How to use "Text box tool"
 
Hi Everybody... Yesterday I wanted to create my first online exercise... But I had a little problem...

As in the example "days of the week" I wanted to do an �unscrambled words" exercise. But I couldn�t insert a text box. Each time I tried I got this error message :  Error inserting object in current location.

I think I�m doing someting wrong.. but what?

Thank you for your help

P.S: I don�t want to insert the text box between the words but after the word...

Ex:    meraca  : ............................. (camera)

Hi , Delphine 05

That is very easy.
1-Place the cursor where you want the "textbox" placed.
2-Click on the "textbox" icon on the tools bar.
3-A new window opens with an input textbox.
4-Type the correct answer in this textbox (NB: It is case sensitive "capital letters"). If there are more than one possible answer type them all separated by "/" and no spacing.
5-Click "Add".
 
You are done.
 
The "textbox" dimension is adjustable in length
 
Hope it could help
Cheers

Hi!

Thank you for your answer :))

My problem was elsewhere... it�s incredible .... the problem comes from the fact that the online exercise tool doesn�t work with MOZILLA FIREFOX... I used Windows Explorer ... and everything is OK now

Thanks :)
