» Title: Creative DW Image Show PRO
» Description: Creative DW Image Show PRO is a Dreamweaver extension which enables the user to create multimedia presentations. It combines the features of the popular Creative DW Image Show with the ability to add professional text effects to slides (similar to After Effects). The product is very customizable: the user can choose the duration of the transition effects, the slide motion start and end position, zoom and panning type for both images and texts.
What is an action? An action is simply a set of instructions that
executes when a specific event occurs. These events can be a key on the
keyboard being pressed, a click of the mouse button, or the movie
reaching a certain frame.
In the example I used an instance of a button and placed a mouse event. These mouse events could be when the user clicks on it or rolls the mouse
over the button. However you can also have a keyboard key to trigger the
action (see our tutorial on keyboard control).
Take a look at the dialog box below. Here you can select the
different events (right) that could trigger you actions (left window)
Actions available to the On MouseEvent Command are:
Press
Mouse Button Pressed When Pointer is Over Button
Release
Mouse Button Released When Pointer is Over Button (Standard Click)
Release Outside
Mouse Button Released When Mouse Pointer is Off Button
Roll Over
Mouse Pointer Moved Over Button
Roll Out
Mouse Pointer Moved Off Button
Drag Over
Mouse button Pressed When Pointer is Over Button, Rolled Off the Button, and then the Pointer is Rolled back over the Button.
Drag Out
Mouse Button Pressed Over Button then Pointer Rolls Off the Button.
Key Press
Occurs when the Specified Key is Pressed.
Note: Assigning an action to an instance of a button will not affect
other instances of that button.
