I assume bleedingImage could work just as the normal graphics page does, so my code can say if(normalGraphics || bleedingImage) loadThisView(); RSS can be added as a member of a learning space, in which case it would probably just include news, possible links to other sites which will open in the phones browser. If you add a folder RSS feed from toolkits, the app should handle that differently, and let you drill straight down into the learning objects and then the pages.

In testing I managed to create a shared space but then removed some initial tests and checked the shared xml and that still contains the original url's is the shared space static or does re-sharing the same space update it? How is the RSS supposed to work? I've added a feed which includes a load of LO's and I tested sharing the xml with a couple of them. All the lo's in the feed show in the list but it seems to want to try to run the swf rather than the xml. Does it look for the xml first and if it can't find it resort to the swf? Yes I think two versions without and without air would be good - obviously with a recommendation to only try the full version via wifi rather than 3G. When I can find time I plan to test further and will report back. Would be useful to know how the rss works as that seems the easiest and quickest way to share LO's.

Is there a way you can include the adobe air app within the app? I've rooted my HTC Hero to install Froyo and tried various versions of Adobe Air but unsuccessfully. I've also tried via the Android SDK on my Windows laptop and various OS/Device profiles but also without success. Is there a specific requirements list e.g. Android version, Adobe Air version, Device compatibility? Any progress with the iOS version? I'd be happy to test and provide feedback and ideas as well as cascading to others but can't really justify purchasing yet another device to test with especially as I wouldn't really be able to test it works until after purchase.

In testing I managed to create a shared space but then removed some initial tests and checked the shared xml and that still contains the original url's is the shared space static or does re-sharing the same space update it? How is the RSS supposed to work? I've added a feed which includes a load of LO's and I tested sharing the xml with a couple of them. All the lo's in the feed show in the list but it seems to want to try to run the swf rather than the xml. Does it look for the xml first and if it can't find it resort to the swf? Yes I think two versions without and without air would be good - obviously with a recommendation to only try the full version via wifi rather than 3G. When I can find time I plan to test further and will report back. Would be useful to know how the rss works as that seems the easiest and quickest way to share LO's.

Also, should we have two versions? I think so, because the runtime dependent one is MUCH smaller (1.7MB vs. 24MB) although I suspect for many users making the install as easy as possible would be advantageous. However, 1.7 MB is manageable on 3G, 24MB is asking a bit much...

I updated my SDKs to Flex 4.5.1 and Air 3.0 recently. My phone has updated itself to Air 3.0.0.408. The specs for Air 3.0 seem the same or similar? http://www.adobe.com/products/air/tech-specs.html Air 3.0 has something called captive runtime support. What that means is, yes, you can package up apps as a single file that includes the air runtime. I've just discovered that there is a new Flex 4.6 SDK out. Hang on. (gotta say, keeping up with Flex is a nightmare). When I've updated everything I'll build you a one file app to try.

Is there a way you can include the adobe air app within the app? I've rooted my HTC Hero to install Froyo and tried various versions of Adobe Air but unsuccessfully. I've also tried via the Android SDK on my Windows laptop and various OS/Device profiles but also without success. Is there a specific requirements list e.g. Android version, Adobe Air version, Device compatibility? Any progress with the iOS version? I'd be happy to test and provide feedback and ideas as well as cascading to others but can't really justify purchasing yet another device to test with especially as I wouldn't really be able to test it works until after purchase.

I've just packed it up again for you, and could do with a small group of people to test / feedback etc. http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/xerte/downloads/application.apk I could also do with some sample learning spaces for demos etc. It also now supports 10 page types from toolkits: text, bullets, textGraphics, imageViewer, textVideo and all the navigators, so you can produced structured content and include text, graphics, sound and video. I think that goes a long way to start with... You can now publish a learning space from the phone for other users to subscribe to. This is a beta feature: it writes xml to our web server - this may change. So you can, using just the phone, create a learning space, populate it with content, and publish it: I think this is potentially the game changer. Please try creating some spaces, publishing them, post the QR codes here so others can attempt to subscribe etc, and let me know comments, Julian From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Harding, Julie Sent: 30 November 2011 11:44 To: 'Xerte discussion list' Subject: [Xerte] Re: Android App v0.0002 Hello Not heard anything on the android app for a while.

If someone moves the buttons to the bottom of the screen then it would be useful to be able to increase the height of the status bar to accommodate the height of the buttons. I tried the following in a script of the Entry Frame debug("rootIcon.statusBarHeight = " + rootIcon.statusBarHeight); // returns 20 rootIcon.statusBarHeight = 40; debug("rootIcon.statusBarHeight = " + rootIcon.statusBarHeight); // returns 40 but the displayed height of the status bar does not change.

