Editing for Try It and Do It Modes

Posted by: Marilyn Pacheco in UPK on Print PDF

 Bubble Properties

When editing UPK content, keep in mind the different playback modes.  Depending on the modes being published, you must edit bubble properties to display appropriate instructions in each mode. 

In Do It mode, text needs to be specific to the step, but general enough for a person to be able to follow the instructions and complete the task using their specific, real data. 

When users select a gender from a drop down list or LOV, they may choose from one or more options.  In Try It mode, users might select the "Male" value to complete the simulation, but in real-life (using Do It mode), they may not select "Male", so we instruct users to select the appropriate gender instead.

Template or Standard Text
Sample See It / Try It Text
Sample Do It Text
Sample Know It Text

Select the Male list item.

In this example,

Select the Male list item.

Select the appropriate gender from the list.

Click the appropriate selection to indicate that this employee is a Male.

Next time, I'll cover Know It mode, in the meantime, Happy UPK'ing!

Hi Marilyn,

I am a new UPK creator. I am curious if there is a way to allow the user to enter any text in the Know It? mode. I'm fairly certain that the user must enter the text as instructed, but I wanted to verify.

Thank you,
Nicole

Good question, Nicole! You can add input text options that will allow a good deal of flexibility. Please refer to "Input Text Options" in the Content Development reference document that comes with the UPK software.
