How do I integrat a slider in web designer 7 ?

[erde]

HI

I like to show 4-5 pictures on the top of my website. With the widget in designer 7 I am not quite happy. I wonder if I can integrate the code of a 3rd party slider. e.g. easyslider 1.7.

I downloaded the slider but then it ends. I got those folders:
css
images
js

no html code with I can put in a placeholder. PLEASE HELP. Ho can I integrate this in my website

It would help, for those of us who haven't used the widget, if you could show us an example of what you want to achieve

You can easily do this in Xara using Flash - would you like me to show you?

I've chosen a jquery slider because it should also work on iphone/ipad. Flash I fancy a lot,
but I do not have experiance in programming flash. What would you recommend ?

[Big Frank]

Flash will not work on earlier iphone/ipads, which is a shame, but never mind.

You don't need any Flash programming experience to create simple Flash animations using Xara. It's really quite simple.

Ok. Could you teach me how? I want to have a nice slider with 4-5 pictures. Effect similar like on :

Here's a simple image slider:

and the XAR file for you to inspect and dissect: image slider.xar

Here's a simple image slider using transparency:

and the XAR file for you to inspect and dissect: image slider transparent.xar

Here's a simple image slider using image resize:

and the XAR file for you to inspect and dissect: image slider size up.xar

The most important thing when inspecting the files is to click on the images and open the Name Gallery to see the name that has been applied to each image to ensure a smooth tween (movement) between the same image between two frames.

Have fun, inspect, dissect and create easy Flash animations using Xara Designer.

Beret, few - none - of the pics I would want to use are long and narrow - is there a way to change the shape and still use this slider? Since this puts one pic on top of the other, if one uses a different shape pic how does one keep part of the pic from below showing if the one on top is a different shape? - jb
