Is there any way to insert a Glossary Interaction into a course without using a drop down tab at the top if the player -- for example, link it to a glossary icon at the bottom of the screen.?
You could insert a slide at the end of your presentation that is hidden and the slide beofre does not branch to and insert an icon with a hyperlink to that slide
You could insert a hyperlink e.g. glossary/engage.html and pupblish your engage to web and add the contents to a glossary folder in the root directory of the published folder
You could put a glossary icon at the end of the page and add a hyperlink to fire the glossary on the tab
Finally you could use a custom skin, or even jsut a swf in the logo area
You could insert a slide at the end of your presentation that is hidden and the slide befre does not branch to and insert an icon with a hyperlink to that slide
Thi shows three examples file attached, the links will break for linking to an external glossary just change the \ to / one of the exaple uses a widget from brian houle
Hi Phil - I would like to use Brian's widget to link to my glossary so that it opens as if from within my player, rather than a separate window - do I need to have published the glossary as a tab in my presenter file first? At the moment my glossary is completely standalone, and I have been hyperlinking to it by pasting it into the data folder after publishing.

How would that fire the glossary??
Hi Al
sorry a bit pushed yesterday, I put this together for you
Example 1
Thi shows three examples file attached, the links will break for linking to an external glossary just change the \ to / one of the exaple uses a widget from brian houle
Example 2
This is using a custom skin to load a glossary in the player, it really only replicatesb the tab functions
The last option is to go to elearningenhanced and purchase a glossary widget
Hope this helps

Phil,
I'm using option #1 listed above.
Pardon my ignorance, in toolbarBtn.xml, step 8 states "Find your toolbar module id...then type the name of your module"
What is the toolbar module id? module?
Thanks
Phil,
I think I figured it out. Thanks
Glad you sorted it
