The following options are available at the moment: 1. ldap (the default). You could try to install an ldap server and add users to ldap. It is not for the faint hearted. An example of a ldap server is the Active Directory Service of Windows servers. There are several open source solutions as well 2. moodle. With the moodle patch you can use the moodle user management and moodle user database withing Xerte Toolkits. But..., you have to have moodle installed on the same server for this to work. 3. Simple authentication using fixed users in a .php file. There are two files present in the installation directory. demo.txt (doesn't require authentication) and switch.txt (contains 4 fixed users). If you want to use those, you copy them over the existing index.php. If using switch.txt, you have to change the users and passwords in that file. Hope this clarifies things for you.

Saving art as png file often looks better, especially if it is line art. If in doubt, do a screen capture and resize the image to the dimensions Xerte actually shows it, so you'll get a sharper image. I don't tend to use images wider than 600 pixels, unless as a splash screen or watermark, but it depends on where you want your text to appear. Hope this helps a bit. Colleen M.

I?ve not got to the bottom of it, but I did take the youtube component and run some tests on it outside of toolkits, and it worked (at that moment in time), so I know our code is working properly.

I removed all references to the xertetoolkits, database and site directory. I?m not going to use ldap, nor the hard coded index file, but Moodle?s logins. I reinstalled from the zip file, into a directory called ?xerte? in the root of the website F:\My Websites\yes\xerte which translates to http://www.your-english-success.com/xerte/ The database I called ?toolkit? There are no entries in the ldap tables of the database. In the logindetails table, only user is ?admin? I then installed the Moodle patch, got everything in place, and followed the instructions exactly. Being careful to put the correct directory path into the required file. Now, Xerte is under F:\My Websites\yes\xerte And Moodle under F:\My Websites\yes\StudyDesk (the directory is not Moodle, but StudyDesk) All appears to be well up to this point. 1. Open browser ? point to http://www.your-english-success.com/xerte/ and it opens up http://your-english-success.com/studydesk/login/index.php as it should according to the documentation for the patch. I login to (Moodle) my study desk, and it drops me into the main screen like normal. According to the instructions, because Xerte is not in the Moodle directory, but in the root of the site, I need to keep the browser open, and simply type in the Xerte path again, so I do this, http://www.your-english-success.com/xerte/ and I get a blank screen. No error messages, nada. 2. I know it?s doing something, because in config.php I set the debug switch to 1, and it gives me a php error. // Error reporting fix - please set ini_set('error_reporting', 1); and this reports ?Fatal error: Call to undefined function _debug() in F:\My Websites\yes\xerte\website_code\php\database_library.php on line 110? I?ve reset that back to 0, as it provided no insights at all. >From the error_logs files, Admin.log

Thanks Robert From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Tom Reijnders Sent: Tuesday, November 01, 2011 5:27 PM To: Xerte discussion list Subject: [Xerte] Re: Moodle authentication patch gives blank screen Robert, The problems you have with xerte toolkit seem to revolve around user management/user authentication Xerte Toolkits does not provide user management, it relies on other systems to provide user authentication. The following options are available at the moment: 1. ldap (the default). You could try to install an ldap server and add users to ldap. It is not for the faint hearted. An example of a ldap server is the Active Directory Service of Windows servers. There are several open source solutions as well 2. moodle. With the moodle patch you can use the moodle user management and moodle user database withing Xerte Toolkits. But..., you have to have moodle installed on the same server for this to work. 3. Simple authentication using fixed users in a .php file. There are two files present in the installation directory. demo.txt (doesn't require authentication) and switch.txt (contains 4 fixed users). If you want to use those, you copy them over the existing index.php. If using switch.txt, you have to change the users and passwords in that file. Hope this clarifies things for you.

In summary. 1. I can now login to Xerte via my Moodle set up. But I can do nothing else. 2. I can open management.php, and it displays reasonably correctly and the top left logo.jpg shows http://your-english-success.com/xerte/website_code/images/xerteLogo.jpg 3. If I try to login on the management console, it dumps me back to the index.php 4. index.php does not display correctly, ie, the logo is a broken-image icon at http://your-english-success.com/xerte/{{site_logo}} So - I can not now disable .htaccess, unless it's a database setting? Renaming the .htaccess file makes no difference. So it looks like something is getting badly lost in this exercise. I'd love to get this going for teachers, but it's proving to be a mine field. Is there a repository of the _latest_ code somewhere? Given that you say I have an outdated config.php file, there are probably others. Back to the drawing board it seems.

Cheers Robert From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of David Goodwin Sent: Wednesday, November 02, 2011 9:25 AM To: Xerte discussion list Subject: [Xerte] Re: Moodle authentication patch gives blank screen Your version of config.php is out of date. It should contain something like the following : if(!function_exists('_debug')) { function _debug($string) { @file_put_contents('/tmp/debug.log', $string, FILE_APPEND); } } Pasting the above into config.php should fix your problem.... You might wish to change '/tmp/debug.log' to something else - e.g. 'c:\debug.log' if you're on Windows. thanks David. Pale Purple Ltd.

In-Reply-To: <004c01cc9904$702343e0$5069cba0$@com.au> References: <004c01cc9904$702343e0$5069cba0$@com.au> Message-ID: <000001cc9937$28f779e0$7ae66da0$@co.uk> Did you not see/receive my previous response re moodle patch? If you are using the current XOT 1.7 zip download from the Nottingham site there are some changes in that which mean the old moodle patch does not work. In the near future the files required to integrate moodle authentication will be part of the XOT download. For now with your current 1.7 install I would suggest the following: 1. Make sure everything is working in terms of creating and viewing LO's by using demo.php or switch.php (this has been explained previously) 2. Undo the previous moodle patch you've applied but keep a note of the require path you added. 3. Use the 2 files in the attached Moodle patch which is for the current 1.7 only. Read the readme file and add your require path to both files.

