Adding games

Games can only be added to test documents. Once inserted, they wrap the configuration and functionality of the test. Test sections and pages should be inserted, configured and designed like any test. Each page in the test is a question in the game, and can contain any activity or other content. The elements of an activity inserted in a game will, by default, follow the visual and functional aspects of the specific game.

To add a game to your project:

  1. Add a test to the outline of the project, to contain the game.
  2. Add test sections and pages to the test, to meet your needs.
  3. Open the test document created in step 1, and open the game picker, using Interactions > Mind Games > Game Picker.
  4. Select one of the games in the Game Picker dialog, and press OK to add it to the document.

The game inserted is fully functional, using default values for all its different properties. To edit the different elements of the game, read about game layers. To further customize the game, see the Mind Games reference.

The game element will maintain its proportions when resized. It is important to assure that the Document Size in the Run Time Properties is set to follow the same proportions.
