<P><FONT size=2>Dear Xerte Team,<BR><BR>I have now discovered that there is a method _level0.engine.hotText.<BR><BR>There also appears to be a property hotTextClicked, though I am unsure<BR>what object it belongs to.<BR><BR>However since the hottext is not a child of an interaction I am unsure<BR>how to test for when the text has been clicked on, so as to trigger<BR>events from a script.<BR><BR>I have searched the help and the archives but cannot find anything that<BR>will give me the final part to solve the puzzle.<BR><BR>Kind regards<BR><BR>Johnathan<BR><BR><BR>Johnathan Kemp<BR>ICT Development Coordinator<BR>Connexions Staffordshire<BR>www.cxstaffs.co.uk<BR>01785 355714<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>-----Original Message-----<BR>From: xerte-bounces@lists.nottingham.ac.uk<BR>[<A href="mailto:xerte-bounces@lists.nottingham.ac.uk">mailto:xerte-bounces@lists.nottingham.ac.uk</A>] On Behalf Of Johnathan<BR>Kemp<BR>Sent: 03 September 2009 12:02<BR>To: Xerte discussion list<BR>Subject: [Xerte] How do you detect someone clicking on text that has<BR>beenmarked with the hot text tags?<BR><BR>Dear Xerte Team,<BR><BR>I have a text icon which contains text that is to long to fit in the<BR>text box, so I am using a scroll bar. However I want to trap the user<BR>clicking on sections of the text.<BR><BR>If I use a hot spot this becomes out of position when the user scrolls<BR>the text icon, as the text moves but the hot spot does not.<BR><BR>Could I use the hot text tags to mark the text I want the user to click<BR>on?<BR><BR>If so how would I then trap the event, distinguishing between one<BR>section of text within the icon and another?<BR><BR>I am trying to avoid breakApart() as the text icon in question is being<BR>used as a display area, being populated by script that reads the text<BR>property of the appropriate text icon to be displayed and then using<BR>setText() to set the text of the display text icon. If I can just put<BR>tags in the text that would be ideal.<BR><BR>Kind regards<BR><BR>Johnathan<BR><BR><BR>Johnathan Kemp<BR>ICT Development Coordinator<BR>Connexions Staffordshire<BR>www.cxstaffs.co.uk<BR>01785 355714<BR><BR><BR>This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and are<BR>intended solely for the use of the individual(s) or entity(s) to whom<BR>they are addressed.
