More options for "Show steps"

[chrismgraham]

We ran some sessions this week which heavily used the steps feature to offer an 'in' to questions. @Lycanic and I were pondering about why students don't seem to use them.

I had a couple of feature requests:

• Could there be the option to change the text? I would like to have the option to change to "Show hint" as most of the time I am using the feature for hints rather than steps
• Could the credit warning be optional? When I'm using questions in embedded handouts and the marks really aren't relevant, the message doesn't seem necessary. I appreciate that it might make it less clear when penalties are used though.
• I quite often have information parts with unmarked questions, where actually I'd like to give a hint. I wonder if information parts could allow information steps

Would it make sense not to show the "your score won't be affected" message when the part has zero marks available?

Could you use an extension part where you want to show some text and steps?
