[Xerte] Re: New Templates - videos in navigators? coloured subpages?

[Julian Tenney]

Is the solution to add video to the navigators, or is the solution to have some other means of sequencing video?

Adding it to the navigators is a bit of a pain but developing alternative means for grouping / displaying videos can be done.

Multiple perspectives page already provides one way: I'm sure we could contrive several ways of displaying and playing from a number of videos.

Can we look at the problem from a 'what are you trying to achieve' point of view ?


With the transparent sub pages, are you talking about just the navigators, or anywhere there's a white panel?

If there's a chance (I have no idea how simple or complex this request might be), having the option to add video into Navigator sub pages would be wondrous...

And having the option to make sub pages transparent so they could inherit user colour changes would also be great.

Not got a slot myself at Alt this year, but helping with some stuff with the Vet School.

We talked before about doing a quarterly update, and managing that as a kind of release cycle: wishlist, development, testing, release, new wishlist, etc, so this is to start that going, and start a new cycle from now till Christmas.