I have checked my account and can still access the wiki for editing. I want to create some documentation for the Page Wizards that you wanted to migrate into on-line toolkits. The easiest way for me to do this is to create an Open Office master document that could be posted in the svn so that others could have access to an editable version so that they can translate it. For the wiki Open Office can create a PDF file. I know we discussed the use of PDF files a while back and at the time your IT chaps whilst being willing to allow the download of PDFs preferred not to have to do so. What is the current take on the use of PDF files?

I think there reason for the pdf thing was that he server was getting spammed with pdfs getting uploaded to it, hence Mark turned that off. Now that accounts cannot be created by the spammers, it shouldn't be a problem anymore. In any case, the hard bit is writing the docs... thanks, From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Kemp Johnathan Sent: 02 November 2011 17:02 To: Xerte discussion list Subject: [Xerte] Re: Xerte Wiki I have taken a look at the media wiki instructions but cannot find anything to suggest any form of publishing sequence control other than edit leads directly to public access. I have checked my account and can still access the wiki for editing. I want to create some documentation for the Page Wizards that you wanted to migrate into on-line toolkits. The easiest way for me to do this is to create an Open Office master document that could be posted in the svn so that others could have access to an editable version so that they can translate it. For the wiki Open Office can create a PDF file. I know we discussed the use of PDF files a while back and at the time your IT chaps whilst being willing to allow the download of PDFs preferred not to have to do so. What is the current take on the use of PDF files?

I can see some ?Xerte Spot the Difference? activities with the Morph Image template and some external links to jigsaws using the NewPage navigator template. Talking of templates I could probably do a nice ?climate cross section? using the tabbed navigator to work down the latitudes. I?ll try the new Hangman template and I have a great audio clip from my friend (who set up the charity) describing his encounter with an angry hippo as a child when he was head butted into the river. That will go really well with the audio slideshow template. I could do another style of spot the difference with the annotated diagram template. If I?ve got time I?ll do a Camstudio screencapture describing the Savanna and then turn it into a synched video followed by a multichoice quiz. Would be nice if Xerte had an ?add page timer? option that could give you a countdown for doing a task under time pressure. I might copy the technical list into this email in case anyone there is working on a similar idea. Being primary age kids I?ll probably not risk the Flickr and YouTube templates since the results involve a degree of unpredictability! That?s my weekend sorted.. Thanks for the ideas ? I just needed something to get the creative juices flowing. I?ll let people see the finished products when I?m done .

Did you not see/receive my previous response re moodle patch? If you are using the current XOT 1.7 zip download from the Nottingham site there are some changes in that which mean the old moodle patch does not work. In the near future the files required to integrate moodle authentication will be part of the XOT download. For now with your current 1.7 install I would suggest the following: 1. Make sure everything is working in terms of creating and viewing LO's by using demo.php or switch.php (this has been explained previously) 2. Undo the previous moodle patch you've applied but keep a note of the require path you added. 3. Use the 2 files in the attached Moodle patch which is for the current 1.7 only. Read the readme file and add your require path to both files.

I can see some ?Xerte Spot the Difference? activities with the Morph Image template and some external links to jigsaws using the NewPage navigator template. Talking of templates I could probably do a nice ?climate cross section? using the tabbed navigator to work down the latitudes. I?ll try the new Hangman template and I have a great audio clip from my friend (who set up the charity) describing his encounter with an angry hippo as a child when he was head butted into the river. That will go really well with the audio slideshow template. I could do another style of spot the difference with the annotated diagram template. If I?ve got time I?ll do a Camstudio screencapture describing the Savanna and then turn it into a synched video followed by a multichoice quiz. Would be nice if Xerte had an ?add page timer? option that could give you a countdown for doing a task under time pressure.

Also copied to technical list in case they have any ideas on improvements (preferably not too technical!). Please note that I've just worked on the basic Xerte skeleton at the moment. I intend to use Xerte to link to jigsaw type activities (and other web based tools) as well as Interactive PowerPoints and interactive Word documents. http://itq.jisctechdis.ac.uk/xerte/play_66 is the resource so far. All of the templates I've used are bog standard Xerte templates but in places I've used a tiny bit of html code in the standard dialogue boxes to add some extra images. I uploaded the extra images using the Properties panel and then the Media and quota tab which allows you both to upload resources directly (like extra images or PPTs) as well as get a url for any resource you uploaded. I used the New Page Navigator template to link an interactive PowerPoint into the mix and I'll use this later for links to jigsaws and interactive Word docs as well. I found PPT absolutely brilliant as a really quick tool for editing images - for example in Slide 13 on the guitar section I needed arrows to point to different things that were being spoken about. I put the image I needed into PPT, duplicated it as many times as I needed then added the arrow, moving and resizing as required (see image below). You can then either group the arrow and image together and right click to "Save as image" or you can do what I did which was to use FS Capture - a free and portable screen snipping tool) to capture just the bits of each image that I needed. It's really quick once you have a logical workflow. Things I'm struggling with? At the moment the first three images on slide 13 don't show, even though they are definitely loaded and I can reference them in a test page on slide 14. I'm looking into that. I'm a little unsure if language levels etc are right. Content wise it's a bit of a mix but that's because we are using it as a test to sell an idea about how we could create development focused resources across different parts of the curriculum. I'm giving this a public outing on Thursday to see if it is worth developing for a schools consortium context in Hampshire so any improvements you can suggest in the short term will be welcome and after Thursday there may be opportunity for me to extend this work much further. I'll keep people updated because live projects are always fun, especially getting input and ideas from people. [cid:image001.png at 01CC9D30.F5DA57A0] PowerPoint being used as a Xerte Image editor.

