Adding or Editing Training Structure Items

generate/contentmenu_addstruct.gif

Use the Toolbar or the Content menu to add or edit the training structure for your lesson.

 

The editor is shown below. Training Structure items are settings that are not specific to a page of the training. Each is described at the end of this topic. Most of the items are text or tooltips for various options and labels. They are included to make it easy to customize your training or localize it into other languages. An example would be ExitBtn_Message. This is the message that is displayed when you click on the Exit button within the training. Other items are settings that control how your training works. For example, you can set the DisableMenu item to false if don't want the user to click on the menu button and see a popup list of page titles. You might do this for an exam to keep students from going out of sequence.

 

It is important not to delete items without a detailed understanding of how they are used in Training Studio. You are welcome to add new items for you to reference in your templates.

 

All items can be edited or localized (put into other languages) except for those that have a value or true or false. In that case, those should remain in English to work properly.

 

Closing this screen will automatically save the database. You can then save the training structure to XML for use by your training application.