So many thanks to Tom and Jose and anyone else who I might have missed who has contributed to this. I have almost completed translating into English Jose's excellent tutorial. I notice that there is a slight discrepancy in that the example changes about 8 optional properties of the project but only one is mentioned in the tutorial, so the results achieved by following the tutorial would not match the displayed image. I have been testing the available colour properties to establish what might have been changed and am finding a few properties that don't appear to be doing much. I wanted to add a description of the optional colour properties and their effects to the english translation. Can anyone with more experience of moding the xerte interface comment on the following observations and perhaps correct any errors or oversights on my part. *********** The following colour properties are available and were tested in Xerte preview. titleBarColour: Changes the title bar at the top of the page. StatusBarColour: Changes the bar below the title bar and the bar at the bottom of the screen. FillColour: changes page background and colour behind volume control defaultColour: not sure (changed the arrows on the table of contents) buttonFillColour: changes the background to all the buttons on the interface. ButtonTextColour: changes the border on the top buttons and their text in the status bar glossaryColour: no observed effect but project did not have a glossary. LabelColour: no observed effect inputColour: no observed effect pageTitleColour : no observed effect statusColour: Changes the continue arrows and continue label at bottom right of screen. TitleColour: Changes colour of project and page title and table of contents title. StageColour: No visible effect (may be significant if visuals are turned off?) *********** Once completed the translation will be available in open office and pdf format. I will look to posting it to the wiki at some point. Thanks in advance for your help.

I've just packed it up again for you, and could do with a small group of people to test / feedback etc. http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/xerte/downloads/application.apk I could also do with some sample learning spaces for demos etc. It also now supports 10 page types from toolkits: text, bullets, textGraphics, imageViewer, textVideo and all the navigators, so you can produced structured content and include text, graphics, sound and video. I think that goes a long way to start with... You can now publish a learning space from the phone for other users to subscribe to. This is a beta feature: it writes xml to our web server - this may change. So you can, using just the phone, create a learning space, populate it with content, and publish it: I think this is potentially the game changer. Please try creating some spaces, publishing them, post the QR codes here so others can attempt to subscribe etc, and let me know comments, Julian From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Harding, Julie Sent: 30 November 2011 11:44 To: 'Xerte discussion list' Subject: [Xerte] Re: Android App v0.0002 Hello Not heard anything on the android app for a while.

Comments and ideas really welcomed at this early stage... Screenshots The home screen shows your learning spaces. A learning space is a collection of learning resources. The buttons allow you to add a space, delete a space, and sort by name, created date or number of views. Ultimate idea is to allow users to share their learning spaces (somehow) [cid:image011.png at 01CCB03F.A6225D80] Here's a learning space, showing most of the supported things so far: [cid:image012.png at 01CCB03F.A6225D80] You can add content by scanning QR codes (can't screenshot that). A toolkits folder with one learning object (now, when you add content I check out what sort of xml I get back, so those problems should have gone...) [cid:image013.png at 01CCB03F.A6225D80] And LO content in the few supported pages types so far... [cid:image014.png at 01CCB03F.A6225D80] An RSS feed: [cid:image015.png at 01CCB03F.A6225D80] A youtube video (use the direct embed link, eventually I'll sniff this out and make it easier) in the form http://www.youtube.com/embed/qmvA-OMysmM [cid:image016.png at 01CCB03F.A6225D80] An FLV file - mp4 should work as well... [cid:image017.png at 01CCB03F.A6225D80] And a sound file (with albeit pretty crude controls so far) [cid:image018.png at 01CCB03F.A6225D80] and you can add pretty much any web content as the phone will open anything it doesn't recognise in the phones browser via a WebView object: [cid:image019.png at 01CCB03F.A6225D80] So that includes playing the LOs directly on the play_ url if the device can cope with it....

I can now move the buttons and the masks (and the button background), I can also redraw the Title Bar, Title Banner and Status Bar. I have hit the following issue. If I want to reduce the height of the title bar I can set the height to a lower value and then draw it, but the original title bar is still displayed beneath it. The only way I can find to erase the original Title Bar is to set visuals to 0 and then start to build my interface from scratch. I can then draw a new title bar, title banner and status bar, but cannot get the buttons to re-appear. so 1. Is there a way to erase any of the bars without setting visuals to 0, so that a smaller new bar can be displayed without the original bar being visible as well? 2. If visuals are set to 0 is there a way of re-appearing or repainting the original Xerte buttons and combo boxes? I will document all this on the wiki once I have things sorted out :-) Kind regards Johnathan On 1 December 2011 13:36, Julian Tenney wrote: > It's a bit of pain.

I see a 'Flash Paper' icon in toolkits...but hasn't flash paper been more or less deprecated? Any other efficient way to display documents? Can anyone tell me what is the highest version of a swf file that I can run in xerte desktop or toolkits? If I compile one in CS5 it's not going to run, correct? I'm wondering what is the optimum version of Flash to be compiling swfs to run in xerte.I have Flash 2004 MX Pro. Thanks!

I am still working things out :-) I have been examining the output of inspect(rootIcon); and also the script in engine.fla to try to establish what methods are available and what parameters they take. Pat's recent comment about a Wizard also raises possibilities which if implemented would change the process for modifying the Xerte display. Once I can get my head around everything (well at least enough to make a sensible post) I will publish the results so that they will be available and you can add them to your blog. I think following Pat's comment and some of the discussions I have been reading from earlier in the year regarding the use of style sheets I need to start a new discussion topic in the developers mail list so we can talk about how best to move this forward.

