Themes from WS4

Will it be possible in furture versions of XWD to import or use templates/themes from WS4? I bought the extra themes for WS4 but find I can not use them with XWD and that's a pitty cause the themes with WS4 are pretty good and save me a lot of time.

I do like XWD but I still prefer working with WS4.

Cheers,

Hi Bill,

Direct use of a Webstyle template isn't possible; however, it is possible to use the graphics.

Is there a particular element you would like to use? I can work up a mini-tutorial explaining how to incorporate it into Web Designer.

Hi Bill,

I would be interested in such a tutorial, and perhaps others would too if it's possible for you.

Hi Ed,

I'll work something up in a few days when I have my next day off from work. I work Thursday evening through Monday evening.

Hi Bill,

That's awesome....

Thank you,

For anyone that is interested, I put together a tutorial on using a Webstyle4 theme (the same menu/navbar theme is in Menu Maker).

The colours used in the tutorial and the horizontal navbar are all from Webstyle4.

Hi Bill,

Thank you very much for the excellent tutorial. Once again we are in your debt.

Thanks Ed. I'm glad the tutorial is useful to you.

Hi Bill,

Followed the first part of your tutorial and have hit a snag. I'm wondering if you could have a quick look at the file and see what I'm doing wrong. I have spent quite a few hours trying to solve the problem of mouseover and maybe am just not seeing it because of too much familiarity with the file.

The problem is when I click the eye (layer gallery) for mouseover on and off, the bar does what it should. In preview it doesn't work, I only see the mouseoff layer (which I would expect) but mouseover that area does not show the mouseover layer.....I'm probably missing something really simple....maybe a senior moment or two.

Thanks very much if you can help and thanks anyway...I still like the tutorial, just probably not quite following instructions correctly maybe.

Hi Ed,

You need to assign links to the individual cannister objects before the mouse over effect will work.

I have assigned a dummy link to the 'buttons' so the mouse over works in preview.
