[Xerte] Tools.xml file fault?

[Tenney Julian]

Mark,
 
The xml looks fine to me, and it when I click the tools menu, I get the
right items on it, and they run when I select them. Does that not happen
for you?

	Yes, I saw those in the folder, but they were not showing on the
menu until I edited the XML slightly.  I am on a different machine now,
but I think there was an extra closing tag in there by accident?

	I am interested in developing more, but I feel I need to get my
head around the basics first ;-)

	Cheers

	Mark

		The only two that should be there are colour scheme and
the find command. Are you intereseted in developing more?

			It looks like there is a fault in the tools.xml
file that comes with Xerte?  I don't see all the commands that come with
Xerte on the menu by default.  Editing the XML file makes them
available.

			You're evaluating a whole expression inside the
{}'s. It's not like Authorware where you can have multiple {}'s inside
your display icons. In this case the expression creates the whole
string.
			 
			Another way to set text is to do
iconID.setText(myText);

				Morning all, 

				 

				Does anybody know how to how to use a
variable in a text icon without it being on it's own independent line?

				 

				ie.

				 

				Helllo

				{myVar}

				Goodbye

				 

				Works Fine....

				 

				Hello {myVar} Goodbye 

				 

				Displays exactly as shown above.....

				 

				Thanks in advance,
