To create a rollover style:
1
In the Rollovers palette, create the desired rollover states. (See
“Creating rollover states”
on page 400
.)
Note:
You must use a layer-based slice in order to create a rollover style.
2
Apply the effects to each state using predefined styles in the Styles palette or by
manually setting layer effects in the Layers palette. (See
“Using layer effects and styles” on
page 301
.)
3
In the Styles palette, click the Create New Style button , or choose New Style from the
palette menu.
4
Enter a name for the style, set style options, and click OK. The Include Rollover States
option must be selected in order to create a rollover style.
The new rollover style appears in the Styles palette. The thumbnail preview displays the
effects in the Normal state.
Copying and pasting rollover states
You can copy a rollover state and paste it into another state in the current rollover or into a
state in another rollover. Layers in the source state replace layers in the destination state.
You can also copy frames from the Animation palette and paste them into the Rollovers
palette as states, or copy states from the Rollovers palette and paste them into the
Animation palette as frames.
Note:
Copy commands in the Animation palette and the Rollovers palette use an internal
clipboard available to these commands only. Copying frames or rollover states does not
overwrite the primary ImageReady clipboard.
To copy and paste rollover states:
1
Select a rollover state, and choose Copy Rollover State from the Rollovers palette menu.
2
Select a rollover state in which to paste the copied state:
•
Select a state in the current rollover.
•
Open or display another rollover, and select a state.
3
Choose Paste Rollover State from the Rollovers palette menu.
Duplicating rollover states
Duplicating a state is an easy way to add existing animation frames to a new state.
To duplicate a rollover state:
Select a rollover state, and do one of the following:
•
Choose Duplicate Rollover State from the Rollovers palette menu.
•
Drag the state to the Create Rollover State button .
The duplicate state and frames appear below the original state in the Rollovers palette.
Rearranging and deleting rollover states
You can move states between slices and image maps by dragging them to a new location
in the Rollovers palette. You can also delete individual states or all states in a rollover.
