Support Case Month: July 2012

Hello:

I am trying to get more button height, I don’t want any white space between buttons.

When I set the size (height) to something over 29, it looks like the button RIGHT images is NOT changing (getting wider)?

Anything I am missing?

  Please Advise

Hello,

I am afraid that none of the images is automatically resized when you change the item size. The difference between these images is that the “Background Tile Image” is tiled, while the “
Background Image 1 & 2” are just centered. So behind the “left” image you actually see the Tile image:

This will be much clearer if you increase the height even more (say to 45px).

If you want to make the menu taller, I guess you should select a different theme that is taller, or you could change the images to enlarge them yourself in a graphic editor.

Initial Email Subject: Modal Windows - Using Background Image
Support Case Month: July 2012

I am using Modal Windows.  I am trying to load a Background Image that uses a Gradient.  It is not appearing the proper way.  The prior background color is still showing even though it has been removed.  Is there any problem using a gradient in WebModal?

Thanks,
Bob

Dear Bob,

There should not be a problem with gradient background in a modal window. Does this not even work in the preview? Are you sure your CSS code is correct? (I am asking because the gradient background requires a pretty complex CSS which is different for each browser.)

Can you please send me your Modal project so that I can have a look?

The gradient is actually an image file, so I am just trying to set the background image.

Then the most likely problem is that the image is not in the correct place online. If you send me the URL of an example page I can test this for you.

Initial Email Subject: Individual colors for background of main item buttons
Support Case Month: October 2012

I need to customize individual buttons background colors for main items to match the colors in their logo. I can change the background  on all of the buttons but that will not work for the individual buttons. Any help greatly appreciated.

Dear Dave,

You can do this by adding customized style values to each item. First click on “All Values” to see the values that can be customized, then change what you want. (“Custom Values” will only show the customized values)

Dear Dave,

Having another look at your project file, I noticed that this is image-based. So it does not have a background color, but a background image instead:

In this case you have to change the Background Image Set:

If you do not find something you like in the existing sets, you can also create your own images and change them individually (i.e. not as a set) there.

Just keep in mind that you have to use images that have the same height in order to prevent the menu from “breaking”.

You could also open the currently used images in a graphic editor and make a copy with different colors. (you will find them in the compiled folder)

Thanks for the info. I will work on that.

I was looking at your Button Maker and it looks like there are some template pieces that look like it would be the same format as the ones I am using. Might be able to use that also..

Reply From: Likno Customer Support

Indeed, Button Maker has several templates that you could use as a background for your menu items.

The only thing you have to keep in mind is that (due to the nature of these buttons) the Button Maker images have a fixed width (which you set), so you do not use them as a “set” but as “Background Image 1” only, setting the “tile image” and “image 2” to “none”.

Initial Email Subject: Can I create me own design on Modal-Window
Support Case Month: September 2012

Dear Kosta!

Just a question to Modal-Window. Can I create my own designs? In the examples there are not really designs I can use on my webpages. I do not mean the background-image.

Thanks

Regards
Michael

Reply From: Likno Customer Support

Dear Michael,

I am not sure exactly what you mean. I guess you can change anything related to the modal appearance from the related CSS fields of each area (Modal Window, Header, Body, Footer).

Everything is under the Style Editor:

Is this what you wanted? If not, please explain in more detail, or send me a design that you like and I can hint you on how to achieve this with our program.

YES Thank you!!!

Hello!

We have released a new version of AllWebMenus Pro: Version 5.3 build #890.

Check out What's New:

- Added the "Image Sets" feature. "Image Sets" are multiple images applied "as a whole" on certain image properties, such as the item's Background images (Item Background Image 1, Item Background Tile Image, Item Background Image 2) for each of the 3 states ("Normal", "Mouse Over", "Mouse Click").

- 20 "Images Sets" added to choose from:

- Fixed a case where a conflict was caused in XSitePro between AllWebMenus and the XSitePro menu engine.

- Fixed an issue with a Visual Studio Local Server where you could end up with a duplicate slash in the URL and get a "page not found" error.

- Fixed a case where the "Relative to Image" positioning method did not work properly in some IE versions.

All features here: http://www.likno.com/allwebmenusinfo.html
