[Xerte] Changing the frame size.

Wed Dec 19 12:45:56 GMT 2007

Ooops I forgot to mention my templates menu does not seem to point to any
templates  - the two menus just seem to be telling me this is where I put my
templates.... maybe that is the intention  and this is not where I find new
templates?

e.g. Xerte Page Templates

This folder contains the page templates that are included with Xerte. Page
templates must be added to an existing file.

Best wishes E.A.

You can't do it I'm afraid. You'll need to re-position the items to the new
layout,

Julian

I am so sorry to bother folks this week but I have been asked to change the
frame size on some learning objects I have made to 700 pixels wide.  I am
wondering how to do this without the buttons being chopped off at the side
and losing some of the content.  It seems just crop item when you use the
dimension feature rather than Just reduce the size generally.  Does this
need to be done with script in a web page? 

Happy Christmas and New Year and many thanks.

Julian, 

I've been trying to modify the html template (C:\Program
Files\Xerte\publish\html\rloObject.html) that creates the launching page.
I've added style="margin:0" to the <body> tag, and I wonder if a future
update will overwrite that file? By adding the margin parameter, the web
page is sized just right, with no margins (they end up white, which doesn't
match the background color of the Learning Object).

Maybe everyone would be interested in making <body style="margin:0"> the
default?
