Hi Andy

Julian or Pat may well comment further but yes announcements of major
updates/new versions/tweaks etc are generally notified here on this list.
But what you've been part of discussions about are more interim and ongoing
tweaks and improvements that get added to the code repository more
frequently than the zip downloads and official notifications. It's your call
really as to how frequently you request your installation is updated.

Hi Ron - the update for the transcript works great. Thanks very much for
this.

 

So, in terms of our hosting company, PalePurple, and letting them know when
to update XOT templates, is there an announcement made through the Xerte
discussion list to make it known that XOT has been updated which I can then
relay to the hosting company, or should I just check towards the end of the
month if updating is needed? Just wondering since I really want to be
working with the latest version - especially since I have seen some really
cool stuff being considered/worked on recently.

 

Best wishes

 

Andy

Hi Andrew

yes sorry my fault for just typing the links rather than copying and pasting
:-(

 

The correct link to the zip of my example is
http://mitchellmedia.co.uk/xerte/textGraphicsTranscript.zip
<http://mitchellmedia.co.uk/xerte/textGraphicsTranscript/textGraphicsTranscr
ipt.zip>  rather than /textGraphicsTranscript/textGraphicsTranscript.zip

 

However as penance I have created a zip with just the two changed files:
http://mitchellmedia.co.uk/xerte/transcript_files.zip that contains just the
changed .xwd and .rlm files. Instructions for your hosts...

 

Download and extract
http://mitchellmedia.co.uk/xerte/textGraphicsTranscript.zip
<http://mitchellmedia.co.uk/xerte/textGraphicsTranscript/textGraphicsTranscr
ipt.zip> 

1. copy \models\textGraphics.rlm from the zip to
\modules\xerte\parent_templates\Nottingham\models\textGraphics.rlm

2. copy data.xwd from the zip to
\modules\xerte\parent_templates\Nottingham\data.xwd

 

I should add that Julian may have updated the Nottingham download zips from
the committed files and if so then of course updating your installation with
the latest version of XOT will update more than just these files so in
future that might be a better request unless you can get your host to give
you ftp access to update the files yourself.

Hi Ron et al. Thanks for all the input on the transcript button for the
Graphics and sound pagetype. This is all very fascinating. 

 

Ron, I sent the download link you provided to our hosting company, but the
link appears to be broken.

 

Could you just update me on what I should send our hosting company in terms
of the changes to the files needed to incorporate the improvement?

 

Thanks.

 

 

Andy
