Hello, Docebo Community! 😊

I am inquiring to see if uploaded images in a test can be clickable by the learner in the LMS as part of the test-taking process. 

For example, to answer a question, they would click on an image with various fields, such as name, address, date of birth, etc., and select the field on the image as their answer to the question.  

I would appreciate any responses that would help confirm whether this functionality exists. 

Thank you,

Marla Beaulieu

Hi Marla. I have been looking for a solution also. 
 

The workaround I currently use is to make the image open at full size in a new browser tab:

  1. Insert the image into the test question normally and save the question.
  2. Open the question’s source code and copy the image URL from the src field.
  3. Wrap the image in a link using the same URL for both href and src:
<p><strong>Click the image to enlarge.</strong></p>

<p>
  <a href="PASTE_IMAGE_URL_HERE" target="_blank" rel="noopener">
    <img src="PASTE_IMAGE_URL_HERE"
         alt="ECG rhythm strip"
         style="max-width:100%; height:auto;">
  </a>
</p>

The learner can then click the image to view the full-size version in a separate tab and return to the test tab to answer the question.

This works, but copying the URL and editing the source code for every question is cumbersome. I am planning an ECG rhythm-recognition assessment with several detailed images, so I am still hoping someone has found a simpler or more maintainable way to provide click-to-enlarge functionality in Docebo tests.
