Table Of Contents
This option lets you specify what area of the object must be clicked on to invoke the link. However it is
not supported for HTML websites (the rectangle surrounding the object is always used), it works only
when exporting to Flash.
Shape of object
: The user must click inside the exact outline of the object to invoke the link.
Rectangle surrounding object
: The user can click anywhere in the rectangle surrounding the object (the bounding box) to invoke the
link.
Link transition
This option allows you to apply a transition effect to a link so that the page linked to (whether it's an
external site or one of the pages in your site) appears with the page transition that you select. Link
transitions can only be used when the link is opening a new page, and are disabled otherwise.
Note: If you apply a link transition to a link that goes to a page with its own transition set using the Page
tab
, then the link transition is used. So the link transition overrides the page transition for a given link.
Transition effect:
Choose your animation effect from the drop-down list.
You can apply the following transition effects to a link:

horizontal
slide in
New contents slide in, split into two halves which slide together
either vertically or horizontally
Speed (secs): Set the duration of the effect in seconds.By default objects will only slide in/out to the
edge of the web page. If you would like objects to start from the browser window edges, rather than the
web page edges, deselect the Clip to page edges checkbox in the Website tab
of the Web Properties dialog.
By default when a transition is applied, objects will only slide in/out to the edge of the web page. If you
would like objects to start from the browser window edges, rather than the web page edges, deselect
the Clip to page edges checkbox in the Website tab
of the Web Properties dialog.
Note: This option is grayed out if Link to anchor, Link to file, Pop-up layer or Pop-up photo
are selected.
