Logos 5.1 Beta 5

Logos 5.1 Beta 5 (5.1.0.0895) was released on April 29, 2013.

New Features

Media Resources
- Implemented saving and syncing the last positon played to in audio and video resources.
Personal Book Builder
- Added ability to create a text input box.
  - To create a text input box use the syntax {{ input id=IDENTIFIER | type=text | lines=number | width=number | prompt=“text” }}
  - ‘input id = IDENTIFIER’ is mandatory. The identifier value of the id attribute must be uppercase, start with a letter, and may consist of letters, numbers, underscores, hyphens, and periods. It must be unique within the resource. (See Known Issues).
  - ‘lines=number’ is optional. This controls the vertical size of the text box, in whole number line-heights. Default is 1.
  - ‘width=number’ is optional. This controls the horizontal size of the text box, in whole number character-widths. Note: you can only specify either lines or width. If both are given then the compiler will use lines and ignore width.
  - ‘prompt=“text”’ is optional. This may be used to specify text that will be displayed in the text box until the user inputs something (See Known Issues).
