Here's all you need to do:

  1. Simply insert the Drag and Drop Lite Question Widget into your Captivate 4 or 5 project to generate a new question slide.  If using Captivate 4, be sure to go into Preferences and set your ActionScript version to ActionScript 3.
  2. Add images, captions, rollover captions, animations, and highlight boxes to create the graphic elements you want to include in your question.  (Drawn shapes such as polygons are not supported. You also cannot add interactive objects such as clickboxes and buttons to a quiz question slide.)
  3. Give all of the objects an appropriate unique Item Name in the Properties > Item name field.
  4. In the Widget Properties > Objects tab, add drag objects and target objects by name. 
  5. On the Widget Properties > Correct Answer tab, drag the named objects from the top level onto their relative target objects on the bottom level.  Scroll left and right if necessary to find drag objects or target objects.
  6. On the Widget Properties > Preferences tab, configure how you want the widget to work.
  7. Publish your movie to test your drag and drop question.

And that's all there is to it.
