Is there an archetypical feedback box used elsewhere?
Might as well maintain look/feel.

    categories.rlm

    nottingham.rlt

    data.xwd would be the three i would start with - but i would suspect
    the rlm is where most of the work will be, and just a text entry in
    the xwd

        I was going to take a peek but don't want to reinvent the wheel.

        Message body

          Ah, I see the problem now - feedback box covering up original
          page. Ummm, I think that just a bit more room would suffice -
          though can't provide dimensions. In using this page I would
          assume users just need the following scripting option:

          Check your answers against the recommended answers given
          below:

               Category 1: Item 2, Item 5 etc etc
          ..........................

               Category 2: Item 1, Item 3, etc  etc
          .......................

               Category 3: Item 4, Item 6, Item 7, etc
          ......................

          So, just enough room for revealing four lines of feedback

          It's easy enough. You just need a text icon for the feedback,
          the trick is to draw the screen to leave room for it, so the
          columns need to stop some distance below the bottom of the
          screen to leave room for the feedback. That's probably based
          on 514 - x so it will be easy to put in your own x to make
          them shorter. This is probably why I didn't do it: how much
          room do you need? You can't put the feedback in a panel over
          the interaction, because it is important the learner can see
          both at the same time. You don't want too much space,otherwise
          it restricts the number of items the interaction can handle.
          You could measure, and give it the maximum available... more
          complex, as the measuring mght be tricky.

          Add a feedback node to the xwd, with the other basic
          properties. Type TextArea height 50.

          Then when judging, show the feedback trough setText if some
          criteria met.
