Hello Julie,

I'm sorry for the delay in releasing the Interactive List page wizard.

I am still in the process of completing the next release but if you place the attached file in your program files/ Xerte / wizards / e) Interactivity folder it will provide you with a fully functional page wizard for creating Interactive List pages.

I hope this enables you to proceed with your project whilst I finish tidying up a few loose ends with the other wizards that will be new in the next release.

Kind regards

Johnathan

Hi Johnathan

Re your reply below. Can you give me an idea when you think the wizard for the intreractive list will be published? I was hoping to use it in a course I'm building and hoping to have it finished by next week. I have looked at some of the other interactions e.g. hot spots and annotated diagram but the list meets my requirements best.

Thanks
Julie

Hi Johnathan

Thanks for your reply. I am still very much a xerte newbie but this makes things a bit clearer and I'll definately wait on your new wizards being published.

Regards
Julie

Julie,

You need to differentiate between the Page Templates project wide template and the Page Wizards.

The Page Templates project wide template is the original source of all the page types. 

When Julian creates a new page he creates it within this project wide template. When you use this project wide template you cannot use page wizards or work with your project at the basic icon level that you get by default with Xerte. You just use the page definitions provided by the Page Templates template and populate them by filling in each pages form.

Page wizards are derived from the Page Templates pages, but are used when you are using Xerte at the default icon level that you are presented with when you first open Xerte. So when Julian adds a page to Page Templates it cannot be used as a wizard.

I try to keep up with changes to Page Templates and create new wizards for any new page types that appear in Page Templates.

I have now completed new page wizards for the Interactive Diagram (offers hotspots of different shapes i.e. not just rectangle) and also the Interactive List, however I have not yet published them as I am working on a third wizard that will be new to Xerte and wanted to release this at the same time. Unfortunately I am still ironing out a few issues with this template.

Hopefully I should be able to publish all three within a few days. Until them it is probably not worth messing around trying to create your own wizard for the Interactive List (unless you fancy the challenge :-) ) 

Kind regards

Johnathan

Create a new project using the Page Tempaltes template, and create a list in there…

That should work?

Hi

Thanks for this, I downloaded the interactive list files from the .svn, but I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong as I can't get any of the content to display when I preview the list.rlm.

I have created a list.xml, which I link to from the rlm file in template data. This opens the wizard and lets me add nested pages for the list with interaction, text & images etc. When I open the xml file I see it is populated with the data from the wizard but none of it displays in the rlm file.

I am very new to xerte so I don't know if I have to edit the wizard I downloaded from the .svn so it only has the same nodes as the xml file or if I can use it as it is?

Thanks
Julie

…or download the latest Xerte.: I just put a fresh build up.

An updated toolkits zip will follow sometime over the summer – there are a number of things going on I want to release all at once. You can follow changes through the .svn if you want to,

This the sort of thing you have in mind?

Yes that would be great. I saw the idea on the Accessibility Example (right side) on the Xerte homepage.

Thanks

There isn’t an ‘interactive list’ template. 

Would you like one? It would be easy to create one that displays a list, and then selecting items in it show nested pages, like the navigators,

Hi

I have been using Xerte for a few weeks looking at both the developer toolkits and the online toolkits. I saw a learning object example that had an interactive list however I can't see how to add this either from the online toolkits or using the page template models. Can you help?

Thanks
Julie
