<div>Hello Stefanie,<br></div><div><br></div><div>The page wizards were implemented to provide access to both the full Xerte desktop editing environment and all the pages that were available in pageTemplates based projects. There are even a few pages that are not currently available in pageTemplates e.g. the routed pages that let you define one or more destinations that the learner can be taken to when they exit the page.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Page Wizards were never part of the official Xerte release. </div><div><br></div><div>Page Wizards are a great way to learn more about how to create your own Xerte page designs, but you might want to hold back from creating any live projects with them as they will become effectively obsolete with the next release of Xerte. If you have created any Page Wizard based projects they will continue to work. But the next release of Xerte will include individual page templates, as well as all the features you are already used to, Effectively the Page Wizard approach is being incorporated into desktop Xerte. This will offer significant improvements to the ease of use of the current Page Wizards - automatic folder creation, thumbnails and hints to help with page selection etc. </div>
<div><br></div><div>Kind regards</div><div><br></div><div>Johnathan</div><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 3 February 2012 18:12, Panke, Stefanie <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:panke@sog.unc.edu">panke@sog.unc.edu</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1f497d">Hello Ya’ll,</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1f497d">First of all: I am liking Xerte more and more every day – especially since this morning, finally, I discovered the “wizard page package” that allows me to combine template convenience with the editing functionality
which the general Xerte provides. Pretty cool.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1f497d">Anyone new to Xerte should definitely review the following two pages in the wiki:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1f497d"><a href="http://wiki.xerte.net/index.php5?title=Image:Guide_to_installing_and_using_Page_Wizards.pdf" target="_blank">http://wiki.xerte.net/index.php5?title=Image:Guide_to_installing_and_using_Page_Wizards.pdf</a> (note that
the current version is a dead link, any of the other files open fine).</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1f497d"><a href="http://wiki.xerte.net/index.php5?title=Image:JK_PageWizards.zip" target="_blank">http://wiki.xerte.net/index.php5?title=Image:JK_PageWizards.zip</a>
</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1f497d">I still have not figured out the printing yet, so any input on how to place a print button, ideally on each page, would be greatly appreciated. Can I include a button in the interface background image? Or should
I add an image, position it and add the script to it on every page? Do I need to use an event handler for that?</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1f497d">As for the screen size, on the published Web site / Xerte player, I can change the screen size from default, to large, larger, full screen and fill window. When I export my learning object as a Web page, I get
the following results:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1f497d">Default: everything is fine.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1f497d">Full screen: a grey bar appears below the module.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1f497d">Fill window: no change, stays default size.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1f497d">Large resp. larger: Resizes content area so that the controls and parts of the content disappear from view. User has to reload the page to return to the default view.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1f497d">So my thought was that I have a faulty setting for the learning object or interface. All the other accessibility features (i.e., font and color changes) work fine. The Sherwood Forest Learning Object has the
same issue:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1f497d"><a href="http://equella.nottingham.ac.uk/uon/items/140dba30-9f66-0853-7252-f47bb62cbae6/1/ViewIMS.jsp" target="_blank">http://equella.nottingham.ac.uk/uon/items/140dba30-9f66-0853-7252-f47bb62cbae6/1/ViewIMS.jsp</a> (choose
screen size large or larger).</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1f497d">Best,</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="color:#1f497d">Julian,</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="color:#1f497d">Thank you very much! The example was very helpful and I was able to create the standard glossary AND include the University logo following the same logic. I just did not pay enough attention
on how to do the scripting in the help file.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="color:#1f497d">I have two more critical issues I hope this list can help me to resolve, before I can hopefully start a XERTE project for UNC School of Government. Both have impacts on accessibility
/ user friendliness:</span></p>
<p style="margin-left:1.0in">
<span style="color:#1f497d"><span>1.<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"">
</span></span></span><span style="color:#1f497d">Printing: How can I use rootIcon.printScreen(); to offer users the option to print individual pages? When I add it as a script to a single page, it automatically launches the default printer while,
or rather before, loading the page. I am apparently doing something wrong there… Any hints?</span></p>
<p style="margin-left:1.0in">
<span style="color:#1f497d"><span>2.<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"">
</span></span></span><span style="color:#1f497d">Screen Size: The player offers several screen size options; however, they do not work with my module. I also tried other Xerte modules like the “Sherwood Forest” and it’s the same problem. What am I
doing wrong so that this very useful feature gets disabled?</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color:#1f497d">There is a built in Glossary. It needs to be enabled before you can use it, and then you can add words to it, with definitions:</span></p>
