[Xerte] Default interface size

[Lockley Patrick]

Scroll down the properties on the learning object icon (i.e the very top
one - sure it has a proper name).

At the bottom is one called stageSize

Click add

Then the format is width,height

Hope this helps

Subject: [Xerte] Default interface size

This just *has* to be a FAQ. How do I set the default width and height
of the main interface in a learning object? TFM, or rather the Help
file, lists amongst the properties of the Interface icon:

x
The x coordinate of the upper left corner of the default interface

y
The y coordinate of the upper left corner of the default interface

w
The width of the default interface

h
The height of the default interface

but none of these appear in the drop-down list of properties for this
icon in Xerte 1.9 - there's only "swf" and "helpfile". You can add
properties with these names manually but that has no effect, as if they
were just user-defined variables. I suspect that there'll be a bit of
code needed...

Curiously, if you do add a user-defined property, you can't delete it
afterwards, as far as I can see.

Cheers

Fred
