Groovy tabbed navigation bar
Hi - Thanks everyone for the tips on here, I'd be pretty lost without them!
I'm trying to create a tabbed navbar similar to ones like this here
http://www.tutorial9.net/category/photoshop/
and here
http://www.spinen.com/index
Would it be easier to do this in Xtreme and then port it over the Web designer? Does anyone know of any tutorials regarding this on the web? Links appreciated.
Thanks.

I don't believe there is any need to bridge between xWD and xX4 in order to create functional tabs like those you referenced. xWD can certainly handle that task solo.

Take a look at my WIP site http://www.madladdesigns.co.uk. There are tabs on that site made completely in WD (under Games & Apps). ;)

On the site used as an example they have each tab go to a separate folder, so I believe it's a separate page for each.

Yeah, that was the only drawback, that's why there is a light image background.

Hi Stuart,
I had hoped to post this last night but I messed up the links and then had to go to work. :(
Here is a very simple tabbed interface made with Web Designer that may help you see how the concept can be achieved.
The tabs are simple shapes with text configured to be buttons with links to the other pages.
There is also a large rectangle that would be the main page for each tab. The location and colour of this rectangle gives the impression that it is part of the selected tab.

I started creating a tutorial just this morning (with everything detailed out). I'll post it a little bit later today.

Would it be ok to add it to the Guide? :)
