menu speed control

Post by saladpuncher »

My clients want me to slow down the menu so that when they move their cursor from one selection to the other there is a delay. We are using a vertical menu and when they put their cursor over a main menu selection, then move diagonally to choose a sub-menu item, they sometimes move over another main menu selection causing them to loose their place because a different sub-menu pops up (wow, what a run on sentence). Any ideas on how to slow it down by half a second or so?

Check out the top properties in the menu array js file..

timegap=500 // The time delay for menus to remain visible
followspeed=5 // Follow Scrolling speed
followrate=40 // Follow Scrolling Rate
suboffset_top=10; // Sub menu offset Top position
suboffset_left=10; // Sub menu offset Left position

Another good way of slowing down the menu is to use a fade effect with them.. this takes time tio generate so gives the desired result. Check out the Transisition Effects (filter) page
