Description

Hi, I was testing the new paged quizz feature and some ideas have arrived to improve it:

  • Add some tooltip to navigation (pages) buttons.
  • Use some color schema to show to the student answered/unanswered questions.
  • Change a bit the First, Previous, Next and Last images, being more standard with the rest of Moodle.

Not critical, but interesting, I think.

I think the same about the buttons and like your other ideas too. I'm thinking proper web form submit buttons ... any objections?

Not from me!

I believe this should use the standard paging bar from weblib.php. Then if someone wants to improve that one it will benefit all of moodle. However I think it is quite adequate as it is.

I have added Henrik to this bug because he wrote this navigation feature.

Uhm,

recently I wrote an 'alternative' page bar for the glossary. It should be 100% compatible with the standard one plus some improvements. Perhaps we could add some new parameter to it to allow colors and reuse it in the quiz?

Perhaps is could substitute the standard one at all?

From Martin Dougiamas (martin at moodle.com) Saturday, 29 January 2005, 01:15 AM:

It can't use the standard one, because that works one by one .. Henrik's navigation list of pages is somewhat better for this quiz purpose because it shows the question range per page.

The buttons could still improvement though.

From Gustav Delius (gwd2 at york.ac.uk) Saturday, 29 January 2005, 02:06 AM:

Good point. It is indeed nice to see the question ranges instead of the page numbers as in the standard bar. However apart from this change it could and should look exactly like the standard one and any improvement that goes into the quiz bar should also go into the standard one. Perhaps the standard one could even get an optional parameter that determines whether it shows page numbers or entry ranges.

For the time being I just made the paging bar look like the standard one even though it isn't using the same code.

Can someone please check that the way I use CSS to style the toolbar is correct and gives theme creators enough control. Eventually the same styles should be used for the standard toolbar.
