| The ImageFader is a classic slideshow
where each image is faded against each other.
Selecting Images and URLs
Make sure you have the same number of Images as you have
URLs, when specifying images. Don't use images that are too
big. Note that these images will be included into the SWF
file, and it may swell to enormous proportions. Try modifying
the compression setting to decrease the SWF file size. If
you don't want to have one image with a link, leave the line
empty in the URL field.
Fade Speed and Image Pause
The fade speed will set the speed of the fading effect. The
image pause is the time period before the image being displayed
fades away.
The Background color
The background color will have little affect on the effect.
Only when two images are fading against each other and they
are half way through the process, then the background color
will appear briefly during that process. This is due to the
imperfection of the fading process. We recommend putting this
color to black or white, depending on what images are used.
Limitations
Due to a limitation in Flash Player 5.0, you are limited
to a maximum of 200 images in the Flash applet. More than
that, and the applet will not work.
Other settings
There are other settings that are discussed on the following
topics from the Anfy Flash documentation:
