\label{Course_Prefs_Display}
This panel lets you set various display options for content.
\begin{itemize}
\item Default XML style sheet
\item Visibly Separate Items on a Page
\item Disable Display of Problem Receipts
\item Force use of a specific math rendering engine
\item Set default options for $<$m$>$ tags when
converting \LaTeX{} to html.
\item Student formula entry uses inline preview, not DragMath pop-up
\item Molecule editor uses JSME (HTML5) in place of JME (Java)
\item Chemical reaction response uses inline preview, not pop-up
Style files (.sty extension) created in Authoring Space and published to the shared content pool
can be selected for use when rendering resources in the course by clicking the
\underline{Select Style File} link. See the ``Resource Types'' item in the ``Introduction to LON-CAPA
Authoring'' section in the Authoring manual for more information about .sty files. An alternative to
the use of .sty files is to create a CSS file (.css extension) in Authoring Space, and publish to the shared content pool. Note: in this case you would use a problem parameter ``CSS file to link (cssfile)'', accessed via Content Settings, instead of Course Settings, to apply the style to resource(s) in your course.
Composite Pages include two or more resources on a single web page. By selecting ``Yes'' for
visible separation, adjacent resources will be separated by a horizontal rule.
Problem Receipts will be displayed by default when feedback on correctness is being displayed to a student, and the student has submitted the correct solution. See the ``Verify a Submission Receipt Number'' section (\ref{Grade_Verify}).
If ``Force use of a specific math rendering engine'' is set to none, then the math display mechanism used to render LaTeX within <m></m> tags is determined in the following order, with the first one set being the one in effect:
\begin{enumerate}
\item User's own personal preference set by the user hovering over the user's name at top left of a LON-CAPA page, and selecting Preferences $>$ Math display settings
\item Domain default set by a Domain Coordinator
\item System default set for the LON-CAPA version installed on the server (tth in 2.11 and earlier)
\end{enumerate}
This can be overriden by setting the attribute display to one of \textbf{MathJax},
\textbf{mimetex} (i.e., Convert to Images) or
\textbf{tth} (i.e., TeX to HTML) which will force a specific display mechanism.
The behavior of the textboxes where students enter either an algebraic formula (formularesponse) or a chemical reaction (reactionresponse) is inherited from settings in the domain. The default, in the absence of a specific domain setting, is to use an inline preview which appears below the textbox, as the expression is typed. The domain default can be overridden within a specific course if it is preferred to use the old pop-up window displays in either case.
Similarly, the the molecular editor display will use the domain setting, unless overridden within a specific course. If nothing is explicitly set in the domain or the course, then the default is to use JSME instead of its JME predecessor.
