» 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.
Now I want to midify the size of the highlight. For this exercise I will need
to see one of the buttons below. I turn on the pill shape layer's
visibility again, by clicking the eye icon on it.
I want the highlight to be less wide and just about half the height of the
button.
I switch to the Free Transform Tool, choose View> Hide
Edges, and start editing
the
shape.
Finally I move it a bit down from the shape's top. (By hitting the down arrow
once.)
When satisfied, I convert it to a movie clip symbol,
named "highlight".
Finally I edited the over all transparency of the highlight, by choosing Alpha in
the
Color drop down menu (Properties panel). I used an alpha of
75%.
Here's mine, still with the dark background.
See it's got a bit more roundness to it now?
You can stop here, or, if you want a light background, you should have a shadow
underneath your button, to indicate that the light shines through it.
