I have used the Photo Frame Action extensively with previous versions of Freeway, but now that I am working with 6.0 I can no longer find it. So, assuming that this Action is still installed in a previous version somewhere, how do I find it, and how do I import it to v 6.0.
Many thanks

There is also Walter’s infamous site:
Where you’ll find almost everything you’ll need for FW ;~}}

Photo Frame is listed and accessible as an Action in FW 5, but although I have right clicked for “Show Package Contents” for every version of 5 which I still have installed I cannot locate Photo Frame, so any advice please as to where it might be located.
Many thanks

It is part of the Graphics Fast Pack - a core FW action and doesn’t appear as Photo Frame per se
I think what you are looking for is contained within Graphics.fwactionb
However I believe a lot of the functionality of the Fast Pack was added into FW.
What feature(s) did you want to utilise?

Hi Dave,
Thanks for the answer. If you have a look at this little Cornish Holiday WebSite,<lankidden.com> you will see that all the images have a “softened” outline, created within Freeway by the “Photo Frame” Action. For my sins, I quite like this effect, it was certainly included within FW 5, and AFAIR, within Freeway 4 as well, which means that it is still installed somewhere within those versions, but not in any way which I can find to access it. I would like to continue using it within FW 6, but it simply does nor appear within the Graphics Actions list.

Yes - as part of the Graphics Fast Pack
Here is something similar using just the settings in the Graphics section of the inspector

I dont think that you really want to recreate your original effect as it certainly is looking dated.

Hi Dave,
Thanks again for the replies. I like the effect of the CSS3 Actions, and I have downloaded them via ActionForge, and installed them into FW 6. So far however I have not been able to create the corner effect on a test graphic. So is there some activation which I have missed, or is a Download fee required by ActionForge to enable an activation? I have been working with the same graphic you used for your test examples.
Thanks again

I can assure you that there is no fee needed for any of the Actions in the Forge that allow you to download directly. There are a few Actions in the Forge that are not free, but they are the extreme minority.
Actions are context-sensitive, though. If you don’t have the correct type of content selected at the moment that you try to apply one, you will not succeed. In order to use any of these CSS3 Actions, you must be selecting a layered HTML or graphic item. Click once on an HTML box or a graphic box (so the corner handles appear) and look in the first tab of the Inspector. Make sure that the Layer checkbox is checked, and if you don’t see a Layer checkbox, ensure that the CSS checkbox is checked (this applies to inline elements). If your layout is table-based, you won’t be able to apply these Actions at all, at least not until you convert those elements to layers (absolute positioning) or inline HTML elements (relative positioning).
