Hi,

I have an odd situation with a button and its map area.

If I draw a rectangular graphic image to use as a button, round the corners, add a 1 pixel border and then use it as a link to another page, everything is as it should be.

If, without changing anything else, I add an outer glow to the graphic and republish, the map area is offset to the button - see the link example.

Am I doing something wrong and is there a workaround?

Thanks,

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

This looks like a bug. Can you send the Freeway file to support(a)[softpress.com](http://softpress.com), please?

Thanks,

Joe

Thanks for sending the file in. The problem you’re seeing has been fixed in Freeway 6.

Best,  
Joe
