On page three, when selecting hotspots, the page resets it's scroll position - a bug?

Hi Inge
just replying here because I was reminded of the OU branding earlier today and thought about your question about a totally white theme...

When does a Xerte LO not look like a Xerte LO? http://www.open.ac.uk/libraryservices/beingdigital/objects/20/index.htm#<http://www.open.ac.uk/libraryservices/beingdigital/objects/20/index.htm>

What totally white so they can't see it! Hidden LO's - discovery learning....? ;-)

Actually I think what we need is an optional property on the learning object like we have for the bootstrap template to add styles directly in the LO which then apply throughout. At the moment doing this on a page give flexibility to only affect that page and uploading a custom stylesheet is overkills when a small change is required. Likewise the optional property could allow additional javascript to be written for the whole LO rather than individual pages.

So as an example the Flat Blue theme is easily changed to what you decsibe Inge with a tiny bit of css - see page 7 http://mitchellmedia.co.uk/xot/play_168#resume=7

You can also change the shape e.g. http://mitchellmedia.co.uk/xot/play_168?&display=600,800#resume=7

Will add this to Trello for further discussion.

Me too!! The themes I mean :)
Was wondering of we can create a totally white theme for users that want to embed it in their learning environment without borders. What do you think?

I'm happy with that too: I think the apereo logo in the spanner will

lose detail at smaller sizes. I did wonder whether the text could be

I agree with Inge, I prefer the 3rd one... less fussy and apereo might

be academic focussed but xerte has a mix of adopters...

Hi,



For me and Katrien me I think it will be a barrier because our target

groups are very different from academic.My preference is that we

choose the last two. I also like the last two visually more that the

first one. If I have to choose one then my preference is the third one

because it's more 'calmer'.

Don't know if that's the right word :)

Inge

It might be their tag but I quite like the re-enforcement of a focus

I like bothbut I think the 'Serving the academic mission' looks a bit

cramped in the second version. What does that look like written under

both

versions?

e.g.



Version one reads

Xerte

an apereo community project

Serving the academic mission



and version 2 reads

Apereo

Xerte

Serving the academic mission

This is an alternative approach: it's a bit easier to cope with

because we can use a font for the apereo text (Myriad), rather than

work off the graphics files Ian sent through.

We really need to develop a number of icons / logos for different

really...
