adapt-contrib-hotgraphic

Hot Graphic is a presentation component bundled with the Adapt framework.

When a learner clicks on a hot spot within the image, a pop-up is displayed that consists of text with an image. Visit the Hot Graphic wiki for more information about its functionality and for explanations of key properties.

Installation

As one of Adapt's core components, Hot Graphic is included with the installation of the Adapt framework and the installation of the Adapt authoring tool.

• If Hot Graphic has been uninstalled from the Adapt framework, it may be reinstalled. With the Adapt CLI installed, run the following from the command line:
  adapt install adapt-contrib-hotgraphic

  Alternatively, this component can also be installed by adding the following line of code to the adapt.json file:
  "adapt-contrib-hotgraphic": "*"
  Then running the command:
  adapt install
  (This second method will reinstall all plug-ins listed in adapt.json.)

• If Hot Graphic has been uninstalled from the Adapt authoring tool, it may be reinstalled using the Plug-in Manager.

Settings Overview

The attributes listed below are used in components.json to configure Hot Graphic, and are properly formatted as JSON in example.json. Visit the Hot Graphic wiki for more information about how they appear in the authoring tool.

Attributes

core model attributes: These are inherited by every Adapt component. Read more.

_component (string): This value must be: hotgraphic. (One word.)

_classes (string): CSS class name to be applied to Hot Graphic’s containing div. The class must be predefined in one of the Less files. Separate multiple classes with a space.

_layout (string): This defines the horizontal position of the component in the block. Acceptable values are full, left or right.

instruction (string): This optional text appears above the component. It is frequently used to guide the learner’s interaction with the component.

mobileBody (string): This is optional text that will be substituted for body when Adapt.device.screenSize is small (i.e., when viewed on mobile devices).

mobileInstruction (string): This is optional text that will be substituted for instruction when Adapt.device.screenSize is small (i.e., when viewed on mobile devices).

_setCompletionOn (string): This value determines when the component registers as complete. Acceptable values are "allItems" and "inview". "allItems" requires each pop-up item to be visited. "inview" requires the Hot Graphic component to enter the view port completely.

_canCycleThroughPagination (boolean): Enables the pop-ups to be cycled through endlessly using either the previous or next icon. When set to true, clicking "next" on the final stage will display the very first stage. When set to false, the final stage will display only a "previous" icon. The default is false.

_hidePagination (boolean): When set to true, hides the "previous" and "next" icons and progress indicator (e.g., "1/5") on the pop-up's toolbar. The default is false.

_useGraphicsAsPins (boolean): If set to true, the image specified by _graphic.src will be ignored and the popup images specified in _items[n]._graphic.src will instead be laid out in a grid system as defined by the classes in hotgraphic.less. See example.json for a working example. The default is false.

_graphic (string): The main image that appears below the hot spots. It contains values for src and alt.

src (string): File name (including path) of the image. Path should be relative to the src folder (e.g., course/en/images/origami-menu-two.jpg).

alt (string): This text becomes the image’s alt attribute.

attribution (string): Optional text to be displayed as an attribution. By default it is displayed below the image. Adjust positioning by modifying CSS. Text can contain HTML tags, e.g., Copyright © 2015 by <b>Lukasz 'Severiaan' Grela</b>.

_items (string): Multiple items may be created. Each item represents one hot spot for this component and contains values for title, body, _graphic and _pin.

title (string): This is the title text for a hot spot pop-up.

_ariaLevel (number): Aria level for the title.

body (string): This is the main text for a hot spot pop-up.

_graphic (string): The image that appears as a hot spot. Its location is controlled by _top and _left. It contains values for src and alt.

src (string): File name (including path) of the image. Path should be relative to the src folder (e.g., course/en/images/origami-menu-two.jpg).

alt (string): This text becomes the image’s alt attribute.

attribution (string): Optional text to be displayed as an attribution. By default it is displayed below the image. Adjust positioning by modifying CSS. Text can contain HTML tags, e.g., Copyright © 2015 by <b>Lukasz 'Severiaan' Grela</b>.

_classes (string): CSS class name to be applied to the hotgraphic-graphic-pin element when component is in _useGraphicsAsPins mode. The class must be predefined in one of the Less files. Separate multiple classes with a space.

_pin (string): Optional image that can appear instead of the default pin icon. It contains values for src and alt.

src (string): File name (including path) of the image. Path should be relative to the src folder (e.g., course/en/images/origami-menu-two.jpg).

alt (string): This text becomes the pin image’s alt attribute.

strapline (string): This text is displayed when Adapt.device.screenSize is small (i.e., when viewed on mobile devices). It is presented in a title bar above the image.

_classes (string): CSS class name to be applied to the hot spot popup item. The class must be predefined in one of the Less files. Separate multiple classes with a space.

_top (number): Each hot spot must contain _top and _left coordinates to position them on the hot graphic. Enter the number of pixels this hot spot should be from the top border of the main graphic.

_left (number): Enter the number of pixels this hot spot should be from the left border of the main graphic.

Accessibility

Hot Graphic has two elements assigned a label using the aria-label attribute: ariaRegion and ariaPoupupLabel. These labels are not visible elements. They are utilized by assistive technology such as screen readers. Should the label texts need to be customised, they can be found within the globals object in properties.schema.

Limitations

When viewport size changes to the smallest range, this component will behave like a Narrative component. All information will remain available but formatted as a narrative rather than as hot spots on a graphic.
