    Default Open rest of the text

    I want to state a preview text with one sentence. When you click on the word "more" the longer rest of the text should pop up under the preview text on the same page.
    How can I do that with Xara Web Designer + ? Thank you for answers.

    Alex, welcome to TalkGraphics. You almost answered your own question.

    Create a pop-up layer with a useful layer name, e.g., topic01.
    On the preview text > more, in the text tool, highlight 'more' and in Web Properties > Link > Pop-up layer, link to 'topic01' and Apply.

    You will probably have to add a backing box of some colour behind the fuller text.

    Sorry, back.

    Sit down with the Help file.
    Search for the keywords that I used.

    Hello. Thank You Acorn. I have now a text popping up on a different layer when I click on "more". The problem now is, it does not supersede the objects behind it.
    My aim was something you find often on the Amazon website: click on an arrow for more details, close the details with another arrow. Like a drawer furniture.

    On the MouseOff layer create your button/text to open your layer.
    Create a layer, populate with your content and name it anything, but have the word (lock) at the end. Like this - anything(lock)

    On MouseOff, select your button and Utilities > Web Properties > Link (tab) > Pop-Up Layer (drop menu). Choose anything(lock), then click Settings... and choose an animation: stretch/slide/etc.
    On the layer, create a button/text to close the popup. Select the button and Utilities > Web Properties > Link (tab) > Link To Web Or Email Address (radio) and type popup:close

    Have a look at the attached .xar to see how it comes together.
