Hi Gary....I tried that ....putting a little rectangle over inside each group (where the individual bmp letters are for each month)...everytime I assign a web link to one of those rectangles....it applies that path to all the rectangles even though each rectangle are in their appropritate group with their bmp month letters. (this would be a nice new widget design for the next little version upgrade...by the way)

AH-HA!!! I needed to put the rectangles under the year (mouse over layer) but NOT inside the groups!!! SUCCESS.....!!!!
Whoop - there it is..... =D>
Thank you Gary (for making me think)....I will upload the example for others to benefit from.
(still would be a nice widget....hint-hint)
Now that you are done, I would have created one master panel with all 12 months as text. Then copy and paste the master panel into the other year's layers. Then link the text to the appropriate PDF files.
But the one thing we know about Xara, and Xara users, is there is always more than one way to do something.
Cheers then. :)

I'm going to give that a try now Gary....I have to setup years from 2001 - 2014 ....that's why I thought using a tab affect would look neater.

PS: I added the working attachment in my previous thread ...that's the one with the bitmap and transparent rectangles...I added a cover page, instead of having 2012 showing twice (mouseOff layer and 2012 layer).

Hi Karen, unfortunately I can't view your attachment. You appear to be getting there however. Here is my take on Gary's template and how to make things like this as simple as possible. Watch in HD:

OH MY ...Egg!!!! This is wonderful....using navigation bars and pre-designing ahead of time for upcoming years (hiding them with the hider bars).....
LOVE IT!!! Will definitely be setting this up and using in other stuff too...like (previous year's press releases, etc)
