Great.

I like the speed of the tabs.  eg.  http://keith-wood.name/relationships.html

So I presume no way to link directly to a specific tab?

I may tinker with the formatting.  Thanks for the link Justin.

Aside: two levels of navigation

I think there is something fundamental about "Two levels" inside a navigation architecture.  This is a comment from the docs on the Book module:


I think Sections > Tabs has proved quite versatile for some of my recent work.

It is not quite there yet for regular teachers for rapid deployment of content - or those who are a little impatient.  Too much scrolling and finding the right place to add content.

One thing I now do is insert dashes to get this effect to provide a little visual structure:

{GENERICO:type="tabitem",title="Overview"-----------------------------------------------}
OrientedAllan.mp4  
{GENERICO:type="tabitem_end"++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++}

It is really really good to deploy a lot of videos: one per tab, with for instance a short activity underneath.  It provides really good structure for something like an assignment with multi parts.  Not quite like the book that means you loose all course navigation.

I presume somewhere there is a format that has sections within sections.

Two options are available to make this two level navigation really hum:

  1. Course menu plus Generico tabs. https://moodle.org/plugins/view/block_course_menu
  2. OneTopic format plus tabs Generico https://moodle.org/plugins/view/format_onetopic

I'll post links if there is interest.
