[Xerte] Re: Is there any way to change the label for the themescontrol in the default interface?

Mon Mar 26 15:45:27 BST 2012

Thank you, Tom. This resolved the issue for me.

Interesting, though, that merely changing the text in english.xml in my
project folder did not change the display when I chose to preview it in
authoring mode. I had to change the file in the Xerte installation
folder as well. But just uploading the english.xml file to my server
folder changed it there.

It's all good now.

Cheers,
Paul

Paul,

There are three efforts to provide internationaliz(s)ation. The runtime
(engine), the Xerte Toolkits website and the wizard.

You're looking for the engine, and that's already in place in 2.17
(courtesy of Julian). 

For existing LO's look for the folder languages. For each available
language there is a xml file. You want the english.xml (default), and
change the 'themes' node.

For all future LO's, change the english.xml file in the language folder
of the xerte installation.

For others looking for the same functionality on toolkits, there is a
language folder in the root folder of the toolkits installation.

Regards,

Tom

Hi Paul,

All of xerte is getting internationalised - desktop and XOT.

Replying for the karma, and also so you don't burn up some time on
something that might be almost done.

	Thanks, Pat. I should mention this is on desktop Xerte, v 2.17.
We are looking at going to a Moodle LMS this year, and if I get involved
in that, I'm going to push getting XOT installed.

	Isn't after midnight your time? What the heck are you doing
answering emails? I've only got a half-hour of workday left, and I'm at
GMT -7!

	Cheers,

	Hi Paul,

	We (me on the php, Tom and Jonathan for the XML side) are
working towards internationalising the code.

	They'll know more than me but maybe subbing to the dev list they
might be able to go into more depth.

'topLabel' property which accepts an object, so I tried:

		themesCtrl.label = '--Themes';
		_level0.engine.IFC.themes.topLabel = themesCtrl.label;

		But it still says '-- Colour Schemes' even though
inspect() shows 'topLabel : --Themes'
