This single level menu will put items on top of a background image, which will fade in when you move the mouse across an item. Thus resulting in a beauthiful effect! It supports many options such as logo images and top text. The menu colors You have three text colors in this menu. One is for the top text (above the menu items), one is for the menu items themselves and the third is used for the menu items when you move the mouse pointer over them. The page marker bar color will color the top rectangle in which the top text is located. You also have a background color. Adding menu items and URLs Enter each menu item and its corresponding URL into their respective text field. Make sure you have the same number of menu items as you have URLs. See the section Entering Text Or Files for more information about entering menu items. Fonts You can here specify the text size for the menu items, the text size for the top text (in pixels) and the font file. This applet supports FFT files. Top text settings You can set the top text for the menu and it's scroll speed (with the Scroll Speed setting). Specifying Images You can specify a menu image for the applet. Parts of the image will fade in when you move the mouse pointer across an item. The fade delay setting will affect the background image fading speed. You can set a top image (logo image) and bottom image too, which will affect the position of the items. Note that this menu also supports a background image, which will override the background color. The top and bottom images will overwrite this background image, if set. Limitations Due to a limitation in Flash Player 5.0, you can have a maximum of 200 menu items in the Flash applet. More than that, and the applet will not work. Other settings There are other settings that are discussed on the following topics from the Advanced Effect Maker documentation: Entering Text Or Files Working With Text Fields The Flash Applet Size Parameters URL Links and Frame Targets Working With File Fields And File Lists Working With Color Buttons Compression Ratios for images Working with fonts Working With Time Delays and Pauses
Version history 1.1 : A bug was fixed which resulted in a very small line of the background image was showing in the right corner of the effect.
