moving background

[Larry Cole]

Can Xara create a moving background beneath a section?

If so, how can this effect be created? Or, where in the manual or Help section can I find out how to accomplish this effect?

Not directly in Xara Larry.

It can be done using some type of Flash software. In my demo I use Hippani Animator. It's an html5 animator program.

I placed the html file it created into a rectangle placeholder on the Pasteboard layer.

You can view it HERE

Hi Larry, attached is a different moving background. The coding that you will find in the placeholder body section was provided some time ago by one of the following gurus, either Egg, Acorn or Siran. I cannot remember who or in which thread. It is called the pan Ken Burns moving background.

Hi Roly, this file needs sky.jpg which isn't attached

Thanks Egg, I am not at my computer so I will modify much later on this evening or early Thursday morning Montreal time. Sorry for the omission and the confusion created.

Here's something else I've been messing about using hippani. A bit manic but fun :

Hi Larry, try this one. I put in the fix that Egg suggested. Let us know if this works for you.

Hi Egg, this is a bit too much animation for my liking, but that's just me. I am sure some other folks will like it.
