[Xerte] Re: Xerte query-please help

[Smith, John]

Hi Kathryn

Would something like this work for you? - this may be what Dave was referring to when he used the highly technical term jigger ;-)

I could talk you through the stages of setting one of these up...

Hi Dave,

Thank you for your email. Please forgive my ignorance, I am not well versed in coding and would not know how to build a custom interface. Are there any tutorials or anyone you could recommend to contact, to help with me this?

Thank you.

Kind Regards,

Kathryn

Hi Kathryn,

AFAIK, unfortunately the standard menu would not support that type of functionality.
You would need to build a custom interface. (and take into account that the HTML5 version would also need to be customized).

There may be a way to jigger the Accordion style menu.
Take a look at that.

Dave

Hi Dave,

Thank you for your quick reply. I think a TreeView type menu sounds like what I may mean, would it be possible to have this within the table of contents and do you know how I may go about this? I am using Xerte 2.0 Online Tool-kits.

Thank you.

Kind Regards,

Kathryn

I know it can be done in Xerte desktop (as a component).
XOT?

I would like to know if there was a way to display the main headings on the contents page that could be further clicked to reveal associated subheadings, please see attached for further clarification. I have tried to use multiple perspectives but have been limited as can only upload videos as flv or wmv file types, so am using YouTube to display videos. I have also considered tabbed navigator, but as far as I am aware that only allows one type of media to be uploaded and my e-tutorial covers multiple media types under on heading.
