EDITING
A QUESTION SET

Question 0 - Question 0 is not actually
part of the question set but is used to enter the summary information
seen on the initial TestMaster screen. If the first optional answer is
checked then the order of all questions in the set will be randomised
when the test is run, if unchecked the question order will be as entered.
If a 320 x 50 graphic is provided as an exhibit it will be used as the
logo above the summary information in the initial TestMaster screen, and
in the run test window.
NOTE: If a logo is provided, the colour of the bar in the run test
screen is set to that of the top left pixel of the logo, for continuity.
Starting at the right hand side of the screen:
- Add - adds a question to the set. Puts the system
in edit mode (only Save/Cancel buttons enabled)
- Delete - deletes displayed question, subject to confirmation.
NOTE: Question 0 (summary) cannot be deleted
- Save - saves current changes in the question set,
and restores View mode
- Cancel - cancel any changes to this question, and
puts display in View mode
- Answers: Single / Multiple - Selects the number of
permitted responses (Single displays radio buttons as the options, multiple
displays check boxes).
- Navigation buttons - First : Next : Previous : Last.
Allows the user to move through the question set.
- Find - used to search for a phrase within the question
set. A dialogue box is displayed where the search text can be entered
and the First/Next occurrence searched for. This dialogue box and the
edit window can be used at the same time.
- Module: Protected - selecting this option will prevent anyone
with a different registration code from the author from editing the
question set
- Close - stop editing, and return to the main TestMaster
screen.
At the left of the screen:
- Question #N - the question being asked
- Possible answers:
- Randomise - if this check box is ticked then the order
of the answers will be randomised. If not ticked then the order
of the answers will be as entered (useful for those scenario question
answers)
- Optional answer text is entered in the boxes provided (maximum
of eight options)
- The buttons to the left of each answer select the correct answer(s)
- Add Exhibit - a graphic may be included for each
question. It should be in BMP format and placed in the Tests sub-directory.
Pressing the exhibit button provides a list of all the BMP graphics
available. If one is chosen a small representation of it will be shown
in the edit window. If a question has an associated exhibit then the
Add Exhibit button will be replaced by three buttons:
- Show exhibit - displays the graphic full size
in its own window
- Delete exhibit - removes the reference to the
exhibit
- Change exhibit - displays the list of available
graphics for another image to be selected
- Reference / Comment - (optional) this is the text
shown with the answer when the 'Answer' button is pressed or
when incorrect questions are reviewed. The text should explain the answer
and any relevant reference(s).
