Accordion solution for the year 2022 :-)

Gary, the only usable one is the Easy Accordion and you really have to hack into it to change it to your needs.

Thanks. I was picturing one more like this: Lawrence Welk

OK. As long as there are no music files!
Do you need an extra finger for each page?
And dancing teeth?

Here is a Vertical Accordion using the method: IFRAME - Vertical Accordion.xar.

Ah, so not need for the bubble machine. You probably don't remember Lawrence Welk. Very popular here in the US from the 50's to the 80s. It was pure schmaltz.

That's one glitzy and elaborate contraption you created, Acorn!

Thank you Boy.

I hate the fact that Xara renders every character in a vertical alignment with its own separate Link.
It is really just a set of Sticky link bars and blobs with Reveal animations.

With a Horizontal Accordion, you would have to given the open bar a link to a closed set of bars as the later ones may not be visible in a deep FAQ list.

It works across Variants but does not retain any knowledge of which bar is open.

Well, we know that working with Xara apps is first of all about looks and ease of use. Efficiency follows at some distance.

Hello,

for first thanks to all for help! I did try to modify it somewhat to a horizontal version (see attached) but for some reason it does not show up my labels :-)
