Added SxS.manifest files to the installation package to use
Microsoft
Side-by-side assembly
technology. this technology allows the OCX files to be used
without having to register them with the operating system. So
far all test on XP, Win 7 and Win 8 machines have shown this to
be an effective method for the use of these controls without
registering them and hence use MCQC from a USB pen drive on a
machine that has never had TPIM installed on it. There are no
more system registry settings and hence both the quiz program
and the editor program are effectively 'stand-alone'.
1)
Removed the ability to be able to change the size of text in the
editor for different paragraphs or words in a question or answer
box. Changing the size of the text for a highlighted selection,
changes the size of all the text in the whole textbox. This is
to allow for better display of the text in the Quiz program
which will now automatically resize the text for each question
and answer based on how much of it there is and the display size
available to the software.
2)
when used on a system with a screen resolution greater or equal
to 1024 x 768 the software will no longer attempt to change the
screen display size, it just resizes itself to fit the screen
keeping the controls in proportion to each other.
3) added the ability to be
able to format characters / words with a highlighter in order to
stand out even further in the question or answers.
4) Replaced the
menu item to insert - equation editor (which was never available
anyway) with FX
Equation 4 as this equation editor allows you to change the
colour of the font used whereas the microsoft equation editor
could not be changed from a black colour font which meant that
it could not be seen on screen after it was embedded.
5) Added the ability to make
the whole quiz program look/feel and sound like the classic
version. Start the quiz program and select 'Options' menu then
'Settings'. On the general tab select to load settings from a
disk file and then choose the classic settings file. Move to the
Sound tab, enable all sound if it is disabled, then select the
'Classic' theme.
