[Xerte] Transparent draggable items....?

[Kemp Johnathan]

Are you using Xerte or Xerte On-line toolkits?

The last release of Xerte contained changes to the categories.rlm file which
were I think designed to automate the size of the draggable labels. As far
as I can tell the code no longer utilises the labelSize value in the wizard
(I don't think this worked anyway in the earlier version) and now sets all
labels to the size required for the largest label. Whether there are
conditions that could result in a label height that was so small that only
the text would show I don't know.

Hope this is of help.

Kind regards

Johnathan
