I’m trying to create a subtle little effect on one of my intro pages and so far the best way I’ve found is with the TransitionFX action. However …
I have 3 text boxes and I would like the effect to load on them consecutively from left to right. So; page loads, effect 1, then effect 2, then effect 3. One after the other.
The idea is to add a small visual hint, to a page which highlights the slideshow controls. (I’ve found that people don’t really notice the controls or how to use them, so I’m trying to give a little subtle help).
Problem :
TransitionFX is somehow obscured on the 2nd and 3rd boxes. Is this something I can overcome in my inline layout, or do I have to think of another way?
(Also … if there are any other actions out there that could do a better job, I’d love to know about them. I couldn’t find any. )
I wish I understood this process. I can’t find anything in FW help (nothing!) and there’s probably threads here, but I could spend days reading through stuff I don’t understand trying to pick it apart. I’ve already spent an hour this morning and am none the wiser.
To use/add Custom CSS, do I …
1/ Create a Style via the Edit Styles/Extended dialog?
2/ Paste in the code (or the relevant part of the code I want)?
3/ Create a link to this Style’s Name, in the Head section of the page I want it to appear on?
4/ Select the Item I want it to be applied to in my FW doc and via Item/Extended, create a new Div attribute and add the name of the Style I just created?