I am still working things out :-) I have been examining the output of inspect(rootIcon); and also the script in engine.fla to try to establish what methods are available and what parameters they take. Pat's recent comment about a Wizard also raises possibilities which if implemented would change the process for modifying the Xerte display. Once I can get my head around everything (well at least enough to make a sensible post) I will publish the results so that they will be available and you can add them to your blog. I think following Pat's comment and some of the discussions I have been reading from earlier in the year regarding the use of style sheets I need to start a new discussion topic in the developers mail list so we can talk about how best to move this forward.

I have an xwd based form that collects the url value as "FileLocation + 'media/bannerTest1.png'" In my script I have tried rootIcon.loadIcon(templateData.learningObject[0].projDisplay[0].logoUrl); which fails, even though debug( templateData.learningObject[0].projDisplay[0].logoUrl ); outputs FileLocation + 'media/bannerTest1.png' I have tried tests such as fred = "media/bannerTest1.png"; rootIcon.loadIcon(FileLocation + "'" + fred + "'"); and fred = "'media/bannerTest1.png'"; rootIcon.loadIcon(FileLocation + fred); In an attempt to figure out what hoops I will have to go through to get it to work, but the only way I can get the image to display is if I hard code it into the script. i.e. rootIcon.loadIcon(FileLocation + 'media/bannerTest1.png'); works. I cannot get the image to display when the path is passed in a variable. I don't know if the issue is something to do with FileLocation converting to a path with back slashes whilst the media/bannerTest1.png has a forward slash, but this hasn't stopped the method call working when I hard code the file name.

The problem is that config.php is probably being loaded twice somehow. The file you need to look for is called 'database_library.php'.

I have an xwd based form that collects the url value as "FileLocation + 'media/bannerTest1.png'" In my script I have tried rootIcon.loadIcon(templateData.learningObject[0].projDisplay[0].logoUrl); which fails, even though debug( templateData.learningObject[0].projDisplay[0].logoUrl ); outputs FileLocation + 'media/bannerTest1.png' I have tried tests such as fred = "media/bannerTest1.png"; rootIcon.loadIcon(FileLocation + "'" + fred + "'"); and fred = "'media/bannerTest1.png'"; rootIcon.loadIcon(FileLocation + fred); In an attempt to figure out what hoops I will have to go through to get it to work, but the only way I can get the image to display is if I hard code it into the script. i.e. rootIcon.loadIcon(FileLocation + 'media/bannerTest1.png'); works. I cannot get the image to display when the path is passed in a variable. I don't know if the issue is something to do with FileLocation converting to a path with back slashes whilst the media/bannerTest1.png has a forward slash, but this hasn't stopped the method call working when I hard code the file name.

I just installed XOT 1.8 (from branch) and when I try to use "switch.txt" as "index.php"? a white screen of dead appears. However, when I use the "switch.txt" from XOT 1.8 (branch) over XOT SVN it works well. Even, I tried using "switch.txt" from XOT 1.8 (branch) over XOT 1.7 and worked well too. Am I wrong if the conclusion is that the "switch.txt" file included in the .zip file offered through the webpage is wrong? A lot of people is downloading the xerteonlinetoolkits.zip file from "http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/xerte/community.htm" and many of them are not able to use LDAP services. So they try to use the "demo.txt" or "switch.txt". Thanks a lot for the help. Jos?. ? -- Lic. Jos? Gregorio D?az Unda. Asesor de Tecnolog?as de Informaci?n y Comunicaci?n.

(AIR Version) I have also created a small area and perimeter recap type object for maths which is in the RSS folder I have previously emailed. Is there a way I can get the question to work or are you not looking to be that advanced yet? If not I will make a copy of it and remove the single questions and perhaps add something else? Just not sure what? Anyone any ideas? It looks good on my mobile though I have to say. These are really exciting developments so thank you Julie PS the RSS feed for the folder didn't work so loaded my objects separately with the XML link as suggested. They work ok. ____________________________ Julie Harding Resource Based Learning Manager The Oldham College [Description: \\oldham.ac.uk\netlogon\bin\phone.gif]0161 785 4106 [Description: \\oldham.ac.uk\netlogon\bin\mail.gif]julie.harding at oldham.ac.uk [Description: \\oldham.ac.uk\netlogon\bin\website.gif]www.oldhambusinesscentre.co.uk [Description: \\oldham.ac.uk\netlogon\bin\toc_email_icon.gif] [Description: \\oldham.ac.uk\netlogon\bin\facebook.gif] [Description: \\oldham.ac.uk\netlogon\bin\twitter.gif] P Do you need to print this email?.

I need to work out a list of the page types that are actually feasible, i.e. will work on Android and iOS, which discounts a lot that use Flash based media. So far it is: Text Bullets TextGraphics (+optional sound) ImageViewer (which uses the same view as textGraphics to simply show the image) TextVideo All the navigators So you can basically get all the different types of media up there now, but not any interactivity yet. Send me the RSS folder link and I'll try it.

(AIR Version) I have also created a small area and perimeter recap type object for maths which is in the RSS folder I have previously emailed. Is there a way I can get the question to work or are you not looking to be that advanced yet? If not I will make a copy of it and remove the single questions and perhaps add something else? Just not sure what? Anyone any ideas? It looks good on my mobile though I have to say. These are really exciting developments so thank you Julie PS the RSS feed for the folder didn't work so loaded my objects separately with the XML link as suggested.

