All the Connector pages plus the Inventory Page offer some support to the learning object author. Originally this was set for each page individually by having an attribute in the xwd file for each page. However at Julian's request this was moved to a single attribute of the learning object xwd form "Add Author Support" which set a value for the authorSupport attribute.</p>
</div><div><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:108.0pt"> </p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:108.0pt">If authorSupport was set to "true" then all Connector pages and Inventory pages in the project will display their authorSupport information.</p>
</div><div><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:108.0pt"> </p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:108.0pt">If authorSupport is set to "true" and an individual page's optional property "Output Check List" is selected then depending on the value selected for this option a report will be output to the clipboard. Reference to "Developer Mode" in this option list is a left over from the earlier individual page setting. It should now read "Author Support only". I will fix that.</p>

Only a couple of the comments are proper bugs, the rest are more aesthetic comments to make them more consistent with other pages. It’s not really for me to say if they need changing or not! It was a quick test of these pages so you’ll see if some places I couldn’t work out what things were meant to do – I haven’t time to do these pages very thoroughly.</p>
