Back Image
Controls the image that appears as a background for the group.
Note: there is no way to control the size of the image. It
will be tiled to cover the whole space occupied by the group.
Compatibility notes
Netscape
Navigator 4 may have problems displaying non-JPG
images in the background. |
Live Preview
Allows you to see how the selected item will appear in your browser.
The Live Preview is updated at the same time you make changes to your items. That way, you always know how your menus will appear without having to go through the process of compiling your project or even previewing.
When a group is selected, the Live Preview shows how the background of the menu will appear. If the toolbar option is selected, the preview will show how the actual toolbar hotspot will appear.
When a command is selected, the Live Preview shows how the selected command will appear against its parent group.
Borders: Images
Controls the color of the borders that
surround the group.
To change the image of a border, click the border and then click
the Change button.
The state of each border is represented by a color:
|
|
No image assigned |
|
|
Selected, but no image assigned |
|
|
Image is assigned |
|
|
Selected, and image assigned |
The use of images in the four corners is optional. When a corner
is left without an image, its space will be covered by the image
from one of the closest main border.
Compatibility notes
Netscape
Navigator 4 may have problems displaying non-JPG
images in the four main borders.
When using images in the borders of a group, Netscape Navigator 4
will not display the border color, although the size of the
border will be taken into consideration to render the menu.
In the Opera browser, submenus will appear incorrectly aligned when
using images in the borders.
Under some circumstances, the Live Preview will not
display the borders properly.
When using images in the borders, the Live Preview can
considerably slow down DHTML Menu Builder's performance. |
The Scope Selector
This advanced control will let you select which item or items
should receive the styles on the dialog.
By default, only the selected item will receive the style
changes, however you can choose from a variety of options to apply
the same style changes to a set of menu items all at once.