I have uninstalled the version I loaded last week and added the first link in this email - the AIR version. Your content loads and works fine - mobile test and copy of mobile test. The images load and text etc for yours but for some reason cannot get mine to work properly. I typed in the RSS feed and the actual Xerte preview screen opened as opposed to the mobile layout list. I then typed the XML sharing link for the object and that loaded fine but the text loads quickly and then disappears?? The images stays on screen though? I have been asked to create a simple object for a maths subject - area and perimeter and would like to add a simple 1 question page. Will that work?

Fay Cross from the University of Nottingham has now created a table template for Xerte online toolkits. Here's a quick example: http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/toolkits/play_6331 It will display basic tables and gives you a range of ways to present them. You can either enter the table data manually in the wizard or upload a CSV file. If you currently do not have your own institution's installation of Xerte toolkits you can play with the table template on the JISC Techdis sandpit at www.techdisplayxerte.info. If you already have your own institutional installation of toolkits then you can get your technical team to add the table template by getting them to follow the instructions below; If your technical team have any further questions please encourage them to put them onto the Xerte technical list or search the archives. Both can be found at http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/xerte/community.htm. So here are the instructions. Don't expect me to answer questions on them, I am merely passing them on to you as I would to my own technical support guru! The attached files need to be placed in the following locations... table.rlm goes in the folder modules\xerte\parent_templates\Nottingham\models data.xwd replaces the existing file at modules\xerte\parent_templates\Nottingham wizard.swf replaces the file at modules\xerte\engine It might be worth people backing up their old version of the data.xwd and wizard.swf files before they replace them in case of any problems.

If you look at the previous browser settings then there is one thing that is included now that wasn't on IE8. We've tried setting this both on and off and it makes no difference.

Fay Cross from the University of Nottingham has now created a table template for Xerte online toolkits. Here's a quick example: http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/toolkits/play_6331 It will display basic tables and gives you a range of ways to present them. You can either enter the table data manually in the wizard or upload a CSV file. If you currently do not have your own institution's installation of Xerte toolkits you can play with the table template on the JISC Techdis sandpit at www.techdisplayxerte.info. If you already have your own institutional installation of toolkits then you can get your technical team to add the table template by getting them to follow the instructions below; If your technical team have any further questions please encourage them to put them onto the Xerte technical list or search the archives. Both can be found at http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/xerte/community.htm. So here are the instructions. Don't expect me to answer questions on them, I am merely passing them on to you as I would to my own technical support guru! The attached files need to be placed in the following locations... table.rlm goes in the folder modules\xerte\parent_templates\Nottingham\models data.xwd replaces the existing file at modules\xerte\parent_templates\Nottingham wizard.swf replaces the file at modules\xerte\engine It might be worth people backing up their old version of the data.xwd and wizard.swf files before they replace them in case of any problems. Obviously, as with any free and open source tools, all tinkering is at your own risk and for your own rewards!

Fay Cross from the University of Nottingham has now created a table template for Xerte online toolkits. Here's a quick example: http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/toolkits/play_6331 It will display basic tables and gives you a range of ways to present them. You can either enter the table data manually in the wizard or upload a CSV file. If you currently do not have your own institution's installation of Xerte toolkits you can play with the table template on the JISC Techdis sandpit at www.techdisplayxerte.info. If you already have your own institutional installation of toolkits then you can get your technical team to add the table template by getting them to follow the instructions below; If your technical team have any further questions please encourage them to put them onto the Xerte technical list or search the archives. Both can be found at http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/xerte/community.htm. So here are the instructions. Don't expect me to answer questions on them, I am merely passing them on to you as I would to my own technical support guru! The attached files need to be placed in the following locations... table.rlm goes in the folder modules\xerte\parent_templates\Nottingham\models data.xwd replaces the existing file at modules\xerte\parent_templates\Nottingham wizard.swf replaces the file at modules\xerte\engine It might be worth people backing up their old version of the data.xwd and wizard.swf files before they replace them in case of any problems. Obviously, as with any free and open source tools, all tinkering is at your own risk and for your own rewards!

The first page has a text icon which has a width set to 550, the second page has a component icon. Above the decision icon is a script. In the script a path variable is set to 1 if subsuper is true and 0 otherwise. Since the decision icon branch property is set to calculate, the decision icon will display the page indexed by the path property i.e. the page with text if path is 0 and the page with the component if path is set to 1. If you have added and checked the Superscript Support optional property then the text will be displayed in the swf called by the component and any textWidth setting will be ignored. If you have not checked the text width property then the Decision icon will display the page with the Text Icon In your getPageID script there should be the following block of code if (pageIcon.templateData.text[0].textWidth != undefined){ // icon.nextSibling.attributes.w = pageIcon.templateData.text[0].textWidth; // added to directly set the width of the text display icon.nextSibling.firstChild.firstChild.attributes.w = pageIcon.templateData.text[0].textWidth; } The commented out line that starts //icon.nextSibling is the original line that used to set the width of the text icon but this was compromised by the addition to the script of the Decision icon to accommodate handling Superscript by use of a swf. The following line was added to provide the correct relative path to the text icon in its new position inside the decision, to set its text width. icon.nextSibling.firstChild.firstChild.attributes.w = pageIcon.templateData.text[0].textWidth; If your model file lacks this line (I believe it is included in Xerte 2.17) then the textWidth property will fail to get its width set correctly. Whist the xwd file displays text values to the user e.g. Small, Medium, Large, Full the data returned by the xwd is a number 300,450,600,760. So in a nutshell, the xwd returns a number and the line icon.nextSibling.firstChild etc. sets the width value of the text icon. But this will be irrelevant if you check the Support Superscript box, or if your model file lacks the correction to the relative path to the textIcon. I hope this sorts it out for you.

