[Pro] Graphic Rollovers - HELP!

Hello everyone,

I have been away from Freeway since 4 Pro, and although I have successfully done graphic rollovers in the past - I cannot seem to this new one working.

There are four navigation buttons on the left side of my page, and four across the top. They are all JPG graphic files, and I have a second file for each (blog, blog2, etc).

Some questions that may clarify things for me.

  1. Do I need to put both images for the button on the page?

  2. If so, do I just tuck the rollover image under the regular one?

  3. I saw on another post that these must be grouped, but is that something I do before setting the rollover action?

Right now, I have tried it grouped – and even though every file on the Master is equal in hierarchy, the rollover gets assigned to the top file (despite it having nothing to do with that file)!

Someone please help me, and shed some light on this process.

Thank you!
Jason

Okay, I have figured out the source of my grief - but I cannot figure out how to fix it.

I have a back ground image behind the buttons. When I move that image, so that it is no longer behind the buttons and preview in the browser - the rollovers work great.

As soon as I return the background image to its proper location behind the buttons, the rollovers stop working in the browser.

What is the issue here? Is Freeway seeing the background image as part of the ‘stack’?

Please help me find the fix for this!

Peace,
Jason

Here is an alternate method of creating rollovers - your problem is being caused by combining graphics. Combining with the base graphic screws it up.

I SO wanted to view that deltadesign link above… the page is gone! David, is it still around anywhere? I would love the alternate method of creating rollovers. I spent HOURS trying to get mine to work this week.
