By the way. Every so and so often Xerte3 stops working on my machine, when I try to preview my piece. So, it is still beta and it all in all works quite stable. Just to let you know. The windows problem report tells me the following:

I'm working on Windows 7 in a Parallels installation on my Mac. So there are many players involved ... Also sometimes it complains about something with the C++ runtime ... before it stops working. If it helps I will include the error message when it comes up again.
Will there be by any chance a Mac Version of Xerte3 in the longer run?

I'm now on creating the 12th page of my piece and clicking eleven times to see it is doable, but not very convenient (on the other hand this makes sure that you keep your e-learning piece focussed on the most important topics :-)).