After creating a Xerte Zip export and downloading it to my local machine, I realised that the file size was larger than expected. When I unzipped the file I saw that a couple of video clips - each about 5MB in size were still within the zip even though they are no longer used in the LO. They had been used but I subsequently deleted the pages where I deployed them. I deleted the two video files from the zip folder and then rezipped the rest.

I have a LO on the Techdis sandpit, which has been edited and some new images have been added to it. My query is when I download the zipped file and unzip, in the media folder are the files which have been used along with the old ones, as these are no longer required is it ok to delete them or are they still referred to by Xerte? My second question is, when I zip up the above file and try to upload again to the sand pit I get this message and it looks like the object has been imported but when I go to preview or edit I just get a blank page?

If you don't enter a name then it calls the file 'imported project' or maybe 'imported template' The excess messages sounds like an old file somewhere, but if some one checks the php they will see if those messages are in there. They look like old debug statements. Am not sure what nothing appears in preview means. If you import a template then it's security status is private so it cannot be played. If it doesn't appear in your workspace then scroll to the bottom as it may appear at the end If after editing it and clicking on play in the editor it doesn't work that sounds like a file has corrupted somewhere.

Hi - I'm using the 'slide-show' navigator page (XOT) and having a problem with the less than/greater than characters (<>). I've tried the "<" entity (which works on a plain text page) and, various other escape methods, but it just keeps treating it as code and not displaying any text after that point in the text panel.

This screenshot shows how the page should look with the video loaded correctly (XerteVideoNoError.png): [cid:194FA22B-CC7B-4D6D-A22B-AF7B5760D6E9] This screenshot shows the error (XerteVideoError.png): [cid:967E4E23-5DD1-42A3-8B41-799C63C8932E] As you can see the video fails to load and those three graphics appear instead. However, if you navigate through to the next page, then return to the video page, the video will load. Also, this does not happen every time in IE 8. I've not seen this error in other browsers. The video is a short introduction, a few minutes at most. Has anybody seen this bug, or similar, before? Are there any solutions/workarounds?

Intermittent issues are tricky. The video is known to load in Xerte when the metadataReceived event fires. In this case it appears to be firing before the metadata has loaded for some reason. Can you try running the video file through the metadata injector flvmdi.exe, or use the gui flvmdigui.exe: http://www.buraks.com/flvmdi/ From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Richards B A (LCSS) Sent: 13 December 2011 11:47 To: xerte at lists.nottingham.ac.uk Subject: [Xerte] Video problem in IE8 with .flv Hi, I've got an intermittent error with .flv files not loading in Xerte in IE 8. This screenshot shows how the page should look with the video loaded correctly (XerteVideoNoError.png): [cid:image001.png at 01CCB98D.A6415AD0] This screenshot shows the error (XerteVideoError.png): [cid:image002.png at 01CCB98D.A6415AD0] As you can see the video fails to load and those three graphics appear instead. However, if you navigate through to the next page, then return to the video page, the video will load. Also, this does not happen every time in IE 8. I've not seen this error in other browsers. The video is a short introduction, a few minutes at most. Has anybody seen this bug, or similar, before? Are there any solutions/workarounds?

However, if you navigate through to the next page, then return to the video page, the video will load. Also, this does not happen every time in IE 8. I've not seen this error in other browsers. The video is a short introduction, a few minutes at most. Has anybody seen this bug, or similar, before? Are there any solutions/workarounds?

However, if you navigate through to the next page, then return to the video page, the video will load. Also, this does not happen every time in IE 8. I've not seen this error in other browsers. The video is a short introduction, a few minutes at most. Has anybody seen this bug, or similar, before? Are there any solutions/workarounds?

So you could create icons in the script, append them to the page, and then let the parser handle them as usual. Or you could load rlm xml from somewhere else and do whatever it did.

