When the first elements of my page load no scroll bars appear. When I click my first Rollover, the right (vertical) scroll bar appears. It adds about 18px of vertical space (as estimated from the scroll bar). However, the new graphic is within the same space. Doing a reveals nothing, nor are there any items listed in the Page View that don’t belong.
Any ideas of what is adding the vertical space?

I’ve isolated the problem — but don’t have a solution.
I’ve added the Sound FX action to my presentation ‘advance’ button. While I can add an value for a plain old mp3 file, the Extended Attributes differ for an ![]()
that uses the Sound FX action.
The mp3 file that Sound FX plays correctly, but FP is adding space for the nonexistent controller. How do I set the Controller to “False” in this case?

Have you tried a .wav instead?

.wav does the same thing (as does .mov and any other file type). Besides I’m trying to keep my files small. WAV files are roughly 5.5 times larger than mp3.
The issue is definitely related to the Sound FX action. More precisely the fact that I can’t find a way to write an to a graphics file.
The shifting scroll bar isn’t a problem with the first .mp3 file I load since I’ve simply dragged it into the page and let it play on page load. Setting Controller to “false” works like a charm as a PlugIn.

I see the problem but the code written should mean that nothing appears and with 0 height. This one is beyond me.
<embed style="height:0" id="sound_global_0" src="Resources/abxt.wav" loop="false" autostart="true" hidden="true">
Only thing I could suggest is writing some CSS for ‘sound_global_0’ but I suspect that you may have several of these that need the same treatment.

Writing code is something I’m not fond of.
From what I can tell, dragging an audio file onto a FP page creates an element type of “PlugIn” whereas the Item Action of Sound FX is attached to a “Graphic Item.”
How do I get the code above into the Extended… ![]()
for the graphic item using Sound FX?

The code above IS the code that FW has written for that element.
I have just tried some CSS to get this to work but it appears that the only code that stops the invisible controller from creating the scrollbars also stops the sound from playing. display:none
I think an email to support(@)softpress.com is your next step. Sorry.

I just don’t know enough about the action and how it works…
I am sure that Joe B will sort you out.
