I have two graphics (snowflakes) that I’d like to make flurry on the page, but only one appears. Action settings are identical. Is there a limit to how much you can have flurrying on a page?
2 Upload the file “snowstorm.js” to your server at the same level as your Page that will have snow on it.
3 - no step 3 - your are finished. Upload and preview.
You can edit the snowstorm.js file to change some of the parameters if you dont like the default setup. The file is quite clear about what section does what but if you are editing use a plain text editor.
In Freeway if you look to the left hand side of your document window you should see the site panel. At the foot of this panel is a little ‘gear’ icon. Click on this and select ‘Show Items’. The items on your page should now appear in the list. Locate the layered item you are using as the snowflake and drag it in the site panel all the way down until it is the last item listed for the page. This increases the item’s z-index and will display the item above all others when animated.
Regards,
Tim.

But the snow disappears in the back, if the html or grafic items I use are layers, which is true for 100% at my clients websites.
Meanwhile I found out how to make it. Just set the snowStorm.zIndex to a higher value, which will make the snow sit on top of other absolutely-positioned elements.
snowStorm.zIndex = 10;
… works for me. Just change the value at the loaded “snowstorm.js” and that`s it. Nice effects! Cheers!
