[Xerte] skinning xerte

[Julian Tenney]

You can customise anything you want.

 

All the graphics are created by XMLEngine.swf - change the buttons in
there if you want. You'll have to maintain a different version of the
engine to ours though.

 

Alternatively, make  a custom interface using the template provided in
/templates/frameworkTemplate.fla and load that up using the custom
interface option - this is much easier to maintain. Several others here
have done that and should be able ot provide some insight.

Thanks for answering the css stylesheet situation RE XOT yesterday. 

 

I've been chatting to a colleague today about the possibility of
creating some History Xerte LOs which could form part of a funded
project. It would therefore be important that a consistent style was
used throughout any web resources (inc Xerte LOs).

 

Is it possible to actually change the 'skin' of Xerte content - e.g. the
contents/next buttons - text size drop downs etc? Is this a case of
editing a Flash source file? Is this even allowed?!

 

Has anyone tried this sort of thing before? Any examples?

 

I wouldn't want to do major changes, just jazzing up the buttons etc
would be good.

 

Any info gratefully received,

 

Cheers, A
