I must have missed something somewhere along the line - I didn't realise
that you had added this code.
Both "Pages" projects and ordinary Xerte projects created using file / new
will have an ,rlo extension.
File / New projects are named by the author e.g. myProject.rlo whilst
"Pages" projects always have the file pages.rlo so testing for the
existence of pages.rlo would be unique in all cases save the chance
situation in which someone created a File / New project and decided to name
their project "pages".
A further possible identifier might be the existence of a folder called
"pages" in the project folder. This folder does not exist when you create a
"Pages" project. But it is created when you add the first page from the
selection of pre-defined pages.
"Pages" projects also have a a setup script that is a child of the
entryFrame that includes the line
rootIcon.projMode = "dev";
This sets the variable that is tested for by every model file to identify
if the project is a pages project or a XOT / pageTemplate project.
However I am guessing that this will only e set at run time so would not be
of use as a value to test for in the editor.
If the optimum route was to add a property to the learning object then
there are two approaches I can think of
1. The learning object in a pages project has its own xwd form pages.xwd
and it would be simple enough to add a property to that form as an
identifier.
2. A better solution might be to add a new property to the learning
object itself - i.e. to show up in the learning object's property panel.
(Would this require a change in the code that defines a learning object?)
If either 1 or 2 were implemented as a solution then it might be tidier
then to modify the test in the model files to use this value rather than a
value set in a setup script.
What do you think is best?
Does any of the above give you the identifier you need?
Kind regards
Johnathan