In primary and secondary education, Xerte is likely to be used in a class based context - for example with an interactive whiteboard. In this case, teachers will often use timers to produce a creative tension or create friendly competitiveness between groups or even just help distractable pupils stay on track. For some learners that can be a trick that helps include them. Like many aspects of accessibility it's not the technique that is accessible or inaccessible but the context in which it is applied. I can, however, see that from a developer point of view it could be risky putting in a functionality that could be used inappropriately in the distance learning context.

I can see some ?Xerte Spot the Difference? activities with the Morph Image template and some external links to jigsaws using the NewPage navigator template. Talking of templates I could probably do a nice ?climate cross section? using the tabbed navigator to work down the latitudes. I?ll try the new Hangman template and I have a great audio clip from my friend (who set up the charity) describing his encounter with an angry hippo as a child when he was head butted into the river. That will go really well with the audio slideshow template. I could do another style of spot the difference with the annotated diagram template. If I?ve got time I?ll do a Camstudio screencapture describing the Savanna and then turn it into a synched video followed by a multichoice quiz. Would be nice if Xerte had an ?add page timer? option that could give you a countdown for doing a task under time pressure. I might copy the technical list into this email in case anyone there is working on a similar idea. Being primary age kids I?ll probably not risk the Flickr and YouTube templates since the results involve a degree of unpredictability! That?s my weekend sorted.. Thanks for the ideas ? I just needed something to get the creative juices flowing. I?ll let people see the finished products when I?m done .

Also copied to technical list in case they have any ideas on improvements (preferably not too technical!). Please note that I've just worked on the basic Xerte skeleton at the moment. I intend to use Xerte to link to jigsaw type activities (and other web based tools) as well as Interactive PowerPoints and interactive Word documents. http://itq.jisctechdis.ac.uk/xerte/play_66 is the resource so far. All of the templates I've used are bog standard Xerte templates but in places I've used a tiny bit of html code in the standard dialogue boxes to add some extra images. I uploaded the extra images using the Properties panel and then the Media and quota tab which allows you both to upload resources directly (like extra images or PPTs) as well as get a url for any resource you uploaded. I used the New Page Navigator template to link an interactive PowerPoint into the mix and I'll use this later for links to jigsaws and interactive Word docs as well. I found PPT absolutely brilliant as a really quick tool for editing images - for example in Slide 13 on the guitar section I needed arrows to point to different things that were being spoken about. I put the image I needed into PPT, duplicated it as many times as I needed then added the arrow, moving and resizing as required (see image below). You can then either group the arrow and image together and right click to "Save as image" or you can do what I did which was to use FS Capture - a free and portable screen snipping tool) to capture just the bits of each image that I needed. It's really quick once you have a logical workflow. Things I'm struggling with? At the moment the first three images on slide 13 don't show, even though they are definitely loaded and I can reference them in a test page on slide 14. I'm looking into that. I'm a little unsure if language levels etc are right. Content wise it's a bit of a mix but that's because we are using it as a test to sell an idea about how we could create development focused resources across different parts of the curriculum.

In primary and secondary education, Xerte is likely to be used in a class based context - for example with an interactive whiteboard. In this case, teachers will often use timers to produce a creative tension or create friendly competitiveness between groups or even just help distractable pupils stay on track. For some learners that can be a trick that helps include them. Like many aspects of accessibility it's not the technique that is accessible or inaccessible but the context in which it is applied. I can, however, see that from a developer point of view it could be risky putting in a functionality that could be used inappropriately in the distance learning context.

I can see some ?Xerte Spot the Difference? activities with the Morph Image template and some external links to jigsaws using the NewPage navigator template. Talking of templates I could probably do a nice ?climate cross section? using the tabbed navigator to work down the latitudes. I?ll try the new Hangman template and I have a great audio clip from my friend (who set up the charity) describing his encounter with an angry hippo as a child when he was head butted into the river. That will go really well with the audio slideshow template. I could do another style of spot the difference with the annotated diagram template. If I?ve got time I?ll do a Camstudio screencapture describing the Savanna and then turn it into a synched video followed by a multichoice quiz. Would be nice if Xerte had an ?add page timer? option that could give you a countdown for doing a task under time pressure. I might copy the technical list into this email in case anyone there is working on a similar idea. Being primary age kids I?ll probably not risk the Flickr and YouTube templates since the results involve a degree of unpredictability! That?s my weekend sorted.. Thanks for the ideas ?

In primary and secondary education, Xerte is likely to be used in a class based context - for example with an interactive whiteboard. In this case, teachers will often use timers to produce a creative tension or create friendly competitiveness between groups or even just help distractable pupils stay on track. For some learners that can be a trick that helps include them. Like many aspects of accessibility it's not the technique that is accessible or inaccessible but the context in which it is applied. I can, however, see that from a developer point of view it could be risky putting in a functionality that could be used inappropriately in the distance learning context.

