Activities/Portfolio: Difference between revisions

Line 11:

When running the activity, use the ◀ and ▶ buttons to step one-by-one through the slide show. Use the autoplay button to start/pause a slide show. The delay between slides can be controlled by the interval chosen in the combo box. (The default is 10 seconds.)

~~Note~~ that the colors used in the background are taken from the XO colors of the user.

Did you know that:

* the colors used in the background are taken from ''the XO colors of the user'';

* a warning is displayed if there are ''no starred entries'' in your Journal;

* the slide show can be ''saved as an HTML document'' that can be shared; and

* in the thumbnail view, you can ''reorder your slides'' (by dragging them).

~~As of Version 3, a warning is displayed if there are no starred entries in your Journal.~~

As of ~~Version 4,~~ the slide show can ~~be saved~~ as an HTML ~~document that can be shared~~.
