[Xerte-dev] Re: FW: Connector pages

[Ron Mitchell]

I think the scenario connector is a very different kettle of fish to the
other connector pages. Personally I don't think the others should be removed
as they are simple enough and provide very useful functionality. 

However I have to confess not getting to grips with the scenario connector
either and partly because I'd want more control over the aesthetics even if
I fully understood how to use it.

Just my 2 cents...

See below from Fay, who is manning a stand at ALT-C.

I'm proposing we take the connectors out of the current released version,
before any more of the genie gets out of the bottle. We have unresolved
issues with the navigation system to figure out, and there is insufficient
documentation regarding them to enable users to have a good time with them.

If people want to build more complex things, they can use the standalone
version. I don't know if connectors make sense in the new HTML5 stuff.

Hello

Just had an embarrassing moment on the stand... Someone came over to say
that they have just installed toolkits and she had been looking at the
Scenario Connector page and wanted help trying to understand it. I said I
hadn't used it myself but would try to work it out - it turns out I have no
idea what the hell goes on in it, how do you get the scores to link to the
actions? It desperately needs more instructions as if I can't make sense of
it, being pretty familiar with Toolkits, then not many pople will! I did say
that it was developed by someone in the Xerte Community so that's why I
wasn't too sure about it.

See you in a couple of weeks
Fay
