I don't think Xerte ever enlarges images but it will shrink them to make them fit space available. >From my own experiments I compiled the attached list of maximum image sizes for different page types. If you check the size of your images with these you may find your images are too big and therefore subjecting themselves to shrinking - it's not an issue in a photograph but in a screenshot with words and menus it is more problematic. To get a screenshot of the right size my advice would be 1) Get hold of a free screenruler tool - there are plenty around. I use portablepegtopruler, WinRulerPortable or ScreenRuler.exe (all free, all portable) as the fancy takes me. Line this up against the area you are thinking of capturing. 2) Use the built in zoom tool in whatever software you are demoing so that it fits the dimensions you need from the attached Doc 3) Use a free image capture tool like FSCapture, WinSnap, Snippy etc to snap a screen capture that is below the maximum size. Replace this image with the previous one you used and you should be OK.... Until you start viewing on a mobile device... though if you are using the sandpit you don't have the mobile export option until we upgrade in the next few weeks. If you never intend to use LOs in a mobile context and you only want to use the Flash based version then an alternative approach is to save images as SWF files and the free and easy way to do this is to download OpenOffice, run Open Office Impress (the PPT lookalike), resize page set up to be roughly the right size for your images, insert or Copy>Paste your existing "too big" image into the Impress page then export>SWF.

The main difference is that 1.9 has support for html5 playback and a few bug fixes. If you run XOT locally then it depends on how local it is. If you run using Maxos or via localhost / xampp then the install tends to be for one user - and so the sharing features are available, but you've no one to share with so they are somewhat spurious.

If the sandpit isn?t up to date it probably doesn?t have the Connector pages on it (they would appear in a separate category called Connectors beneath the Navigators category) The navigator pages generally allow you to put several layers of information on a page, for example in a series of tabs or sub pages. The connector pages generally allow you to create different routes through content based on a user?s choices/answers, rather than the traditional linear format (page 1, page 2, page 3... etc.) If you use the most up to date files on a local install you should be able to access these extra pages.

The main difference is that 1.9 has support for html5 playback and a few bug fixes. If you run XOT locally then it depends on how local it is. If you run using Maxos or via localhost / xampp then the install tends to be for one user - and so the sharing features are available, but you've no one to share with so they are somewhat spurious. On some networks a local pc install can be accessed from other pcs so sharing might work Hope the helps Pat On 6 Mar 2013, at 13:48, > wrote: Hello all We (Learning Services, University of Roehampton) are at the stage of thinking about installing Xerte, having had a go at creating content in the sandpit.

I want a few other people to try it before we install it fully, so I was thinking of doing a local install first, but it says that there would be some unavailable features.

This includes support for posting a connection to another page from within any text element on a page. These improvements unfortunately are based on a feature of XOT that does not exist in a standard Xerte project, so only apply to XOT and Xerte Page Templates projects. As a result of this you will see that in XOT and in Page Templates projects the following connector pages are no longer offered Tab Navigator Connector Redirector Connector Plain Text Connector as the ability to define a connection from within a text element on a page has rendered these pages redundant. The above pages are still available in Xerte "pages" type projects as the text element link creation feature is not available. Full details of the changes are covered in the help files that are available to support the use of the Connector pages.

If the sandpit isn?t up to date it probably doesn?t have the Connector pages on it (they would appear in a separate category called Connectors beneath the Navigators category) The navigator pages generally allow you to put several layers of information on a page, for example in a series of tabs or sub pages. The connector pages generally allow you to create different routes through content based on a user?s choices/answers, rather than the traditional linear format (page 1, page 2, page 3... etc.) If you use the most up to date files on a local install you should be able to access these extra pages.

This includes support for posting a connection to another page from within any text element on a page. These improvements unfortunately are based on a feature of XOT that does not exist in a standard Xerte project, so only apply to XOT and Xerte Page Templates projects. As a result of this you will see that in XOT and in Page Templates projects the following connector pages are no longer offered Tab Navigator Connector Redirector Connector Plain Text Connector as the ability to define a connection from within a text element on a page has rendered these pages redundant. The above pages are still available in Xerte "pages" type projects as the text element link creation feature is not available. Full details of the changes are covered in the help files that are available to support the use of the Connector pages.

If the sandpit isn't up to date it probably doesn't have the Connector pages on it (they would appear in a separate category called Connectors beneath the Navigators category) The navigator pages generally allow you to put several layers of information on a page, for example in a series of tabs or sub pages. The connector pages generally allow you to create different routes through content based on a user's choices/answers, rather than the traditional linear format (page 1, page 2, page 3... etc.) If you use the most up to date files on a local install you should be able to access these extra pages.