I can see some ?Xerte Spot the Difference? activities with the Morph Image template and some external links to jigsaws using the NewPage navigator template. Talking of templates I could probably do a nice ?climate cross section? using the tabbed navigator to work down the latitudes. I?ll try the new Hangman template and I have a great audio clip from my friend (who set up the charity) describing his encounter with an angry hippo as a child when he was head butted into the river. That will go really well with the audio slideshow template. I could do another style of spot the difference with the annotated diagram template. If I?ve got time I?ll do a Camstudio screencapture describing the Savanna and then turn it into a synched video followed by a multichoice quiz. Would be nice if Xerte had an ?add page timer? option that could give you a countdown for doing a task under time pressure.

In-Reply-To: References: , , <9446AAD8654EEB47B3612560A330519420985CAC@ADSERVER.acer2008.local>, , <12C67A1EEC419342AF5E59DA31562C3F06A7A252A7@EXCHANGE1.ad.nottingham.ac.uk>, Message-ID: A fair point and well made! You will have noted of course my final point was "it could be risky putting in a functionality that could be used inappropriately in the distance learning context". To a large extent it's a maturity issue. The more 'accessibility mature' (ie aware and intelligently active) an organisation is the more there is to be gained by mixing and matching partially accessible solutions to meet particular needs. However, the concept of partial accessibility is dangerous in an organisation that lacks accessibility maturity because it then becomes an excuse for doing little or nothing and you can get cringe-worthy attitudes like "these resources are specifically designed for 'normal' people" - which just means "I don't know any good practices and couldn't be bothered finding out". There's some interesting discussion to be had around the area. My observations would suggest there are four main categories of developer in relation to accessibility: * The denialist - doesn't consider it and wouldn't know what it involved or why it was important. * The minimalist - does what is required to cover their back in terms of legislation and contracts. * The optimist - actively tries to engage and support learning with the use of different resources with different levels of accessibility in order to meet as wide a range of needs as possible by different methods. * The purist - only creates resources that are wholly standards compliant and fully accessible to all users irrespective of disability. The following comments are worth noting. Purists maximise the number of people who can use their resources but depending on the nature of the topic and the learner, they can compromise on the number of people who enjoy using them. They might also create resources at a slower rate. Denialists, minimalists and optimists are all well served by Xerte. Purists don't use it because it's based on Flash and everyone knows Flash is not only proprietary but also completely "inaccessible" :) A From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Dave Burnett Sent: 07 November 2011 12:46 To: Xerte list Subject: [Xerte] Re: Xerte in primary schools Alistair, is this not the slippery slope you have cautioned us of on other occasions?

The purist ? only creates resources that are wholly standards compliant and fully accessible to all users irrespective of disability. The following comments are worth noting. Purists maximise the number of people who can use their resources but depending on the nature of the topic and the learner, they can compromise on the number of people who enjoy using them. They might also create resources at a slower rate. Denialists, minimalists and optimists are all well served by Xerte.

I can see some "Xerte Spot the Difference" activities with the Morph Image template and some external links to jigsaws using the NewPage navigator template. Talking of templates I could probably do a nice "climate cross section" using the tabbed navigator to work down the latitudes. I'll try the new Hangman template and I have a great audio clip from my friend (who set up the charity) describing his encounter with an angry hippo as a child when he was head butted into the river. That will go really well with the audio slideshow template. I could do another style of spot the difference with the annotated diagram template. If I've got time I'll do a Camstudio screencapture describing the Savanna and then turn it into a synched video followed by a multichoice quiz. Would be nice if Xerte had an "add page timer" option that could give you a countdown for doing a task under time pressure. I might copy the technical list into this email in case anyone there is working on a similar idea. Being primary age kids I'll probably not risk the Flickr and YouTube templates since the results involve a degree of unpredictability! That's my weekend sorted.. Thanks for the ideas - I just needed something to get the creative juices flowing. I'll let people see the finished products when I'm done .

I tried the drawing tool and besides being too long-winded I found the text was displaying vertically and spilling over the edges of the box.

At the moment the first three images on slide 13 don?t show, even though they are definitely loaded and I can reference them in a test page on slide 14. I?m looking into that. I?m a little unsure if language levels etc are right. Content wise it?s a bit of a mix but that?s because we are using it as a test to sell an idea about how we could create development focused resources across different parts of the curriculum. I?m giving this a public outing on Thursday to see if it is worth developing for a schools consortium context in Hampshire so any improvements you can suggest in the short term will be welcome and after Thursday there may be opportunity for me to extend this work much further. I?ll keep people updated because live projects are always fun, especially getting input and ideas from people. [cid:image001.png at 01CC9D30.F5DA57A0] PowerPoint being used as a Xerte Image editor.

I am trying to create a table in a text page (Block off text with a table underneath) and can't find a way to do it. I tried the drawing tool and besides being too long-winded I found the text was displaying vertically and spilling over the edges of the box. I next tried the columns page but that looks awfull as a table (and you can't colspan) and then I tried writing the HTML in a text page but that didn't work. Could someone please tell me how this should be done please.

