When the menu popup javascript expands to show all of the text, it is cut off on the right side…

Filed under: Recent Posts — Tags: — admin @ July 4, 2009 at 8:45 am

Q:

Is it possible to make the menu popup javascript and the text bigger?
Or at least the text larger?
Right now the text is so small that they actually look a little blurry.

The only font I can increase is the font on the dropdown menus.
but I cant change the font that appear on the actual tabs.
If I could increase the font on them that would be great.

A:

You should change font in Individual styles.
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=92px","itemHeight=21px","itemBackImage=http://www.pursepage.com/wp-content/themes/pinkdoubleheader/data.files/btn_magentablack.gif,http://www.pursepage.com/wp-content/themes/pinkdoubleheader/data.files/btn_magenta.gif","itemBorderWidth=0", "fontStyle='normal 14px Arial','normal 14px Arial'","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF"],
];

menu javascript code seems to be working fine with IE7, it doesn’t load on Firefox

Filed under: Recent Posts — Tags: , , — admin @ July 4, 2009 at 2:05 am

Q:

I am having a little problem. While the code seems to be
working fine with IE7, it doesn’t load on Firefox 2.0.

IÒve spent quite a while looking through the code and looking at
the live examples on your site to see if there is anything I can do,
but haven’t found a solution to this problem!

A:

You should set the following menu javascript code parameter:

var tmenuHeight = “auto”;

How do I create more space between the menu items in my flyout menus?

Q:

How do I create more space between the menu items?
I have tried adding to the Item Appearance, itemSpacing and itemPadding.

A:

You can paste the separator.
Please, see the following flyout menus parameters:

//——- Separators ——-
var separatorWidth = “10″;
var separatorHeight = “20″;
var separatorAlignment = “center”;
var separatorImage = “C”;
var separatorVWidth = “150″;
var separatorVHeight = “10%”;
var separatorVImage = “image.jpg”;

You can create separators using menuItems, for example:

var menuItems = [
["item 1"],
["-"], // this item is separator
["item 2"],
];

You can also use this parameter:
var itemPadding = “4px”;
You can also set multiple values, for example:
var itemPadding = “2px 15px 5px 5px”;
(top, right, bottom, left)

Do you have online tutorials to learn how to work with css menu li?

Filed under: Recent Posts — Tags: , , — admin @ July 3, 2009 at 4:05 pm

Q:

Hi, I just downloaded a trial version of your software but I
don’t know how to use it. Do you have online tutorials to learn how
to work with it?? Thank you.

A:

Unfortunately we don’t have step by step tutorial now. We’ll try to
create it in the nearest time.

1. Create your css menu li in Deluxe Tuner application.
You can create any menu as you like in Deluxe Tuner.

Deluxe Tuner v2.4 supports Deluxe Menu (http://deluxe-menu.com) &
Deluxe Tree (http://deluxe-tree.com) & Deluxe Tabs (http://deluxe-tabs.com)

You can use ready to use templates. You can find them in the templates
window.

When you open Deluxe Tuner ( Deluxe Menu ) you can click “File/New”
and add items and subitems using buttons “Add Item” and “Add Subitem” on
the main window.
You should set items and subitems parameters on the “Item Parameters”
window.
See also other parameters for the menu on the main window.

More info about css menu li parameters you can find on our site (you can also
use local version of the site which you can find in the trial package
“Deluxe Menu / deluxe-menu.com /”)
http://deluxe-menu.com/parameters-info.html
http://deluxe-menu.com/menu-items-info.html

You can also use Individual Styles for items and subitems
http://deluxe-menu.com/individual-item-styles-info.html
http://deluxe-menu.com/individual-submenu-styles-info.html

2. You should install the menu on your page.
You can click, for example, File/Export to HTML (you can’t do it in
the MAC version).

Add several rows into your html page.

<head>

<!– Deluxe Menu –>
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">css menu li by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">var dmWorkPath="deluxe-menu.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data-deluxe-menu.js"></script> //data-deluxe-menu.js - data file created in Deluxe Tuner.

</head>

<body>

<table>
<tr><td><script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/data.js"></script></td></tr>
</table>

</body>

You should also copy all engine files
dmenu.js
dmenu4.js
dmenu_add.js
dmenu_dyn.js
dmenu_key.js
dmenu_cf.js
dmenu_popup.js
dmenu_ajax.js
into “deluxe-menu.files/” folder. You should place this folder in the
same folder with your index. html page.

Under the javascript tree images there is a gray line that makes it look broken.

Filed under: Recent Posts — Tags: , , — admin @ July 3, 2009 at 12:55 pm

Q:

I installed licensed files, entered the key and now the javascript tree appears broken.
You will see under the “Contact Us” image there is a gray line that makes it look broken. I am using IE 6.0.
The line doesn’t appear in Firefox. What solution is there to this?

A:

The line which you can see on your website is a shadow. You can see it only in IE.

Please see menu parameters, they contains:
var shadowLen=3;

Try to write so:
var shadowLen=0;
var shadowColor=”#777777″;
var shadowTop=1;

Q:

If you will go to my site you will see that the horizontal menu using buttons turn
white or unload and reload when hovered over. Is there anything I can do to
prevent this?

A:

You can have such effect when the page entirely was not loaded yet.
So, images were loaded only for the 1 state and for the other were not loaded yet.

If you don’t want to have such effect you can use 1 state buttons.
