<div>Before the internationalisation actions were taken there was some inconsistency between the different models. Some models had text that was displayed to the user in the model for the page e.g. a "feedback" label for a button. Other pages provided for some author access by including text for buttons in the xwd form. Typically these latter pages, as I recall, tended not to have many entries in their xwd forms.<br>
</div><div><br></div><div>When I converted the pages for internationalisation I removed all language text from the models and made it accessible from the xwd form. The availability of a language check box came part way through that process, as a result of some pages e.g. the quiz page, having a lot of new elements to the form, which resulted in the form being significantly larger than the display space, requiring significant scrolling of the form in order to see all the fields.</div>
<div><br></div><div>So the current situation is one in which there are some pages, like the hangman page that were modified for internationalisation prior to the availability of the language check box. The forms for these pages tends to still fit within the available display space with no need to scroll the form to see all the fields in the form.</div>
<div><br></div><div>For perfect consistency fields in forms, which have values that are likely to remain the same for every page in which that page type is used (that is button labels, button widths, text such as "Question" "of" etc.) perhaps should be flagged in the xwd form with the language attribute so that they only display when the language option check box is ticked. However this does not compromise the functioning of the form.
</div><div><br></div><div>I did not revisit every form once the language check box became available as the forms did not require scrolling. At the time I was more focussed on dealing with the changing requirements of the Connector pages - removal of separate language sections in the xwds, adding features to the Hotspot Image Connector etc.</div>
<div><br></div><div>The "advanced" option was not a feature I used in any of the forms. I think the feature will prove useful, but the changes I was making at the time all fell under the heading of "language".</div>
