This menu is looks like a tool bar. It supports both a vertical and horizontal mode. Having many options to change colors, this menu is a very versatile Flash tool.

Setting Colors

In the Color tab, you can set the menu's colors such as the item text and background colors and the mouse over text 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 specify the text size (in pixels) and the font. This applet supports FFT files. You can also set the text alignment, maybe you prefer centered items?

Item Size and Space between items

The item size will set the size of the menu items. This parameter is important so make sure you set it correctly depending on the menu more. The space between the items can be set with the corresponding field.

Menu Mode

The menu mode will set your menu into vertical or horizontal mode. Note that you must adjust the Item size parameter for this to look well.

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.

Version history

1.1 : 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.
