Making slices interactive 175
In Fireworks, when you select a trigger web object created using a behavior handle or the
Behaviors panel, all of its behavior relationships are displayed. By default, a rollover interaction is
represented by a blue behavior line.
Creating a simple rollover
A simple rollover swaps in the frame directly under the top frame and involves only one slice.
To attach a simple rollover to a slice:
1 Ensure that the trigger object is not on a shared layer. For more information, see “Sharing layers
on page 133.
2 Choose Edit > Insert > Slice to create a slice on top of the trigger object.
3 Create a new frame in the Frames panel by clicking the New/Duplicate Frame button.
4 Create, paste, or import an image to use as the swap image on the new frame.
Position the image beneath the slice you created in step 2, which is still visible even though
youre in Frame 2. Slices are visible across all frames.
5 Select Frame 1 in the Frames panel to return to the frame that has the original image.
6 Select the slice and place the pointer over the behavior handle. The pointer changes to a hand.
Note: You can select the slice while in any frame.
7 Click the behavior handle and choose Simple Rollover from the menu.
8 Click the Preview tab and test the simple rollover, or press F12 to preview it in a browser.
