| Looking
for that little extra special touch to your homepage? Try putting
this navigator applet into it.
Adding
menu items and URLs
Enter
each menu item and its corresponding URL into their respective
text field. Make sure you have the same number of menu items
as you have URLs. See the section Entering
Text Or Files for more information about entering menu
items.
The
menu colors
You can
set two colors in this menu. The background color is for the
menu background. The text color is for the menu item text.
Horizontal
or Vertical placement of the menu items
This setting
is important as it lets you display the menu items on a single
line (horizontal mode) or on a column (vertical mode). Make
sure you set the displacement parameters correctly.
Displacement,
Item size and Animation speed
The vertical
and horizontal displacement are used to displace the items
from the top and left sides respectively, this is measured
in pixels. The horizontal displacement should be larger than
the item width if you are using the horizontal menu item placement
mode. The vertical displacement must be larger than the menu
item height if you have unselected the horizontal mode. The
menu item width and height are the dimensions of the menu
items in pixels.
The animation speed will set the speed of the rotation effect
and the mouse over rotation effect. Values between 1-5 are
recommended.
Background
Images
You can
specify a menu item background image and a background image
for the applet. Specifying a background image will override
the background color. If you do not specify a menu item background
image, then you will only have transparent text.
Limitations
Due to
a limitation in Flash Player 5.0, you can have a maximum of
200 menu items 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:

Flash Applet Size Parameters

Working
with fonts
1.1 : Added support for the ActionScript LoadMovie() command,
which means that the effect can now be inserted into Macromedia
Flash FLA projects. You can now load other .swf files or disable
the links by entering empty links.
