XOT 2.0 Comma bug in Dialogue Page Template was created by david.perkins
We are fairly new to Xerte and are using XOT 2.0. We have found a bug on the Dialogue Page Type. If the answer you define (i.e. the reply) includes a comma, Xerte ignores everything after the comma. This means that end-users giving a perfectly correct answer, will receive the message 'Try again!'.

Is this a known bug and, if so, has it been resolved in 2.1?

Thanks
David

That's because you can give alternative answers, by default separated by ','.

In 2.1 (and I don't know whether 2.0 has this feature as well, I don't know when we introduced this) you can specify an alternative separation character like ';' or '|'. It is an optional parameter of the Dialog icon.

Brilliant! I know now I always need to explore the optional properties before shouting. Thanks so much for the quick reply!
