[Pro] how do they do that?

Hi everyone,
just wondering how this is done:

I mean the way the background layers move when I move my cursor over the white middle section. And more importantly: can it be done in Freeway?

They’re using jQuery, specifically the jparallax library.

If you decide to use that, just be aware that you can’t use any of the Freeway native FX actions or anything that adds a fade or other effect along with it, because you have to pick one JavaScript library and work with it, and Freeway uses Prototype + Scriptaculous for its effects.

You could probably do something like this in Freeway using the Protaculous Action. You’d need to write the function to observe the cursor and move the layers, though. As another idea, have a look on http://scripteka.com and see if anyone has made a parallax effect for Prototype.
