It works a treat and only requires the addition of one line to each page's xwd and no change to the page model. (This was implemented to support the new context menu "Page Link" option, but it also really simplifies the Connector pages as they no longer need to handle any navigation button settings for destination pages)<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:216.0pt'>4.<span style='font-size:7.0pt'> </span>Use of pageList controls for selection of links in Connector pages (see the new way to set up a list of pages for the menu connector.<o:p></o:p></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'>Have a play with the navigation options to see what you think.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'>There are a few minor issues that need resolving though<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'>a) It appears that the historic back button is currently broken as no navigation takes place when it is clicked<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'>b) Despite looking in the flash code and inspecting the rootIcon I cannot find the identifier for the mask that is persisting to display a blue circle when you use the historic back button.

I think this is a real game changer which necessitated the introduction of the "Navigation Buttons" attribute mentioned above. I recommend that as a result of this ability to create links in any page type (in XOT if not in Xerte) that we also retire from XOT the Redirector Connector (keep it Xerte only) as it is redundant now and retire the Tabbed Navigator Connector as it pretty much does what the Tabbed Navigator page does but with links that can now be added using the pageLink context menu item.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'>I agreed with Julian to prototype the Connector page changes prior to committing anything to the svn. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'>Julian if you are happy with the prototype I will now do the following<o:p></o:p></p></div></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'>i) Update the rlt code in the svn to handle the historic navigation attribute and the setting of navigation button options<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'>ii) Add the extra line to every xwd file in the svn that will provide the optional "Navigation Buttons" parameter.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'>iii) Modify the rlm and xwd files of each of the following connector pages in the svn to use pageList controls and "Navigation Buttons" settings <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'>( In order to enable the current Connector pages to use pageList controls and still work with Xerte I will create two xwd files e.g. connectorMenu.xwd and connectorMenu_XOT.xwd. The _XOT one will be used for building templates.xwd. Currently this poses a minor problem since all .xwd files must have an identically named .rlm file to be included in the templates.xwd file created by Tom's script. Tom is going to implement a test to check for a modelFile="" attribute (e.g. modelFile="connectorMenu") in the xwd file that can be used to over-ride the file name. )<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:216.0pt'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Symbol'>·</span><span style='font-size:7.0pt'> </span>Menu Connector<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:216.0pt'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Symbol'>·</span><span style='font-size:7.0pt'> </span>HotspotImageConnector<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:216.0pt'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Symbol'>·</span><span style='font-size:7.0pt'> </span>MCC Connector<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:216.0pt'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Symbol'>·</span><span style='font-size:7.0pt'> </span>Scenario Connector<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'>iv) Flag the following connectors as excluded from XOT<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:216.0pt'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Symbol'>·</span><span style='font-size:7.0pt'> </span>Tabbed Navigator Connector<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:216.0pt'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Symbol'>·</span><span style='font-size:7.0pt'> </span>Redirector Connector<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:216.0pt'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Symbol'>·</span><span style='font-size:7.0pt'> </span>Plain Text Connector<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'>Kind regards<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'>Johnathan<o:p></o:p></p></div></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></p></div></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:180.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></p></div></div></div></div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:144.0pt'> <o:p></o:p></p><p style='margin-left:144.0pt'>This message and any attachment are intended solely for the addressee and may contain confidential information.
