<DIV>I played around with the examples yesterday and started to create my own "application". What really helped was to look at the "LearningObject.x3o" in the examples folder which is quite extensive. After being frustrated at the beginning I'm getting really exited now! Viewstack.selectedIndex was another puzzle piece that helped me, thanks!

<DIV>I'm very interested to use an external/internal stylesheet to style the text in my application. I see "Compile Style Sheet" in the Xerte menu and the styles properties of the various icons. Can you give me a hint how to integrate a style sheet?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Thanks for this great piece of software. From my point of view it seems to be the right combination of flexibility on the one hand side and ease of use on the other hand side. </DIV>

<DIV>Best,</DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>Try adding an Application Control Bar to the Application, and put some buttons in there. Add a viewstack, and add some pages to it - this is like a framework.

<P><FONT size=2>Dear List,<BR><BR>I downloaded the latest Xerte3 from googlecode which includes a Xerte examples folder. As far as I can see it the files in this folder are mainly examples of UI elements one can create in Xerte. What I still miss is somehow the big picture of how to create a Xerte3 application. Where do I put my navigation? How do I organize the flow of the application? Do you have any example of working e-learning module using Xerte3 or is it still to early to ask for one?<BR><BR>Regards,<BR><BR>Peter<BR><BR>==================================<BR>Peter Huppertz<BR>E-learning and IT Specialist<BR>International Centre for Asset Recovery<BR>Basel Institute on Governance<BR>Phone: +41 61 205 55 18<BR>Fax: +41 61 267 55 19<BR><BR>_______________________________________________<BR>Xerte mailing list<BR><A href="mailto:Xerte@lists.nottingham.ac.uk">Xerte@lists.nottingham.ac.uk</A><BR><A href="http://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/xerte">http://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/xerte</A><BR></FONT></P></DIV></DIV>_______________________________________________<BR>Xerte mailing list<BR><A href="mailto:Xerte@lists.nottingham.ac.uk">Xerte@lists.nottingham.ac.uk</A><BR>http://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/xerte<BR></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV><BR>
