Q: We purchased your deluxe menu two months ago. Right now, I try to resize the menu icon to fit our website. I changed MenuHeight, I got duplicate menu icons. I also want to change Menu Icon font, but I couldn't do it. We have your previous version menu system, As soon as we change bigger font for Menu Icon, it will be resize. I really think you sould have this function. Otherwise, I got create my own image.
A: See images in Vista Templates have the fixed width and height (92 x21).
If you want to change items' width/height you should change images.
btn_magentablack.gif
btn_magenta.gif
You can do it in any graph editor, for example in Adobe PhotoShop.
To change font in the top items you should change your Individual ItemStyle.
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=92px","itemBorderWidth=0","fontStyle=normal 11px
Tahoma","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF","itemBackImage=data-vista-03.files/btn_magentablack.gif,data-vista-03.files/btn_magenta.gif"],
];
You can do it in Deluxe Tuner.
Q: Currently, I have Deluxe Menu installed on my website.
However, I have noticed that the javascript mouseover menu picture width for the top level icon changes. For example, the mouse over picture for "Beauty" is one length whereas the mouse over icon for "Home & Garden" gives me one and a half pictures. I have illustrated this in the attachment.
Please could you advise me on how I could resolve this problem.
Thank you for taking your time to read this email.
I look forward to receiving your reply.
A: You can try to use the following parameters to use combinedbackground for your items:
var beforeItemImage = [,]; //left-side image for normal and mouse over state
var itemBackImage = [,]; //background or image for normal and mouse over state
var afterItemImage = [,]; //right-side image for normal and mouse over state
var beforeItemImageW = '';
var afterItemImageW = '';
var beforeItemImageH = '';
var afterItemImageH ='';
But you should create a small images in any Graph Editor, for example:
button_n_back.gif
button_n_left.gif
button_n_right.gif
button_o_back.gif
button_o_left.gif
button_o_right.gif
Q: We are using the deluxe menu in one of our projects. The menu works well on our integration system but not on our production system.
The only difference is that the integration is running on Tomcat Version 5.5.9 and the production (with the "broken" menu) on Tomcat 5.5.17.
But for me it looks more like a browser problem than a JSP problem.
Unfortunatley the Tomcat 5.5.17 is our production system so fast help is appreciated.
A: Try to set the following parameter:
var dmObjectsCheck=1;
Make sure that you have dmenu_add.js file in the same folder withdmenu.js file.
Q: I have the dynamic dropdown menu working perfectly on the main page of the website, but when I try to install it onto html files that appear in subfolders of the site, the images do not appear. I have put ../ before all the links I can find and have the following codes placed in my file, what am I doing wrong?
A: You can use additional parameters to make dynamic dropdown menu paths absolute:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute.For example:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];
So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html
Images paths will be look so:
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif
http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif
Please, try to use these parameters.
