Using the Object Actions panel, you can assign actions for different objects in your Graphical Link Menu.
Actions are fired in response to Events. Available events are listed in the Object Actions panel. Frames have a unique event On Load which objects do not. When an event occurs, objects for the event will be executed. The events occur according to how their name suggests they occur. For instance, On Load events occur when a Frame is loaded (when it first appears). On Mouse Over events occur when the mouse hovers over top of an Object. On Mouse Down events occur when a mouse button is clicked on an object. On Mouse Up events occur when a mouse button is let go over an object and On Mouse Out events occur when the mouse which was over top of an object, leaves from hovering over that object (i.e. the pointer of the mouse no longer lies within the boundaries of the object). You may add as many events as you like to occur on any event you like. There are no restrictions. Simple click the Add New button to show the Add Action dialog and create your new action.
There are a number of actions you can create for an event. Clicking through the tabs at the top of the Add Action dialog will allow you to choose from a number of actions: Launch URL - takes your client to the url you specify
using their default browser. When you are finished customizing your action, push OK and the action will be added to the Event queue. |
