Initialization Option Items API

focus_on_player

Sets the browser focus to the start button element on the intro page when the assessment player has loaded. This functionality is enabled by default.

You would want to set this option to false to disable the automatic focus change when the assessment player has loaded.

Examples

// Disable automatic focus when the assessment has loaded
var initializationOptions = {
    "config": {
        "configuration": {
            "focus_on_player": false
        }
    }
};

Values

Request object key config.configuration.focus_on_player

Default: true

Type boolean

Possible values:
  • true

    Sets the browser focus to the start button element when the assessment player has loaded. When there is no intro page, the focus will go to the first Item of the assessment.

  • false

    Disable the automatic focus change when the assessment player has loaded.

Caveats

When the show_intro initialization option is set to false, the focus will move to the first Item of the assessment.

By default, this initialization option is set to true and will override the scroll_to_test initialization option.
