Help creating revealing drop down navigation

[cmpan1]

Hi bwood... I think you're wasting time with Xara's drop-down menu capabilities. They're too limited, and frustrated me for the longest time... So much so that it prompted me to do menus and drop-downs differently.

BTW... what Xara lacks in one way... makes up for it with its amazing ability to work-around and create your own thing...

Here is how I do what (I believe) you want to accomplish... I over did it a bit, for demo purposes....

1. Link to online example

2. The Xara file so you can see some of the possibilities and how the layers are ordered. DROP-DOWN MENU SAMPLE.xar

Hopes this helps you some...
