Applying transitions to popup layers
You can apply a transition to a popup layer to control how the layer appears, whether it's triggered by a
mouse-over action or a click. So for example if you apply a fade transition, when the popup layer
appears it will fade in instead of appearing instantly.
1.
Click the layer in the Page & Layer Gallery and click the Properties button at the top of the
gallery.
2.
Click the Web transition tab of the Layer properties dialog.
3.
Choose an effect from the Transition effect drop-down list and move the slider to set a speed
for the transition in seconds.
4.
Click Apply.
Note:
There are fewer transition effects available for layers compared to links and pages.
Pop-up Layers
A more powerful alternative allows you to display the contents of any layer as a result of mousing over,
or clicking, any object. This can be used for a range of different pop-up effects such as pop-up photos,
menus or detailed object descriptions.
To do this, place all the objects you want to pop-up on a new layer (in the Page & Layer Gallery
click New while you have a layer selected - don't use the MouseOver layer), then set the Mouseover
property (Mouse-over
tab of the Web Properties dialog) of the original object to trigger the display of this layer when you
mouseover any other object. For example you can make a pop-up, like this, appear as you mouse over
