[Xerte] Re: What version of desktop is publicly available?

Fri Aug 31 09:12:16 BST 2012

I didn't notice that setup.iss, which for the last seven years has produced setup.exe, had been changed to create xerte.exe instead.

It's correct now.

Somehow, something went wrong there.

In the mean time I've uploaded a new xerte.exe on the (new) xerte community website:

Weird: I see the fla has changed, I compile a new wizard.swf, the svn doesn't pick up any changes in the file, and when I try and commit I see no files have changed. Double checked: yes, the new icon is in the librry of wizard.fla, so wizard.swf should now be different.

Hmm.

We've crossed emails - the wizard.fla is committed, as is the xwd.

As far as I know there is nothing else that is awaiting my attention with regards to the release of the new version of the desktop.

Kind regards

OK,

I have exported a copy of wizard.fla from the xerte svn / editor / folder

I have followed your instructions to add a new icon icIndexChanger and saved the changes.

Are there any specific settings that you use to compile wizard.swf from the new fla file, or would you prefer me to simply upload the changed wizard.fla file to the svn for someone else to build the .swf file?

Kind regards

Yes, it's the name of the library item (movieclip) in the library of wizard.swf.

To make a new one

Insert -> New Symbol. Enter the name and leave MovieCLip selected.

Now import the icon to the stage.

Find the item in the library and right click, linkage properties and select export for actionscript / export in first frame

The identifier is what's used , you don't need to do anything with AS 2.0 class.

On looking at the format for the adding of an icon in the xwd file it appears that the file name is not used e.g.

icon="icSound"

so where does the "icSound" bit come from? Is this a reference allocated to the image file when it is imported into the editor.swf?

If so I will be happy to edit the xwd file as soon as I know what identifier has been given to the icon.

Kind regards

The only page missing an icon is the index changer.

Tom asked me about this on the 8th August and I replied on the 12th having been away on holiday.

In fairness to Tom I told him I was unaware of the icon set he referred to, explained what the page did and invited him to select an icon.

I have just googled for the famfamfam icon set and found them.

So in the absence of any other icon having been allocated in the meantime can i suggest we use the icon attached. If that is acceptable.

I will modify the indexChanger.xwd file to use that icon, but I will need someone else to do what is necessary to include it in Xerte so that the icon lists against the page and the xwd file can find it. This should not affect XOT in any way as the indexChanger page is unique to the desktop environment.

Sorry for any delay that may have been down to me.

Kind regards

I am not aware of anything else that I need to be doing at the moment.

As far as I can see the few remaining items all relate to minor issues with the editor.

If I am wrong in this and Xerte desktop release is being held up because people are waiting for me to do something then please let me know.

Kind regards
