Multi-Level NavBar

[cursor]

Now, as there are separate rollover layers for every popup layer, you probably want to know how WD decides which rollover layer has to be used with any particular pop up layer. It's simple. All based on the layers order. The nearest rollower layer on top of your static or popup layer is used with this layer.

That explains why the buttons on the attached file behave differently.

• The document is two very simple pages, with rollover buttons to navigate back and forth.
• The second page has three additional test buttons, hoping to figure out how multiple MouseOver layers work.
  • The first button leaves the MouseOff & MouseOver layer assignment unchanged ('MouseOff' and 'MouseOver_A', respectively).
    The button functions perfectly well.
  • The second button moves the MouseOff graphic (box+text+link) to a layer called 'Base'. The MouseOver graphic (box+text) is moved to a layer called 'MouseOver_B'.
    The desired rollover effect for this button fails.
  • The third button's layer setup is the same as the second, above. The difference is that I explicitly told it to pop-up the 'MouseOver_B' layer on the MouseOver tab of its Web Property dialog.
    The desired rollover effect for this button fails.
• The layer order is:

  MouseOver_B
  MouseOver_A
  MouseOff
  Base

Note that I intentionally did not involve any soft-groups, hoping to simplify this test however possible.