Forgive me if this looks like 'teaching grannies to suck eggs' (for our non-English colleagues that is one of the more weird English expressions) that is tables and accessibility raise some pedagogical questions as well as technical questions. In one respect a table is an accessibility end solution for people (lots of us) who would find a textual description of the same information difficult to comprehend. Tables work because they plot information visually in two dimensions allowing us to isolate different variables and trends from the mass of data. For people accessing the table without the benefit of sight the added value it provides depends on several factors. These include: * The table layout. In Thomas's example screen reader user would find the layout ideal for getting specific data on a specific apple but they would find it much harder to answer the question "which Apple has a higher sugar content?". To answer this question it would be better to swap the rows and columns so all the relevant data would be read in sequence. [cid:image001.png at 01CC9EC2.877222F0] * The size of the table. The screen reader user could arguably navigate a small table like the example here with relative ease but once there are more than six or so columns you are taxing the limits of short-term memory in order to do it by audio alone. * Accessibility is not just about blind users who can't see the table because plenty of dyscalculic and dyslexic people who can see the table will also struggle to make sense of what it is try to tell them. Consequently JISC TechDis recommend that tables should have the main teaching and learning point is described in much the same way as an image would be. The description could be in the body text or a caption or using appropriate HTML tags. * Making something technically accessible does not necessarily make it usable. If you use the text-to-speech mode to read the table above you spend a lot of time listening to "dash plus dash plus vertical bracket dash plus" etc in between the relevant data announcements. Ultimately, an accessible Xerte table template that allow people to create a table with text-to-speech compatibility, appropriate reading order and column/row heading announcement would be a real benefit. In the meantime, any of the workarounds kindly provided by Thomas and others could be made accessible in a pedagogical sense by ensuring the teaching objectives the table was designed to show are clearly stated in 1) tool tips on images of tables or 2) in the body text descriptions. Standards, guidelines and code have a vital contribution to make to accessibility but they don't guarantee a good user experience and good experiences for disabled users can sometimes be provided in nonstandard ways.

Another question: when I do 'debug(Inspect(rootIcon));' I get a list of about 50 functions scrolling by...are these AS2 functions, or xerte built in functions?

As soon as I removed the image tool tip the image would show. What is the in the code that would prevent an image showing when the tool tip had been added?

However I have given some thought to possible workarounds to improve the accessibility of text-based tables. My first suggestion would be to use the 'longdesc' attribute and embed it in anchors () surrounding the keywords, however I'm not sure whether this attribute will actually be recognised if it's attached to an anchor rather than an image and, as it is only recognised by text readers, I am unable to test this out. The second idea would be to embed a standard hyperlink to a descriptive page (probably the same one used by the 'longdesc'). Clicking on the link will bring up the page which can then be read by the text reader. The example below uses both as a belt and braces approach. It would be nice if you could use the 'Title' attribute to explain what the link does as that should be available if you hover over the link but this doesn't seem to be handled by Flash, nor does the 'Alt' attribute. Maybe there is some other way? Or maybe you can include them and the Text reader will speak them even though they don't show.

Yes that would be an excellent way of interpreting an image of the table, so long as the labels and feedback were thoughtfully designed.

Delivering content to desktops is still supported, Flash Player on the desktop is going nowhere and adobe are still actively developing the flash player for desktops. Nothing really changes. The announcement does put the issue of how to deliver content to mobile devices in the spotlight (it already was), essentially it means we have to treat all devices as we treat iOS where there is, already, no browser based flash player to get content to, so nothing changes as we couldn't ignore iOS anyway. We have a really powerful thing on our side: the separation of the data and the logic in toolkits. Already we are starting to use that data to drive the delivery of the content onto different platforms (mobile xerte) and plan to think about HTML5 as well.

It should become irrelevant which tool you use or what you're publishing to. Xerte is obviously a prime example of that ethos. Digital preservation is becoming a really big deal and I think big organizations are starting to realize that too. And with the increasing number of platforms and configurations to cater for, not only is it important for the data to be easily accessed and manipulated but also a single form of logic creation and rely on the tool to take care of publishing to those different formats. That Xerte is actionscript based almost doesn't matter as long as the tool can translate that to Android/iOS etc. I'm seeing the same trend in 3D gaming/simulation with Unity where it's (almost) create once and "single click" publish to a variety of platforms. In the case of Unity they're adding an export to Flash!

I am using Moode 2.1.2 (previous version always failed) and have tried XERTE content created with Xerte 2, as both Scorm 1.2 and 2004. In Moodle I can use IMS Resource or Scorm Activity to import the zip from the Repository. It appears to work well with paging buttons etc. But when I get to a video (embedded as a flv) it won't play. It seems to load happily, and the tracking bar allows me to verify that the whole movie has loaded, but it seems to play for about 10 frames before stopping.

I am using Moode 2.1.2 (previous version always failed) and have tried XERTE content created with Xerte 2, as both Scorm 1.2 and 2004. In Moodle I can use IMS Resource or Scorm Activity to import the zip from the Repository. It appears to work well with paging buttons etc. But when I get to a video (embedded as a flv) it won't play. It seems to load happily, and the tracking bar allows me to verify that the whole movie has loaded, but it seems to play for about 10 frames before stopping. Any ideas about this issue specifically, or whether there is a better way to integrate XERTE and Moodle?

We were looking for a "guide" or something on the Internet but without luck. Ron Mitchell has in his webpages some examples about customizations over XOT LO look, but none of them change the look too much, so probably its not an easy task. Yesterday, we downloaded the latest code from the google code svn of xerte and xot. We're not sure what version is. Anyway, the plan is: 1. Install xot from xerteonlinetoolkits svn folder.. 2. Open with Adobe Flash the "XMLEngine.fla" file from "xerte" svn folder. 3. Publish from Adobe Flash the "XMLEngine.fla" file to "XMLEngine.swf". 4. Replace "XMLEngine.swf" in xerteonlinetoolkits for the new one. 5. Test if XOT works. Lets see what happen. By the other hand, I think its important to document an example of customization. If we succeed, we will publish it on Internet. Take care. Jos?.

You can obviously do a lot of customisation using XMLEngine.fla but be aware that you are then out of sync with the official downloads and may need to merge future changes/additions with your customisations. Also as we've said on this list before one of the main strengths of Xerte and XOT is its built-in accessibility and it worries me every time I hear people say they want to remove the drop down menus at the bottom of the screen. These play a large part of the accessibility - please think carefully before removing these just for aesthetic reasons. If you really need to hide those options please consider adding a button so that users can still access those features.

