Setting Colors

Here you can set the colors for the background, the item text, the highlight and sub items.

Adding menu items and URLs

It is very important that you read the section Working With Tree Fields in the VAC manual. This section tells you how to include the menu items and how to use the tree field.

Adding Images

You can specify one image for each main item. The main items will automatically be displaced a bit when you do this. You can also specify one icon image to be used for all the sub items.

Font

Here you can configure the size of the font for the items, and the type of font to be used. You can set this for both the main and sub items. This applet support FFT font files.

Item Area Width and Height

Version history

1.2 : Added support for the ActionScript LoadMovie() command, which means that the effect can now be inserted into Macromedia Flash FLA projects. You can now load other .swf files or disable the links by entering empty links.

1.1 : A bug that prevented more than 10 sub items to appear has been fixed.
