display for each question is added under:
- TEST / Questions / List View (fixed number of questions only!)
The option to set one (1) fixed time to display for ALL questions is added under:
- TEST / Questions / Configuration (random selection of questions only!)