Gregorio D?az Unda Sent: 17 November 2011 12:43 To: Xerte Discussion list Subject: [Xerte] Re: Customizing XOT Projects Hi Andy. We were looking for a "guide" or something on the Internet but without luck. Ron Mitchell has in his webpages some examples about customizations over XOT LO look, but none of them change the look too much, so probably its not an easy task. Yesterday, we downloaded the latest code from the google code svn of xerte and xot. We're not sure what version is. Anyway, the plan is: 1. Install xot from xerteonlinetoolkits svn folder.. 2. Open with Adobe Flash the "XMLEngine.fla" file from "xerte" svn folder. 3. Publish from Adobe Flash the "XMLEngine.fla" file to "XMLEngine.swf". 4. Replace "XMLEngine.swf" in xerteonlinetoolkits for the new one. 5. Test if XOT works. Lets see what happen. By the other hand, I think its important to document an example of customization. If we succeed, we will publish it on Internet. Take care. Jos?.

Best Andy -----Original Message----- From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Jose Diaz Sent: 17 November 2011 01:36 To: XERTE XERTE Subject: [Xerte] Customizing XOT Projects Hi everyone and thanks in advance. We're trying to customize "the look" of scorm packages built from XOT. We want to change how learning objects are shown: change logo, move buttons (forward, backward, etc.) to the bottom of the screen, hide all dropdown lists at the bottom of the screen, etc. We're take a look to "XMLEngine.fla" file, but we're not sure if we're in the right path. When we open the "XMLEngine.fla" with Adobe Flash, it shows a grayed rectangle with a lot of code. We just want to "drag and drop" elements of the screen to new positions. Attached to this message, we send an image of an example how much we want to change the "skin" of the learning objects. Any "step-by-step" guide to change this "look"? After changing the "look", we want to translate to spanish the XOT ... but this is another history. Thanks a lot again. Jos?. ? -- Lic. Jos? Gregorio D?az Unda.

That way a single XOT installation could have different styles for different LO's by the user uploading a stylesheet via media and quota. I think that would be quite popular.

Basically the options are - use the style sheet for colours etc; - turn visuals off and either add your own content in the entry frame; - turn visuals off and make your own swf to act as the interface - modify XMLEngine.fla From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Dave Burnett Sent: 17 November 2011 13:00 To: Xerte list Subject: [Xerte] Re: Customizing XOT Projects More likely the .rlt templates.

XOT. A bit more difficult, but the good news is, that all the things you mentioned can be done without changing XMLEngine.fla Depends a bit how you want to do it. I'll explain how to CHANGE an existing template. The easiest is the Nottingham Page Templates, because there is an equivalent in the standalone Xerte. - Get Xerte standalone and install it on your PC - Start Xerte, and start a new Page Templates project: - Choose a new directory and open the new project - Press play to say the current layout - Leave Xerte - Retrieve from your XOT installation the file in /modules/xerte/parent_templates/Nottingham/Nottingham.rlt - Copy it OVER the template.rlt file of the just created Xerte project - Open Xerte standalone again (by double-clicking template.rlt) in the folder - Quit the Wizard (by clicking the X) - First.... colours...: You can change the colours by setting optional properties such as titleBarColour - You can check what you did by double clicking the First Icon - and than press Play - Now for the logo and the position of the buttons etc... - Leave the Wizard and click on the tree structure and select the setup icon - Click on Script - In this script you can move the buttons around and switch on and off the list boxes and load a new default logo or banner You do this right below the first if statement (or if the template is older, below the loadIcon line) rootIcon.loadIcon(FileLocation + 'media/banner_sheet_transparant_cr.png'); _level0.engine.IFC.themes._visible = false; _level0.engine.IFC.fonts._visible = false; _level0.engine.IFC.access._visible = false; _level0.engine.IFC.sizes._x = 10; _level0.engine.IFC.txtSize._x = 120; Also a bit further down in this script all buttons are disabled by rootIcon.hideControls(); and several are enabled again on a different position. rootIcon.tocBtn._y = 550; rootIcon.nextBtn._y = 550; rootIcon.backBtn._y = 550; rootIcon.progress._y = 550; rootIcon.contButton._visible = false; - We added a banner (any logo wider than 200 pixels is placed in the upper left corner like a banner), so if you create a semi transparent png of 800x68, you can get some interesting effects! - Make sure you have the file mentioned in the loadIcon in the media folder!! - Check the results by double clicking the top left icon and pressing play to preview - Now save and leave Xerte. It is VERY important NOT to add ANY pages, because these will end in the template!!!