The problem is that the Voice commands "Press Tab" , "Press Shift Tab","Press Enter", "Press Space Bar" fire the key board keys and allow you to navigate Xerte, but it is very painful to get to where you want to go if you simply want to advance a slide or bring up the table of contents. "Press Tab","Press Tab","Press Tab","Press Tab" etc If you have the high end professional version of dragon you can say "Press Tab 6" or you can program mouse position commands, assuming you load xerte into the same window size every time, and say "Next Slide" which will locate the mouse and click it. However the target audience for the courses are novice dragon users with a typical low end version of Dragon so this is not really an option. You can also use "Mouse Grid 5,2,3 Mouse click" to position the mouse and click it, but again you have to be an experienced user to be able to do this. A few XOT inbuilt shot cut keys say "Press Control T" etc that advance the slide no matter where you are would help novice user with XOT. Others eg: go to first Tab Item on the slide would also make a big difference. Understand that there may be possible conflicts with windows mac etc pre defined short cut keys but the question is can this and should this be done easily in XOT to assist disability users who use speech recognition.( including built in Win7 speech recognition) Peter Snowball Dept Of Infrastructure, Energy and Resources Tasmania -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The problem is that the Voice commands "Press Tab" , "Press Shift Tab","Press Enter", "Press Space Bar" fire the key board keys and allow you to navigate Xerte, but it is very painful to get to where you want to go if you simply want to advance a slide or bring up the table of contents. "Press Tab","Press Tab","Press Tab","Press Tab" etc If you have the high end professional version of dragon you can say "Press Tab 6" or you can program mouse position commands, assuming you load xerte into the same window size every time, and say "Next Slide" which will locate the mouse and click it. However the target audience for the courses are novice dragon users with a typical low end version of Dragon so this is not really an option. You can also use "Mouse Grid 5,2,3 Mouse click" to position the mouse and click it, but again you have to be an experienced user to be able to do this.

So then I tried some existing LO's which certainly haven't exhibited this problem before and now do. So I wondered if recent updates have introduced this. However... Then I tested with an offline LO created in 2009 and obviously using an earlier youtube.rlm without any toggle full screen and auto play code - result exactly the same problem! So it seems like there's been a change at the YouTube end causing this? Try your existing LO's do they do the same? - I bet they do! Ron BTW here's an example with the toggle full screen and auto play set http://xerte5.techdis.palepurple.co.uk/play_10983 -----Original Message----- From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Ron Mitchell Sent: 15 December 2011 18:19 To: 'Xerte discussion list' Subject: [Xerte] Re: FW: Problem with YouTube video embeds in XOT- video size out of proportion Hi Julian that's been in there for ages so I doubt that's what's causing this problem. I'm on a train as we speak so can't check the links in this thread but will try to check later or tomorrow. The toggle full screen and also toggle autoplay sets the clip to play full screen automatically and also auto play automatically. I seem to recall part of the code for that to work is in Nottingham.rlt e.g. where you have the fuction to view full screen when the magnifying glass is clicked?

The problem with it not resizing as it should seems to be with i) either the onLoad event isn't getting broadcast to the xerte code that does the resizing; or ii) timing, cos there is some setInterval stuff in the wrapper swf which I must have put in there for some reason. The length of the flicker is the setInterval delay: I can make it 0, but wonder why I put it in there in the first place - there must be a reason to hold off on broadcasting the event.

They were working OK until recently when the sizing of the videos has gone out of proportion. I have been using the old embed code which was working OK before.

Up until today everything was fine - when you hit the movie page the movie was in the small preview window..however for some reason the video is now opened full screen and in the wrong location (as below). Same in both IE and Firefox, although it worked properly last week. I don't see a way (at least in toolkits) to force the size of the movie. Anyone know why this would suddenly happen?

Has anyone noticed the oddity on the current Nottingham play_560 example where TTS on the navigation controls announces "Page n of n"? There's also a tendency for tabbing to escape the learning object back to the browser navigation but then be unable to return to the browser. Neither of these are issues with our 2 TechDis installations which is a puzzle. I'd be interested if others find the same on their current installs.

The problem is that the Voice commands "Press Tab" , "Press Shift Tab","Press Enter", "Press Space Bar" fire the key board keys and allow you to navigate Xerte, but it is very painful to get to where you want to go if you simply want to advance a slide or bring up the table of contents.

However the target audience for the courses are novice dragon users with a typical low end version of Dragon so this is not really an option. You can also use "Mouse Grid 5,2,3 Mouse click" to position the mouse and click it, but again you have to be an experienced user to be able to do this. A few XOT inbuilt shot cut keys say "Press Control T" etc that advance the slide no matter where you are would help novice user with XOT. Others eg: go to first Tab Item on the slide would also make a big difference.

A few XOT inbuilt shot cut keys say "Press Control T" etc that advance the slide no matter where you are would help novice user with XOT.

The problem is that the Voice commands "Press Tab" , "Press Shift Tab","Press Enter", "Press Space Bar" fire the key board keys and allow you to navigate Xerte, but it is very painful to get to where you want to go if you simply want to advance a slide or bring up the table of contents.

When I enter a youtube movie page the movie is oversized like in the image below to the left. I want it to display in the preview window as the image below on the right. I'd appreciate it if someone could try these links below and tell me if the youtube movie (usually page 7) displays properly in the small preview window or opens right off the page as in the image below left. On all my machines here it is right off the page. http://www.kccsoft.com/RGM/ssv51training/index.htm (desktop version) https://kccsoft.com/u2c/tk100714/play.php?template_id=410 (toolkits 1.5 version) This just started a few days ago, up until then the page opened with the movie in the preview window. I'm using the youtube older 'object' 'embed' code. I've tried setting the xerte display mode from 'full screen' and 'full window' to 'default', set text alignment to 'right' and tried removing the variables off the end of the youtube URL, all to no effect. If you play with the 'magnify' icon (click it three times) the movie will resize back into the preview window, but that's too much to ask a user to do. Is there a way I can initialize the movie size when the page loads or somehow force the size (although it is set in the youtube embed code).

