Add or remove hot object distractors

To change the default number of six distractors (choices), add more distractors or delete existing distractors. A Hot Object learning interaction can contain up to eight hot object distractors.

Add a hot object distractor

  1. Create a movie clip symbol containing the graphics for the hot object distractor. For example, to add a seventh choice to an interaction that has six types of fruit, create a graphic of the seventh fruit and place it in the library.
  2. Select the Hot Object component on the Stage, and then drag the symbol from the Library panel to the Stage.
  3. In the Property inspector, name the instance.
  4. Add the instance name to the Component inspector for the hot object.

    The component does the rest of the work automatically at runtime.

Remove a hot object distractor

  1. Select the Hot Object movie clip instance to remove, and delete it from the Stage.
  2. Select the Hot Object component (to the left of the Stage in the quiz template) and the Component inspector by opening it from the Property inspector.
  3. Remove the deleted object’s instance name from the list in the Component inspector.
