1.2       raeburn     2: Starting with LON-CAPA 2.10, a Domain Coordinator can configure default 
                      3: settings for courses in the domain. Defaults are of two types:
1.1       raeburn     4: \begin{itemize}
1.5     ! raeburn     5: \item \textbf{Defaults that can be overridden in an individual course by a Course
        !             6: Coordinator using Settings -$>$ Course Settings -$>$ Display
        !             7: (``Display of resources'' checked)}

1.4       raeburn    10: 
                     11: \begin{itemize}
                     12: \item Student formula entry uses inline preview, not DragMath pop-up
                     13: 
                     14: For problems that require a formula input via a textbox, the default is to
                     15: show the math expression in a previewer below the textbox, as the student types.
                     16: The alternative is to use the older (Java-based) DragMath pop-up which allows 
                     17: the student to compose the expression in a WYSIWYG-style editor in a pop-up window
                     18: and then save it to the textbox in the main window using a ``Save and Close'' button.
                     19: 
                     20: \item Molecule editor uses JSME (HTML5) in place of JME (Java)
                     21: 
                     22: For problems that require the student to ``draw'' an organic structure using a
                     23: molecule editor, the default is to use the HTML5 version (JSME).  The alternative
                     24: is to use the older (Java-based) JME editor.
                     25: 
1.5     ! raeburn    26: \item Course requesters who may clone a course (besides course's owner and coordinators)
        !            27: 
        !            28: This can be set to no additional requesters, or to any course requester in the domain, or
        !            29: if categories have been defined in the domain for institutional codes for official courses
        !            30: (in localenroll::instcode_defaults), to categories which must match in new and cloned 
        !            31: courses (e.g., department and number).
        !            32:

1.2       raeburn    39: 
                     40: \begin{itemize}
                     41: \item responder count - number of responses needed before submissions made to 
                     42: anonymous surveys (with no identifying information) are viewable by Course personnel.
                     43: \item default course quotas - domain default for quotas (MB) for official, unofficial,
                     44: community, and textbook course types for content uploaded directly to the course.
                     45: \item default course credits - whether credits may be specified for courses (Yes/No),

                     48: 
                     49: The default is for the ``Submit Answer'' button in the current page to be disabled for 60s following
                     50: answer submission.  After processing a student's answer a new page is displayed. The setting 
                     51: to disable a  button, (with or without a timeout), applies to the button in the old page in
                     52: the time period before the new page is loaded by the browser.
