built-in accessibility and it worries me every time I hear<br>people say they want to remove the drop down menus at the bottom of the<br>screen. These play a large part of the accessibility - please think<br>carefully before removing these just for aesthetic reasons. If you really<br>need to hide those options please consider adding a button so that users can<br>still access those features.<br><br>Ron<br><br>-----Original Message-----<br>From: <a ymailto="mailto:xerte-bounces@lists.nottingham.ac.uk" href="mailto:xerte-bounces@lists.nottingham.ac.uk">xerte-bounces@lists.nottingham.ac.uk</a><br>[mailto:<a ymailto="mailto:xerte-bounces@lists.nottingham.ac.uk" href="mailto:xerte-bounces@lists.nottingham.ac.uk">xerte-bounces@lists.nottingham.ac.uk</a>] On Behalf Of José Gregorio<br>Díaz Unda<br>Sent: 17 November 2011 12:43<br>To: Xerte Discussion list<br>Subject: [Xerte] Re: Customizing XOT Projects<br><br>Hi Andy.<br><br>We were looking for a "guide" or
something on the Internet but without luck.<br><br>Ron Mitchell has in his webpages some examples about customizations over XOT<br>LO look, but none of them change the look too much, so probably its not an<br>easy task.<br><br>Yesterday, we downloaded the latest code from the google code svn of xerte<br>and xot. We're not sure what version is.<br><br>Anyway, the plan is:<br><br>1. Install xot from xerteonlinetoolkits svn folder..<br>2. Open with Adobe Flash the "XMLEngine.fla" file from "xerte" svn folder.<br>3. Publish from Adobe Flash the "XMLEngine.fla" file to "XMLEngine.swf".<br>4. Replace "XMLEngine.swf" in xerteonlinetoolkits for the new one.<br>5. Test if XOT works.<br><br>Lets see what happen.<br><br>By the other hand, I think its important to document an example of<br>customization.<br><br>If we succeed, we will publish it on Internet.<br><br>Take care.<br><br>José.<br><br> <br>Enviado desde mi dispositivo movil BlackBerry® de
