####Background image shrinkage
The ddmarker question type will shrink the background image of your questions to be within a maximum size and width while at the
time preserving aspect ratio of the image. The default max width is 600 pixels and height 400 pixels.
The ddmarker question type will shrink the background image of your questions to
be within a maximum size and width while at the time preserving aspect ratio of
the image. The default max width is 600 pixels and height 400 pixels.
The ddmarker question type does this whenever you edit a question and save it again.
Unfortunately when you open up a question to edit it this means that if the image is to big it will be shrunk but at present the
position of your drop zones are not moved to compensate for this shrinkage. There won't be a problem until you try to edit and save

you try to edit and save a question but when you open it in the editor the drop

####Work around for background image shrinkage
Either :
Either:
* do not edit questions which have sizes above the allowed max.
* or you can change the allowed maximum size of images there are two constant at the top of question/type/ddmarker/questiontype.php
that define the size limits.
* or you can change the allowed maximum size of images there are two constant at
the top of question/type/ddmarker/questiontype.php that define the size limits.
The limit is just there to shrink outrageously large images down to a reasonable size automatically. You could set the value of the
constants defining the max size to a very large value to effectively disable the image size constraints all together.

####Lack of drag label in imagetarget questions
Normally each draggable marker in the ddmarker question type has a text label. There are no labels for the imagetarget markers
though, I needed to pick something that will work in any language as the label for the single imagetarget draggable marker
so I picked 'X'.

####Work around for lack of drag label in imagetarget questions
Your teachers can edit this label after the question has been created. And they might also like to take advantage of the ability in
the ddmarker question type to be able to specify the correct drop zones for more than one drag marker onto the same image,
giving each drag marker a different label.

####No automatic feedback telling the user whether they got the question right, partially right or wrong.
In the imagetarget question you get a text message telling the user whether they got the question correct, partially correct or
wrong. In many of the new question types in Moodle 2.1 onwards the teacher is expected to enter the message that the user will
see in the question definition. This is called 'combined feedback' and by default it is blank. So questions that have been
converted from per 2.1 Moodle, from imagetarget question types that used to give some feedback to the user will no longer do so.
