mAuthor update information

Written by Learnetic Team | Mar 29, 2023 7:42:25 AM

The player and the editor have been updated with the following changes:

  1. The Zoom feature in the IWB Toolbar module has been improved. Two new properties have been added that allow more control over the zoom’s behavior. 
  2. A new option in the Items Editor has been added: now it’s possible to add an item between any two items using the + button.
  3. Two new features that make it easier to set the TTS module have been added:
    1. It is now possible to define default titles for each type of the module. To access this feature you need to open the Presenter menu in the editor and select the WCAG option. There you will see the "Edit default TTS titles" button.  Once the titles are defined, when you use the Autofill option of the TTS module the default titles will be used there. 
    2. There is a new property visible in all modules that support the TTS Mode - “TTS Title”. The title defined in this field will be copied into the Title field for the module, listed in the Configuration property of the TTS module after using the Autofill button. This field has higher property than the default title. You can read more about the Autofill option in the documentation
  4. A bug in the Assessment Navigation Bar module, where the Lesson Reset didn’t clear the all-attempted status for the pages has been fixed.

There is also important information regarding these changes: please make sure to update the player on your platforms (we've updated it on mCourser). Introducing the functionality of default titles required us to modify the data structure; for that reason, lessons created or edited on mAuthor since today will not run on older versions of the player.