I found I needed to create a php.ini file with register_globals = true in order to get anywhere with xot. Having made that change, together with changing auth to use static.php, I'm now able to login and get the next screen, but I'm unable to create projects. Attempting to create a project brings up the edit screen with the URL http://myhost.fqdn/xerte/edit.php?template_id=2 and the error message: Invalid template_id (could not find in DB) (template_id increments by one on each attempt to create). If I display the Workspace properties, under the My Details tab I just get the fixed display strings but no values: My Details My name on the system is My last login was on My username is There are some entries in the database with the relevant id: templatedetails template_id creator_id template_type_id template_name date_created date_modified date_accessed number_of_uses access_to_whom 1 NULL 5 MyProject 2013-03-16 2013-03-16 NULL NULL Private templaterights template_id user_id role folder notes 1 NULL creator 0 NULL It looks odd that creator_id and user_id are NULL, so wondering if it is a problem with the authentication or logged-in-ID-tracking (would perhaps tie in with no details being displayed for the workspace properties). I get the same problem if I use the guest authentication method. Logging in to the management.php screen I don't get any functionality available - the screen appears OK with the standard options but text area just displays "the feature is for administrators only". Any suggestions as to how to fix the problem or next steps in further diagnosing it would be much appreciated. -- Regards Guy From xerte at pgogywebstuff.com Sat Mar 16 21:04:56 2013 From: xerte at pgogywebstuff.com (Pat @ Pgogy) Date: Sat, 16 Mar 2013 21:04:56 +0000 Subject: [Xerte] Re: Problem with XOT 1.9 In-Reply-To: <5144D79E.5040506@Footring.net> References: <5144D79E.5040506@Footring.net> Message-ID: <1B84CD95-3437-4B8C-8B92-77CA800052AE@pgogywebstuff.com> Hello, Two NULL suggest the session isn't starting correctly.

We are currently running Moodle 2.4 and looking at using Xerte in the future as part of our content development strategy. Although we host our Moodle site in-house on our own server we employ a third-party IT company to provide operational support for the hardware and its operating system (Linux). They also handle installation of new software and PC support. We asked our IT company to install the "Xerte Online Toolkits" and they replied with the following comments:- "Xerte online tools uses many of the same processes and packages as Moodle and I would worry installing it on the Moodle server, if say Moodle needed a different level of apache, php, mysql or anything else it could cause a problem with Xerte or vice versa. Also, looking at the install instructions Xerte wants XAMPP installing over the top of Linux, this would likely also break Moodle. This will need another web server by the looks of it." We don't have the technical knowledge to evaluate this response and it would be extremely helpful to me if someone could confirm whether there is indeed a potential conflict if Xerte and Moodle share the same web server thus requiring a separate server and whether you can offer any advice on handling this situation.

We asked our IT company to install the "Xerte Online Toolkits" and they replied with the following comments:- "Xerte online tools uses many of the same processes and packages as Moodle and I would worry installing it on the Moodle server, if say Moodle needed a different level of apache, php, mysql or anything else it could cause a problem with Xerte or vice versa. Also, looking at the install instructions Xerte wants XAMPP installing over the top of Linux, this would likely also break Moodle. This will need another web server by the looks of it." We don't have the technical knowledge to evaluate this response and it would be extremely helpful to me if someone could confirm whether there is indeed a potential conflict if Xerte and Moodle share the same web server thus requiring a separate server and whether you can offer any advice on handling this situation.

If you have Moodle 2.4 then you have everything required for Xerte Online Toolkits I'm just preparing this week's Xerte Friday which is all about installation etc and the basic requirements are as follows: Server hardware - Typically Linux or Windows Server software - Typically Apache or IIS PHP 5.2 or later Database software - MySQL only It sounds like you will have all those and upgrading those components in future is unlikely to cause and problems for Xerte XOT does not require XAMPP indeed XAMPP is not recommended for a production server only for local development XOT works extremely well together with Moodle in fact if you don't have access to LDAP for authentication then your best option is to install Xerte inside the Moodle installation and use Moodle for authentication. There is a readme file in the xerte download describing how to do this.

It looks like XOT can connect to mysql, but it can't write/insert records. Also, you're on Linux right? Could you try and switch on 'developer' mode in config.php by setting '$development=true' around line 26? Hopefully you see an error message immediately, or after inspecting the /tmp/debug.log file.

