Hi there,
Hope everyone is OK.
I wasn't happy with this
and had a chat with Ai to get this
Is there an easy way to get this done automatically? I mean have the columns with the minimum height by default?
I guess it involves modifying files in Addons_Agnes_V7\JMSort\JMS_210\source_JMS?
Thx a lot.
Rodolphe

Hi Rodolphe,
I'm very impressed by what AI can do: it clearly understood my code
since it reuses the same variables, modifying their content according to
your requests.
I can show you how to modify djmatch7.js_ to incorporate the changes
suggested by the AI, but it will only work for this specific example
because the AI simply made it work according to your wishes, but it
cannot be transposed.
For example, the AI didn't take into account the fact that the height
and width of the category boxes are linked to the number of items per row.
If we modify the htm file to request a smaller height and/or more items
per row, it will overflow everywhere.
I'm thinking about a more general solution. Be patient!
Cheers,
Agnès S.

Hi Agnès,
Thank you for your quick reply..
If it is only me,do not bother. We now have Moodle in secondary education (called ELEA), and unfortunately, scorm packages generated by Hot Potatoes do not work great.
The only thing that does work to include an elaborate Hot Potatoes file (virtual pagination for example)( is the File activity, in which we can upload the htm file alongside with all its dependencies (audio, image, css). But the students' results won't be retrieved.
So, I mainly create with H5P now, which is not my first choice I must admit.
This may make you smile.Let me know if you want the whole conversation with AI.
Cheers.
Rodolphe

Hi Rodolphe,
It doesn't bother me.
I think this could be an improvement to JMS.
And I like to give my brain cells a little bit of exercise — it might
keep them in shape. Everyone has their own way of relaxing: some people
do crossword puzzles, I code in JavaScript.
It seems to me that only version 6 of Hot Potatoes works with Moodle. We
have been waiting for years for version 7 to be taken into account, and
I'm not sure it will ever happen...
So Hot Potatoes 7 can only be used for training, which isn't so bad.
Cheers,
Agnès S.
