horizontal slide out for Sub-Menu

Post by chrisinoz »

Hi I have the main menu as horizontal
style=menuStyle;
alwaysvisible=1;
orientation="horizontal";
overfilter="";
position="relative";

Client wants sub-menu to slide horizontal not vertical. I thought this would do the job but it still drops vertically - version 5.813

itemwidth="140";
orientation="horizontal";
openstyle='rtl';

Assistance appreciated

Cheers

Hi,

You should be able to change the direction from down to right, like this:

overfilter="Blinds( Bands=1,direction=right, duration=0.3);Alpha(opacity=95);Shadow(color=#777777', Direction=135, Strength=3)";

Hope this helps

Hi,

If you want the submenu to also be horizontal then you have to tell it to be that. The default orientation is vertical. So, make them:

Code: Select all

with(milonic=new menuname("About")){
style=nextStyle;
orientation="horizontal";
aI("text=commercial;url=commercial.html;");
aI("text=hotels;url=hotels.html;");
aI("text=home;url=home.html;");
aI("text=outdoor;url=outdoor.html;");
}


with(milonic=new menuname("Articles")){
style=nextStyle;
orientation="horizontal";
aI("text=current;url=Articles.html;");
aI("text=library;url=library.html;");

}
Hope that is what you meant.