Also, I can see that the records get written but don't set the creator_id or user_id (which I'm guessing is the immediate cause of the "could not find in db" problem, and symptomatic of some deeper issue with my setup). Yes, I'm running on Linux. I'll try setting the developer switch tonight and see what happens. Thanks for the response - will let you know what happens with developer mode switched on once I've had a chance to set that up.

I don't think your technical people read the guide very well. If they try to install the software the installer itself lists all the technical requirements and offers to run some tests to make sure it works ok. On a strict level - Toolkits requires PHP and MySQL. The PHP version is a relatively modern version but in MySQL terms it does nothing fancy so most MySQL will be fine. If you use apache then XOT has some support for some apache features, but these aren't always turned on so you can use apache and not use these features.

I think we are suffering slightly from having a split of responsibility between our third-party IT company (who want to set up a server, install software and then leave the applications alone) and in-house staff (who want to customise the applications but without stepping into the operating system). There?s an element of ?toe-treading avoidance? that we haven?t experienced on our normal (Windows/Office) business environment. We are using Linux/Apache/MySql/PHP for our Moodle installation and this was only set up in January so we are on a steep learning curve on a number of technologies. I am genuinely grateful for the help provided by this technical forum (and somewhat apologetic for asking what must seem like very simple questions to the more experienced contributors).

I don't think your technical people read the guide very well. If they try to install the software the installer itself lists all the technical requirements and offers to run some tests to make sure it works ok. On a strict level - Toolkits requires PHP and MySQL. The PHP version is a relatively modern version but in MySQL terms it does nothing fancy so most MySQL will be fine. If you use apache then XOT has some support for some apache features, but these aren't always turned on so you can use apache and not use these features.

Date: Fri, 22 Mar 2013 15:04:07 +0000 Subject: [Xerte] XOT SCORM2004 and Blackboard - any experiences? Message-ID: Hello Colleagues! We are just starting to experiment with Xerte Online Toolkits here at Southampton. I've been testing creating simple Learning Objects with Xerte, exporting to SCORM 2004 and importing as a SCORM package into Blackboard 9.1 SP8 with the latest version of the Rustici SCORM Engine 2011.8.10809. Has anyone had any success getting results from a quiz within a XOT learning object going back into the Grade Centre? I've been trying with various options and have yet to be successful. When loading the object into Blackboard I receive this notification: "The importer determined that this manifest is most likely compatible with the SCORM 2004 standard. However, there is a resource node with a scormtype (lower case 't') attribute indicating that this manifest may have been intended to be a SCORM 1.2 manifest and thus may not play correctly." I've also noticed that the full screen button doesn't usually have an effect. Has anyone compliled a list of known issues with using Xerte Objects in Blackboard? And if anyone has a nice example learning object that works well with Blackboard using SCORM and passing scores back to the Grade Centre I would be very interested in testing it here, so as to be sure that our Xerte OT server is set up correctly and not the cause of the difficulties I've been having.

We've seen access troubles before on Vista, but never could pin it down. The current XOT only has two templates by default. All the functionality f previous templates has been moved into the Xerte Online Toolkit template.

I then upload the package into Blackboard as a SCORM package when I click to view this content the window opens and then says loading then just hangs. This happens with both SCORM versions and if I try to load the SCORM package to Blackboards coursesites page which has the latest version of BB with the same outcome Has anyone had a similar experience or know of a solution.

If after installing the latest xerte desktop, you still have problems, please let me know.

The problem is that if there are lengthy discussions of a technical nature on the xerteforteachers list we get teachers unsubscribing so we have to be careful to avoid that if possible. You ought to be able to resolve why you can't post here - perhaps try unsubscribing and subscribing with a different email? What you are describing sounds like a Moodle 'feature' where it doesn't allow access via http://moodle as well as http://www.moodle is that the case here? e.g. are you accessing moodle via www and xerte via http or the reverse? If it is that try making them both the same - you might need to edit the xerte url in the site details table. If it's not that I'm wondering if xerte can't access the moodle session for some reason? session save path? Does the xerte install work ok with guest rather than moodle authentication set in auth_config.php? It sounds like the integration_path is set correctly otherwise you wouldn't be prompted to login to moodle. I have installs working fine where xot isn't in the moodle directory but as I've said you then have to provide a link to the install from Moodle or manually visit the url once logged in. When xerte is within the Moodle directory it automatically redirects upon login just like it does when visiting a moodle resource or activity direct. The fact that it doesn't when xerte is outside the Moodle directory is a security protection within Moodle code and nothing to do with Xerte itself.
