Would like to use the BAM as per the example page and for each menu to align beneath the active headings Introduction, About etc. Using the example for the drop down menu ‘Experience’ i am unable to resolve the following problem.
Using the x & y values in the BAM action control I can alter the position of the background but the submenus are not affected by this control and they remain positioned in line with ‘experience’.
Altering the values in the CSS action for the main and submenus does not appear to overcome this.
I am sure its something obvious but any ideas will be much appreciated.
Thanks.
Thanks and yes exactly like the example.
However I am still puzzled as to how and what is used to control the position of the submenu. Have studied the FW file and the only difference i can see, between my FW file and your example, is that the individual submenus, in your example, show up in the inspector with a CSS button ticked. My FW file does not have this but is that the difference between Fw5.5 and FW 6.1.2 which i’m running?
I’m missing something here but cannot figure out what it is…
Tks, Stuart
You should always install an Action rather than rely on Freeway’s object cache to do that for you. Many (most?) Actions work just fine either way, but if you come across a bundled Action, which combines multiple files into a “single thing that looks like a file”, you will be very sad, and Freeway will either silently make a hash of your page, or you won’t be able to publish the file because of errors.
A new page in the same document will have it available – that’s the thing that trips people up in this area. Even a new page in a new document while that other document is open. Freeway is very generous that way, right up until you find yourself over the guard rail, staring at the water below as you fall, screaming.

Would it be better to download and install the action?
Yes because a new page you create will not have the action available to it.
Hi Walter,
Version 1.5 of the BAM Action contains options to position the sub menu making the Sub Menu Position Action somewhat redundant. Had I remembered this yesterday I would have suggested Stuart update the BAM Action rather than add another Action into the mix.

Tim.
