LiveXtensions are utilities that help ToolBook users create content. As the name itself implies, these utilities ("extensions") are hosted live on the SumTotal web site.
LiveXtensions Interface
The Interface
You'll notice there are three tabs in the LiveXtensions.
-
LiveXtensions
This is a list of tools which are available only to customers with a current Technical Support subscription. To access this list you must first enter your Support ID Number. Once the number is validated the list of tools will be revealed for your future use.
-
Devex
This is a list of tools which were made available within ToolBook 2004 as Developers Exchange Tools. These tools are still available to all ToolBook users.
-
Imported Tools
If you create your own tool, or acquire a tool written by a third party, you can import the tool into the LiveXtensions and it will show up on this tab.
Launching the tools with a live Internet connection
Currently dozens of tools are provided by SumTotal Systems and are accessible through the Tools | LiveXtensions menu within ToolBook. View the complete Tools list.
These SumTotal provided tools are stored on the SumTotal web server. Therefore you must have an active Internet connection in order to access these remotely located Tools.
Launching the tools without a live Internet connection
If you want to use LiveXtensions on a computer which will not have regular access to the Internet, so that the tools are accessed from your own hard drive instead of from the SumTotal web site, you can use this approach.
Third Party Developed Tools
LiveXtensions can be created by anyone with a fundamental knowledge of the OpenScript programming language. Learn More.
| OPENSCRIPT NOTICE The OpenScript programming examples found in many articles may need modification in order to work in ToolBook 9.0 or higher, particularly if the article was written for an older version of ToolBook. To learn more, click here. |
