Box Content Map Settings

On the Delphinium page, in Teacher or Periscope View, click the Settings icon in the top right corner of the page

The "Settings" dialog will open.

Click the Components tab in the tab bar at the top of the Settings dialog. 

The “Component Settings” tab will be displayed. 

You will see your course navigation tabs mirrored in the "secondary tab bar". You may need to click the correct tab in the secondary tab bar to display the icon for the Box Content Map component you wish to edit.

"Component tiles" also includes a "Find Me" button—mouse over the Find Me button to make the tools menu transparent and outline the "component" for that "tile" in yellow. You can use these features to ensure that you are editing the correct settings for your target component.

Click the Box Content Map tile. 

The “Box Content Map Settings” dialog will display. 

Configure Box Content Map

The "Box Content Map" can be displayed as a "Grid" or "One Row" that slides left and right. Choose one of these options from the View drop down box and click save.

If you have created parent/child relationships in the module/assignment group meta-data settings, you can filter the box content map component to only show one branch of the parent/child tree using the Filter settings.

You can also Customize the View to:

• Show the Content Item Modal on hover

• Only activate animated background images on hover

• Zoom into static background images on hover

Add a Watermark Image to Boxes

A watermark image can be added behind each module title to make it more visually appealing or to indicate something about the module.

Use the "Module Meta-Data  Manager (click for details)" to add the image

Add Tabs to Organize Boxes

For courses with a large number of modules, it is sometimes useful to use "tabs" to organize them. Students can click a tab to view a different set of child modules. When the Delphinium page reloads, the "Boxes Content Map" will display the last tab the student was viewing in that browser.

Box Content Map Tabs are created using the "Module Meta-data Manager (click for details)". Review the following tasks in the "Module Meta-data Manager tutorial" before you continue:

• Add a Placeholder to the Module/Assignment Group List

• Make a Module the "Child" of Another Module

Tabs are created by making "level 1" placeholders and making modules/assignment groups their children. You add modules/assignment groups to a tab by making them "level 2" child modules to the "level 1" parent tab placeholders.

After reviewing the links above, follow these steps to create a tab and add modules to it:

1. Click the + Placeholder button to create a placeholder that will be displayed as a tab

   • Make the title of this placeholder the name you wish to be displayed on the tab

2. Click and drag other modules/assignment groups so that they become children to the "tab" placeholder, use the check boxes to select multiple rows at the same time and drag them together

3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for each tab

4. Click Save to refresh the page and view your tabs
