Creating rollover buttons that also show a gallery image

Hi all.
I'm a newbie to Dreamweaver, so please bear with me! 
Here's what I'm trying to do: I'm creating a portfolio gallery.  I want to have a thumbnail button that will rollover and show its "down" image and also the corresponding portfolio image in the gallery window.  I know this can be done, as I've seen it numerous times.  So far, I've only found tutorials on how to create the button and not both button and gallery image.
Any suggestions?  And please - no code!  I can't seem to successfully implement code, as I'm html-retarded!  So if you can offer a tutorial link or even how to create this using the Designer interface in Dreamweaver, I'd TOTALLY appreciate it.
Thanks,
B.

This isn't something you can do with HTML alone.  You need a slideshow or gallery widget. 
I recommend jQuery Fancybox
http://fancybox.net/
However a Google search will reveal tons of other ones.
As for a mouseover effect on thumbnails, you can do that easily with CSS.
Below is an example of Fancybox with CSS opacity applied to thumbnails.

  • Acrobat 9.0 Std - How do I create a button that will show / hide the menu bar?

    In Adobe Acrobat 8, I was able to create a button that would show the menu bar using Link Properties. In version 9.0, the option I used is missing.
    The other view options are there under "Execute a menu item": View > Toolbars > File, Edit, etc.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated - thanks!

  • How to create text buttons that link to video?

    I've finally gotten around to trying DVD SP, and even though I read the whole manual, it's not at all clear if, or how, you can create text buttons that link to the video you want to play, without displaying a clip of that video in the button itself.
    I have no problem creating a text button, but I can't change the font, and editing is counter-intuitive, unlike iDVD. I'd use iDVD, but it doesn't accept .m2v files, and it seems to think that my 6 videos of about 43 minutes each are too large for a DVD+DL disc, so it won't let me burn it or save it as a disc image.
    Does anyone have a way out of this conundrum, or am I SOL?
    Mulder

    It really isn't that hard!
    As Drew said, go into your menu and click and drag to create a button rectangle. With the button highlighted, look in the property inspector at the bottom and type in the text that you want to use. Ensure that you 'include in button highlight' and then set the colour choice for selected and activated.
    What you get is a simple line of text which illuminates when you roll over it, and changes colour when you click on it.
    Once that is done, click on the button area again and set the target to go to the piece of video that you want to have play back.
    You should also set the menu call and end jump on that track to make sure your viewer can get back to the menu.
    Once that is done the menu will show as a simple piece of text (more buttons means more bits of text, and the first button will be highlighted by default) and no video will play until the button is activated.
    DVDSP is definitely a steeper learning curve than iDVD but for very good reasons. You get far greater control and access to far more advanced features in DVDSP. This means that some things will seem harder, whereas in fact they are just different and the process for achieving the result you want is different. Much of what you want to know is in the manual and also in the tutorials which came with the app. Failing that there are several good online spaces where you can find a lot more information... not least of which is right here, of course!

  • Creating a button that highlights itself and another object

    Hello all,
    I have a specific function I am trying to apply to my InDesign document intended for exporting to an interactive PDF and SWF/html format.
    The function I am trying to create is:
    I have a picture of a typical WYSIWYG tool bar. I have created highlight buttons that sit on top of each icon in the picture. When the reader rolls over (with cursor) this picture of an icon I want it to highlight, and also a piece of text further down the page to highlight as well (which is a definition and explanation of the icon). So I want the rollover action of my first button to also trigger another action, which is to highlight a piece of text elsewhere on the page. I have managed to get it so that I hover over the first button (picture of icon), it highlights, and the text further down the page appears. But this isn’t quite what i want. I want the text to exist already, then highlight. Basically, I want to the two buttons to be linked. So that every time I hover over a portion of the picture with a created button, it will highlight, and a piece of exploratory text will also highlight simultaneously elsewhere on the page. A bit like an infograph. Surely this is possible?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Generally, animations like this with the goal of exporting a SWF are better be done in Adobe Flash.
    In Indesign it sort of works, too. Only for export to SWF, you can assign the action "Go to status". For a text frame, you can assign different status, where the 1st status would be "normal" and the 2nd status would be "highlighted". Highlighted applies to the object "text frame", so you can assign a stroke or fill. Better than nothing.

