[Xerte] Re: Toolkits - printing a certificate - how to?

[KnowledgeWare]

Hello Paul:

 

Thanks for that suggestion..one question..how do you mean 'create a
certificate'? 

 

How/what would I use to actually 'create' the certificate? Is it like a jpg
image? I'd need to be able to plug the users name, etc. into it.

 

Thanks

RonM2

One thing you could do is create a certificate on a page in Xerte, and
include a button or other interaction (such as an Event or timed response)
to print it. Attach a script icon with printAsBitmapNum(0, "bframe"); to the
print button. There are other print options, but printAsBitmapNum worked
best for my Desktop Xerte apps. I use that to allow students to print
whatever page they are on. If you aren't including anything with alpha
transparency, print() might work better than printAsBitmap() or
priintAsBitmapNum().

I posted a while back on this but have not seen a convenient solution..I'm
using toolkits 1.5 and would like to allow the student to print themselves a
certificate if they pass the final quiz. 

 

Anyone have suggestions on doing this before I started trying things? I see
a 'Flash Paper' icon in toolkits 1.5.but isn't Flash Paper history? This is
totally out of my area..any suggestions appreciated.

 

Thanks
