Scripty Accordion & formatting the items

Joe recommended ScriptyAccordion yesterday to do exactly what I need.

I take Walter’s comment about making the options clickable rather than
triggered by mouseover, it is more predictable for the user.

Just one thing, while Scripty is very easy to apply, I’d really like to
style the raw Scripty output!

Would someone mind pointing me in the right direction for getting the
styling sorted. I could not find anything relevant.

Cheers

Best wishes Peter

The easiest way to style the output is to simply select it and apply a
style. While the defaults are to have the headers as H2 and the body
of the accordion element as a P, you can choose any set of
different tags for this purpose. So you could use an image as the
header and a DIV (inline HTML box) as the body of the element. Or you
could use the Edit Style dialog to apply a bunch of extended style to
the H3 tag and have it look like a tab or a box, and then use a DIV
with a bunch of inline content for the body. Just be sure when you
apply your style that you have selected the entire header or the
entire body element.

I like what I see with Scripty/Accordion but what I REALLY want is the
same behavior BUT,
when I mouse over - I’d like it to reveal a fairly small, wide graphic
image that is hidden until the mouse over.

Is there a way to do this with Scripty/Accordion or is another Action
better suited for this purpose?

Thanks,
Rob

The ScriptyAccordion is a deliberately simplified “one trick pony”.
You could certainly build what you describe using the built-in
Softpress FX Actions, but it would take a bit more clicky-clicky work.
The whole point of SA was to take a frequently-requested end result
and make a one-step way to build it without requiring that each
element be extended with a separate Action.
