Preventing copying, pasting and right click within BB 9.1 Tests and Surveys

In CE8 we could add a script to quizzes to ensure stduents couldn't copy, print or right click. Is there anything similar for Blackboard 9.1.

Hi, all, I have an instructor who experienced an unusual problem. Though we have worked out a solution, the problem has me perplexed and I wondered if anyone else has experienced this situation and if this is a known bug.

Using Chrome, cannot access "Reuse Question" option when creating/editing a test
