Hi There,
Just wondering if anyone can help? I’m designing a website and need similar horizontal image scroll to this example (http://www.ansonsmart.com/).
I’ve used the Scriptaculous/Protaculous Actions successfully - much thanks to this forum - to create similar effect, but am limited to the number of images that overflow to the pasteboard. Even though the pasteboard is set to almost maximum, the images are cut off at around 16400pixels.
Is there something I’m not doing? Or is there a way around this so I can get more images (lkike the website above) onto a customized scroll?
(Am using current FW pro Version…)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Why do you want such a long scrolling effect? It’s a pain to scroll
through - I gave up after a while - and the images take an age for
them all to load (I don’t think they ever did!). Do you really want to
show how good they are (and most are good; some of them are very good)
or just how many you’ve taken?!
IMHO I think it would be wiser to break them down into relevant groups
or target markets and use a shorter scroll. Bite size chunks that make
you want to go on to the next series.

Just to be a pain though, I’m still curious to know why there appears to be a limit on the width (around the 16400 pixel mark) for images/graphic content on the pasteboard?
is it a FW thing and/or is there a way around it (hypothetically speaking)??

Not even worth thinking about
With a page of over 21Mb and a load time here of 4.5 minutes your viewers have left the building after 30 secs - as Colin suggests, break it down into smaller chunks or smaller pics with a link to a lightbox/new page or something.
Even working on the FW doc must be a nightmare with all that sideways scrolling - just not natural.
