[Xerte-dev] Re: Some items for the wish list (when we have one).

[Smith, John]

Hi Thomas

Not sure about 1 - don't think the svn can or should do it but perhaps Tom's autopackager could add a version file then we could add an include. Tom?

2. I thought the publish/export problems had been solved but maybe not. Will take a look.

3. Don't know what determines order but yes it would be good to leave the original at top. 's' depends how you look at it i suppose. Julian?

Good Evening everyone,

I would like to see the following items included


1)      Make the default copyright String show the revision number and possibly the date, e.g
Version 2.0 r854 (2013-04-30) Copyright University of Nottingham 2008 – 2012
This is going to make life a lot easier for those of us who are supporting users remotely
now that regular updates are coming out.

2)      Restore the link to the HTML-5 output in the Properties Project Tab. This was really useful

In know there has been some discussion about this and that it’s meant to be automated,
but at the moment, in r584, you can tick the ‘Javascript’ option when you publish, but it
still displays Flash when you view it. Adding ‘&engine=html5’ obviously works, but may be

Beyond some of our users.

3)      Change the order in which the ‘Blank Templates’ are displayed so that ‘Xerte Online Toolkit’

Is the first one. This is going to make life a lot simpler for newbie developers (and pros too,
possibly). And by the way shouldn’t it be ‘Toolkits’ with an ‘s’ on the end?

Good to see that we can now export HTML5.Thanks for this

Kindest regards, Thomas