This is preliminary, I have no final fix (I am not at home, and have no access to all I need) If you have a version where you can set the size, it is more or less already fixed. If you are using an older model, you need to update the model, or change the component. This is (probably) caused by the fact that the default video size that youtube sends has been changed from 320x240 to something larger. SetSize is never called after initialisation, and Xerte assumes that the size should be 320x240. If you use one of the newer model where you can set the size, this works. As far as I can tell you need to set the correct size in the onPlayerLoad event handler script. See the toggle event handler for an example.

This is preliminary, I have no final fix (I am not at home, and have no access to all I need) If you have a version where you can set the size, it is more or less already fixed. If you are using an older model, you need to update the model, or change the component. This is (probably) caused by the fact that the default video size that youtube sends has been changed from 320x240 to something larger. SetSize is never called after initialisation, and Xerte assumes that the size should be 320x240. If you use one of the newer model where you can set the size, this works. As far as I can tell you need to set the correct size in the onPlayerLoad event handler script. See the toggle event handler for an example.

The problem is that the Voice commands "Press Tab" , "Press Shift Tab","Press Enter", "Press Space Bar" fire the key board keys and allow you to navigate Xerte, but it is very painful to get to where you want to go if you simply want to advance a slide or bring up the table of contents. "Press Tab","Press Tab","Press Tab","Press Tab" etc If you have the high end professional version of dragon you can say "Press Tab 6" or you can program mouse position commands, assuming you load xerte into the same window size every time, and say "Next Slide" which will locate the mouse and click it. However the target audience for the courses are novice dragon users with a typical low end version of Dragon so this is not really an option. You can also use "Mouse Grid 5,2,3 Mouse click" to position the mouse and click it, but again you have to be an experienced user to be able to do this. A few XOT inbuilt shot cut keys say "Press Control T" etc that advance the slide no matter where you are would help novice user with XOT. Others eg: go to first Tab Item on the slide would also make a big difference. Understand that there may be possible conflicts with windows mac etc pre defined short cut keys but the question is can this and should this be done easily in XOT to assist disability users who use speech recognition.( including built in Win7 speech recognition) Peter Snowball Dept Of Infrastructure, Energy and Resources Tasmania This message and any attachment are intended solely for the addressee and may contain confidential information.

The problem is that the Voice commands "Press Tab" , "Press Shift Tab","Press Enter", "Press Space Bar" fire the key board keys and allow you to navigate Xerte, but it is very painful to get to where you want to go if you simply want to advance a slide or bring up the table of contents. "Press Tab","Press Tab","Press Tab","Press Tab" etc If you have the high end professional version of dragon you can say "Press Tab 6" or you can program mouse position commands, assuming you load xerte into the same window size every time, and say "Next Slide" which will locate the mouse and click it. However the target audience for the courses are novice dragon users with a typical low end version of Dragon so this is not really an option. You can also use "Mouse Grid 5,2,3 Mouse click" to position the mouse and click it, but again you have to be an experienced user to be able to do this. A few XOT inbuilt shot cut keys say "Press Control T" etc that advance the slide no matter where you are would help novice user with XOT. Others eg: go to first Tab Item on the slide would also make a big difference. Understand that there may be possible conflicts with windows mac etc pre defined short cut keys but the question is can this and should this be done easily in XOT to assist disability users who use speech recognition.( including built in Win7 speech recognition) Peter Snowball Dept Of Infrastructure, Energy and Resources Tasmania This message and any attachment are intended solely for the addressee and may contain confidential information.

URL: From johnathan.kemp at ntlworld.com Wed Dec 21 12:44:48 2011 From: johnathan.kemp at ntlworld.com (Kemp Johnathan) Date: Wed, 21 Dec 2011 12:44:48 +0000 Subject: [Xerte] Re: Change Flash container size In-Reply-To: References: <7C15D295-69D7-49FA-9AC5-26B7EA547842@socius.be> Message-ID: Many of the page templates are designed to the standard Xerte page size so benefit little from an increase in the project stage size. Many object dimensions (panels, text icons etc.) have either a preset width and height or are set to one of several preset dimensions from which the author may chose (though none intended for a larger display size than the standard Xerte project size). If you are using the Xerte 2 Desktop then you are probably using the pageTemplates project template in which case you could edit the individual page .rlm files ( in the models folder ) to adjust their dimensions. To produce templates that accommodate any width and height you need to set things up relative to the available display space. You can identify the available height using the following expression pageHeight = rootIcon.h - (rootIcon.statusBarHeight + rootIcon.titleBarHeight + rootIcon.titleBannerHeight); the pageWidth is easier pageWidth = rootIcon.w; It is perfectly possible to work this way. The scenario template I am currently working on automatically adjusts to the stage size as all dimensions of the display components used have dimensions set relative to the available height and width. "Out of the box" desktop Xerte does not currently make it easy to work with the desktop editor and still have access to pre-defined individual page templates when you want them. You can import a model file from a Page Templates based project, but you would then have to edit the references to the data obtained from the template.xml file. Page Wizards were developed to provide individual page templates for use in the desktop environment but they are not currently available from the Xerte Wiki. Once the work on modularisation is complete it will be possible to open individual page templates that have their own wizard form in the desktop environment. Effectively the way of working provided by Page Wizards will become part of the desktop release. This may provide you with an environment in which it is easy to work with and modify the existing model files to accommodate your desired stage size.

