Hi,
I am trying the below, maybe someone can help me here sicne I have not got a reply from the support team on my emails from last week:
• am using Vista Classic Style with 1024 overall width of menu
• 7 main drop down menus – how can I make them all the same width
• But most important I want to create a Drop Up menu – similar to http://www.oldcastle.com/ but with several sub menus - not drop down menue
• then the Drop up menu needs to go over background flash or background picture and changing picture when mouse over menu
In addition I need to know how I can create another/new drop down menu that drops in text next to each other underneath the main menu. How can I do this?
Cheers GC

Hello,
The part with the changing of the picture when you move the mouse over different buttons can be done very easily using the events that the menu dispatches.
The “drop-up” part it’s trickier as the menus weren’t designed to do that. However, there is trick that can be done. In our menu system there is an overlay parameter that controls how much the submenu will overlay the main menu. If that parameter has a high value (like 150) it will cause the submenu to be displayed on top of the main menu bar. The only problem with this trick is that if you have a submenu with 4 buttons and another one with 3 buttons, there will an empty space between the main menu and the second submenu. That’s because the menu are aligned at the top only and not on the baseline. I’ve attached an example to this email ( the submenus under “company” and “contact”).
You can create something similar with the navigation on that page using our menus. But, it depends what you want to do. If you want to have a navigation with buttons in the submenus the result will be similar with the swf that I’ve sent you and I will show you how to do the background picture changing.
If you want to create a menu that doesn’t have any buttons in the submenus and just some text and a link, this can’t be done with our menus. However, if you want, we could make some custom development and create some custom submenus.
Regards,
Andrei Rinciog

Hello,
Is there any way to have the sub menu layout have an x coordinate other than the left, center and right presets. I'm looking to have the sub menus drop down be about 20 pixels to the left of the main nav. button.
Any help would be appreciated if this can be done?
Thank you,
Tony