XOT. A bit more difficult, but the good news is, that all the things you mentioned can be done without changing XMLEngine.fla Depends a bit how you want to do it. I'll explain how to CHANGE an existing template. The easiest is the Nottingham Page Templates, because there is an equivalent in the standalone Xerte. - Get Xerte standalone and install it on your PC - Start Xerte, and start a new Page Templates project: [cid:image001.png at 01CCA534.28913870] - Choose a new directory and open the new project [cid:image002.png at 01CCA534.28913870] - Press play to say the current layout [cid:image003.png at 01CCA534.28913870] - Leave Xerte - Retrieve from your XOT installation the file in /modules/xerte/parent_templates/Nottingham/Nottingham.rlt - Copy it OVER the template.rlt file of the just created Xerte project - Open Xerte standalone again (by double-clicking template.rlt) in the folder [cid:image002.png at 01CCA534.28913870] - Quit the Wizard (by clicking the X) [cid:image004.png at 01CCA534.28913870] - First.... colours...: You can change the colours by setting optional properties such as titleBarColour [cid:image005.png at 01CCA534.28913870] - You can check what you did by double clicking the First Icon [cid:image006.png at 01CCA534.28913870] - and than press Play [cid:image007.png at 01CCA534.28913870] - Now for the logo and the position of the buttons etc... - Leave the Wizard and click on the tree structure and select the setup icon [cid:image008.png at 01CCA534.28913870] - Click on Script [cid:image009.png at 01CCA534.28913870] [cid:image010.png at 01CCA534.28913870] - In this script you can move the buttons around and switch on and off the list boxes and load a new default logo or banner You do this right below the first if statement (or if the template is older, below the loadIcon line) [cid:image011.png at 01CCA534.28913870] rootIcon.loadIcon(FileLocation + 'media/banner_sheet_transparant_cr.png'); _level0.engine.IFC.themes._visible = false; _level0.engine.IFC.fonts._visible = false; _level0.engine.IFC.access._visible = false; _level0.engine.IFC.sizes._x = 10; _level0.engine.IFC.txtSize._x = 120; Also a bit further down in this script all buttons are disabled by rootIcon.hideControls(); and several are enabled again on a different position. rootIcon.tocBtn._y = 550; rootIcon.nextBtn._y = 550; rootIcon.backBtn._y = 550; rootIcon.progress._y = 550; rootIcon.contButton._visible = false; [cid:image012.png at 01CCA534.28913870] - We added a banner (any logo wider than 200 pixels is placed in the upper left corner like a banner), so if you create a semi transparent png of 800x68, you can get some interesting effects! - Make sure you have the file mentioned in the loadIcon in the media folder!! - Check the results by double clicking the top left icon and pressing play to preview [cid:image013.png at 01CCA534.28913870] - Now save and leave Xerte. It is VERY important NOT to add ANY pages, because these will end in the template!!!

You can obviously do a lot of customisation using XMLEngine.fla but be aware that you are then out of sync with the official downloads and may need to merge future changes/additions with your customisations. Also as we've said on this list before one of the main strengths of Xerte and XOT is its built-in accessibility and it worries me every time I hear people say they want to remove the drop down menus at the bottom of the screen. These play a large part of the accessibility - please think carefully before removing these just for aesthetic reasons. If you really need to hide those options please consider adding a button so that users can still access those features.

We were looking for a "guide" or something on the Internet but without luck. Ron Mitchell has in his webpages some examples about customizations over XOT LO look, but none of them change the look too much, so probably its not an easy task. Yesterday, we downloaded the latest code from the google code svn of xerte and xot. We're not sure what version is. Anyway, the plan is: 1. Install xot from xerteonlinetoolkits svn folder.. 2. Open with Adobe Flash the "XMLEngine.fla" file from "xerte" svn folder. 3. Publish from Adobe Flash the "XMLEngine.fla" file to "XMLEngine.swf". 4. Replace "XMLEngine.swf" in xerteonlinetoolkits for the new one. 5. Test if XOT works. Lets see what happen. By the other hand, I think its important to document an example of customization. If we succeed, we will publish it on Internet. Take care. Jos?.

XOT. A bit more difficult, but the good news is, that all the things you mentioned can be done without changing XMLEngine.fla Depends a bit how you want to do it. I'll explain how to CHANGE an existing template. The easiest is the Nottingham Page Templates, because there is an equivalent in the standalone Xerte. - Get Xerte standalone and install it on your PC - Start Xerte, and start a new Page Templates project: - Choose a new directory and open the new project - Press play to say the current layout - Leave Xerte - Retrieve from your XOT installation the file in /modules/xerte/parent_templates/Nottingham/Nottingham.rlt - Copy it OVER the template.rlt file of the just created Xerte project - Open Xerte standalone again (by double-clicking template.rlt) in the folder - Quit the Wizard (by clicking the X) - First.... colours...: You can change the colours by setting optional properties such as titleBarColour - You can check what you did by double clicking the First Icon - and than press Play - Now for the logo and the position of the buttons etc... - Leave the Wizard and click on the tree structure and select the setup icon - Click on Script - In this script you can move the buttons around and switch on and off the list boxes and load a new default logo or banner You do this right below the first if statement (or if the template is older, below the loadIcon line) rootIcon.loadIcon(FileLocation + 'media/banner_sheet_transparant_cr.png'); _level0.engine.IFC.themes._visible = false; _level0.engine.IFC.fonts._visible = false; _level0.engine.IFC.access._visible = false; _level0.engine.IFC.sizes._x = 10; _level0.engine.IFC.txtSize._x = 120; Also a bit further down in this script all buttons are disabled by rootIcon.hideControls(); and several are enabled again on a different position. rootIcon.tocBtn._y = 550; rootIcon.nextBtn._y = 550; rootIcon.backBtn._y = 550; rootIcon.progress._y = 550; rootIcon.contButton._visible = false; - We added a banner (any logo wider than 200 pixels is placed in the upper left corner like a banner), so if you create a semi transparent png of 800x68, you can get some interesting effects! - Make sure you have the file mentioned in the loadIcon in the media folder!! - Check the results by double clicking the top left icon and pressing play to preview - Now save and leave Xerte. It is VERY important NOT to add ANY pages, because these will end in the template!!! Than: - copy template.rlt back over /modules/xerte/parent_templates/Nottingham/Nottingham.rlt - copy any media file into /modules/xerte/parent/Nottingham/media That should do the trick!

