[Xerte] Tools.xml file fault?

[Tenney Julian]

No, because the <item label="Folder...> contains it's child nodes.
You're not closing that first tag anywhere now.

	It does now I modified it from:
	 
	<item label="Folder" icon= "icTools">
	<item label="Command" data= "cmd.swf" icon="icOptions"/>
	</item>
	<item type = "separator"/>
	<item label="Find" data= "find.swf"/>
	<item type = "separator"/>
	<item label="Colour Scheme" data= "colour.swf"/>
	
	to
	 
	<item label="Folder" icon= "icTools">
	<item label="Command" data= "cmd.swf" icon="icOptions"/>
	<item type = "separator"/>
	<item label="Find" data= "find.swf"/>
	<item type = "separator"/>
	<item label="Colour Scheme" data= "colour.swf"/>
	 
	There seems to be an extra 
	</item>  tag in there

	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

			The only two that should be there are colour

				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,