I had assumed the RLO uses the _youtube.rlm file at runtime, but making the change there didn't have any effect. When I inserted the snippet below into the RLO it works. If I rename the subdirectory which contains _youtube.rlm (which sits in a dir one level below the RLO) the RLO doesn't run properly - so it needs something out of that directory. This area is a bit confusing to me - the page wizard appears to import all the code into the RLO, but the subdirectory which holds _youtube.rlm and the xml/xwd files are obviously needed as well.

I think it is all a matter of properly addressing the nodes, which I'm obviously not doing. Everything is fine in my desktop xerte app. The program navigates from a flash menu to any of a number of frameworks with entrypanes which includes a 'Next' and 'Previous' button to take the user through the FW pages. Once at the end of the pages in the FW it goes back to the main menu (shows the menu as visible). This is the structure for this: Next Page script code: (works fine) if(fw.currentPage < fw.pages.length - 1) { fw.nextPage(); dummy = 'Part '+ part + ' - Module ' + module + ' - Page '+(fw.currentPage+1) + ' of ' + fw.pageCount + ' - '+partname; showcurrentpage.setText(dummy); } else { _level0.engine.rootIcon.navigate('menu'); } Problem: I inserted Flash swf buttons (tutorialnavbuttons icon below) - and am attempting to use similar navigation code as above inside the swf button file. This breaks the navigation - I believe the 'fw.currentpage' etc. is no longer recognized..but I don't know how to have the SWF file recognize the framework that I am in, and 'currentpage', etc. How should I address those nodes in the SWF file? SWF file code on the 'Next' button: (it now always flows through the 'else' statement and goes to the menu - is there a way I can make it recognize the 'fw.currentpage' etc? NextButton.onRelease = function() { if(fw.currentPage < fw.pages.length - 1) //THIS STATEMENT IS NO LONGER WORKING { fw.nextPage(); dummy = 'Part '+ part + ' - Module ' + module + ' - Page '+(fw.currentPage+1) + ' of ' + fw.pageCount + ' - '+partname; showcurrentpage.setText(dummy); } else { _level0.engine.rootIcon.navigate('menu'); } } Thanks for any suggestions!

Check out the Xerte help files. I don't think that by default an image icon is sensitive to mouse events and thus will not trigger an onRelease event. However you can add a hotObject icon to an interaction and then add an image icon as a child of the hotObject. This will allow mouse events to be detected by the image. I am not sure if the event will be triggered by the hot object or the image. If it is the hot object icon then you may need to use the rs property rather than the id property to identify the hotObject icon when specifying what object sends the event.

That is except for icons that are normally the children of an interaction icon i.e. the sort of icons you see listed when you right click on an interaction icon in desktop Xerte e.g. button, hotspot etc. These use the rs property to identify themselves and not the id property.

Check out the Xerte help files. I don't think that by default an image icon is sensitive to mouse events and thus will not trigger an onRelease event. However you can add a hotObject icon to an interaction and then add an image icon as a child of the hotObject. This will allow mouse events to be detected by the image. I am not sure if the event will be triggered by the hot object or the image. If it is the hot object icon then you may need to use the rs property rather than the id property to identify the hotObject icon when specifying what object sends the event.

But all in all a tidier solution than the one I offered. Nice one.

The HotObject icon's rs property must be set to the same value as the Image icon's id property. The click property is set to 1 if you want the event to trigger on clicking or 0 if you want to trigger the event on mouse over. Hope this solves your problem Kind regards Johnathan On 30 December 2011 11:26, pippo pluto wrote: Hello JohnathanI tried your suggestion but does not work.Maybe I'm wrong but I do not know where is the error...I'll try again.. Kind regardsMatteo Da: Kemp Johnathan A: Xerte discussion list Inviato: Gioved? 29 Dicembre 2011 23:40 Oggetto: [Xerte] Re: download file pdf The ID is used as the unique identifier of an icon, so once you set the icon property of an icon you can refer directly to it by using its ID. That is except for icons that are normally the children of an interaction icon i.e. the sort of icons you see listed when you right click on an interaction icon in desktop Xerte e.g. button, hotspot etc. These use the rs property to identify themselves and not the id property. Julian will know the why's and wherefore's of this. You can read about it in the "interactions overview" section of the Xerte help file.

Check out the Xerte help files. I don't think that by default an image icon is sensitive to mouse events and thus will not trigger an onRelease event. However you can add a hotObject icon to an interaction and then add an image icon as a child of the hotObject. This will allow mouse events to be detected by the image. I am not sure if the event will be triggered by the hot object or the image. If it is the hot object icon then you may need to use the rs property rather than the id property to identify the hotObject icon when specifying what object sends the event.