If I were redesigning an interface that would work with toolkits content, the single bestpiece of advice is that?I would make the stage area, for page content 800 x 514 pixels. Do what you want in the top and bottom bars, but layout is often hardcoded around those dimensions in the templates. You can position the content area with code, but keep it 514 height, because thats the height the templates all assume for layout. ? You could have a thick top bar and thin bottom bar, as we have now, or make a thick bottom bar, or whatever, but if you stick to 514 for the content area you can exploit pretty much the whole xerte toolset, bespoke content, hyprid projects, or bespoke stuff. ?

Friday 13:00 www.instantpresenter.com/techdisonline104 In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hi everybody just a reminder that this month's Xerte Friday session takes place on Friday 25th of November at 1300 GMT and is themed around teaching languages using Xerte online toolkits. As always there will be a mixture of links to sample learning objects, discussion of pedagogical approaches and opportunities to see some of the templates in action. To take part, grab a pair of headphones for your computer, load a browser and go to www.instantpresenter.com/techdisonline104 a few minutes before the starting time. You can test your system will work with our conferencing tool by clicking on the test link - http://www.instantpresenter.com/systemtest (takes just a few 30 seconds). More information and links to all the previous sessions can be found at http://www.jisctechdis.ac.uk/techdis/pages/detail/online_resources/Xerte_online_training_sessions_2011 Please forward this information to your language teacher colleagues to have a look at how the free Xerte Online Toolkits can reduce marking load and make online learning interactive and inclusive. Although the session will focus on modern languages the techniques are equally applicable to teaching English as a foreign language. Alistair This email is confidential and may be privileged.

You're trying to do a customisation? I think the setup scripts mostly pre-process the xml, load the models, pre-parse some stuff. I don't think it does much with the interface. Keep your stage area 514 px high: that's the size hardcoded into a lot of the templates. Use the 560 example to test, 'cos it's got pretty much all the templates in it: you can fish the xml out of your cache. What I might do is send in your own value for visuals and handle that as a separate case if you want to do anything funky in the engine. Or use the swf parameter on the interface icon t load a custom swf: the only dragon down that road is positioning the stage to the right place, but that's easy in code in the swf.

She is the original 'creator' for most of these and I am for the balance. We have worked together on these by using the 'share' functionality, which has been fine. But now we need to export the final finished resources. It looks to us like this can only be done by the original 'creator', which is not always easy to do. It would be easier now, if we could transfer 'ownership' of all modules to one person so they can be responsible for the export. Is there any way of either exporting an XOT to which you are not the original 'creator' or alternatively to transfer ownership to another user so they can undertake the export. Who would have these 'super-admin' rights?

I tried the following code: if (custom_cursor_mc._x>+530 || custom_cursor_mc._x<0) { Mouse.show(); custom_cursor_mc.stopDrag(); //remove custom cursor custom_cursor_mc.swapDepths(custom_cursor_mc._parent.getNextHighestDepth()); custom_cursor_mc.removeMovieClip();} I have the code for the custom cursor in an onClipEvent on the cursor mc (yes I know Julian - try to keep the code in the timeline......): onClipEvent (load) { Mouse.hide(); } onClipEvent (mouseMove) { updateAfterEvent(); _x = _parent._xmouse; _y = _parent._ymouse; } Any ideas where I am going wrong?

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.

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.

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.

Instead, I write the config.php manually to point things to my site. Now I have problem config the path-- the root file path is with "\" while the XOT short pathes are with "/" , when joining the 2 pathes, I got wrong path. For example: define( 'XOT_DIR', substr(getcwd(),0,strlen(getcwd())-5) ); $xerte_toolkits_site->users_file_area_short = 'USER_FILES/' $xerte_toolkits_site->users_file_area_full = $xerte_toolkits_site->root_file_path . $xerte_toolkits_site->users_file_area_short; The output is: 'D:\xampp\htdocs\testjet\library\includes\xotUSER-FILES/' so, I modified the full path to: $xerte_toolkits_site->users_file_area_full = $xerte_toolkits_site->root_file_path .* '\\' *. $xerte_toolkits_site->users_file_area_short; The output is: 'D:\xampp\htdocs\testjet\library\includes\xot\USER-FILES/' Seems not right.

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.

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:image021.png at 01CCAF55.56D14CE0] And LO content in the few supported pages types so far...

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:image009.png at 01CCAF55.EB4684D0] Here's a learning space, showing most of the supported things so far: [cid:image010.png at 01CCAF55.EB4684D0] 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:image011.png at 01CCAF55.EB4684D0] And LO content in the few supported pages types so far... [cid:image012.png at 01CCAF55.EB4684D0] An RSS feed: [cid:image013.png at 01CCAF55.EB4684D0] 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:image014.png at 01CCAF55.EB4684D0] An FLV file - mp4 should work as well... [cid:image015.png at 01CCAF55.EB4684D0] And a sound file (with albeit pretty crude controls so far) [cid:image016.png at 01CCAF55.EB4684D0] 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:image017.png at 01CCAF55.EB4684D0] So that includes playing the LOs directly on the play_ url if the device can cope with it....

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.

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) Here's a learning space, showing most of the supported things so far: 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.) And LO content in the few supported pages types so far. An RSS feed: 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 An FLV file - mp4 should work as well. And a sound file (with albeit pretty crude controls so far) 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: So that includes playing the LOs directly on the play_ url if the device can cope with it..

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.

Is there a specific requirements list e.g. Android version, Adobe Air version, Device compatibility? Any progress with the iOS version?

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