  • Can i create a button that links to the slideshow widget

    I am creating a portfolio site for a class. It is a one page site, One of my sections is going to be my "work" section. I want to categorize my work, So I have made buttons that pertain to each category of work. Is there anyway that I can link this to the slideshow widget. When one of the category buttons is clicked I want the slideshow widget to pop up. Is this possible? I can not find a tutorial and I am very new to Muse. Thank you!

    Hi,
    You can't directly associate a button with a slideshow. However, you can embed slideshow in a tooptip target and add the button to the tooltip trigger as mentioned in this post : Re: How do i create a button which will show new content on same page?

  • I need to create a button that links to another swf file...

    i'm creating my first website, and, for each menu item, i am
    creating a new flash document... is this the correct way to create
    a multi-page website?
    plus: how to create a button that links to a jpg, thanks!
    jane

    Creating separate swf's these days as far as I know is
    considered to be a better practice than using the "scenes" that are
    in Flash. The reason is you can load various sections of your
    entire Flash entity rather than the user downloading everything at
    once.
    But, it also depends on the complexity of where your menu
    items are leading. If they are simple enough, then there may be no
    need to create new documents.
    To create a button that links to a jpeg, try this.
    Whatever graphic you're using for the button, select it and
    hit F8 to convert it to a movie clip. Once it's in your library,
    click on your new movie clip on the stage and give it an instance
    name in the properties window.
    Click the first frame in your timeline (preferably on a layer
    named "actions") and put this example in for the actionscript:
    //buttonName is the instance name you gave it
    //.onPress tells Flash when buttonName is pressed then do
    what's
    //inside the brackets of the function
    buttonName.onPress = function (){
    //getURL is the Flash function that will load your
    picture.jpg
    //_blank is the target. e.g. _blank, _self etc.
    getURL("picture.jpg", "_blank");
    }

  • Creating a button that flips back and forth on iPad in InDesign through DPS

    How do I create a button that flips back and forth on iPad in InDesign through DPS. I saw it on a food magzine on an ipad ... it's just a circle with text it in, when you click it the whole circle flips to the other side and there is a different color with different text. The circle does not change position, it just flips. Again, I want to do this so it shows up on the ipad through DPS.
    Thanks,

    You need to create a Web overlay. There's an HTML example you can download and repurpose in this article:

    Is there a way to create a button that links to a website?
    I was reading up that it's possible to this with menus, and tracks but can you do it with a button and how?
    I am hoping to create a button that people viewing my discs on a computer can click on the link and their web browser will pop up and take them to a website.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks.

    dvd@ccess questions are being asked once a week on this forum, so I'll repeat why it's useless:
    - Mac users have to enable the feature in the preferences of DVD Player in order to for the links to work.
    - PC users have to install a small application on their PC, and they have to reboot the PC in order for the links to work.
    - On top of this, it's still unreliable, and may not work on some computers.
    It's a dog: Don't use it.

  • How to create a button that Copies subform data and paste it to a new page?

    Hi , I'm want to create a button that when clicked copys all the data from the feilds of a subform off the previous page and paste it into current page.
    I have used Steve's "Simple table.pdf example" to add a subform called DecorationDetail that has a button that adds an instance when clicked.
    Contained in the decorationdetail subform are feilds named Quantity, Description,UnitPrice etc. and a delete instance button.
    So when the first page is filled out, and a second page with blank duplicate feilds is added by a add page button. I want to be able to click a button
    positioned at the end of the row of feilds, and it then copies the same subform data from the previous coresponding page and pastes it into the current page subform feilds.
    Hope this make sense?. A step by step guide would be greatly appreciated!!!.

  • How Do i create a list that will show in a dropdown box with the list being pulled from another tab and not the cell data format junk?

    How Do i create a list that will show in a dropdown box with the list being pulled from another tab and not the cell data format junk?
    I currently run OS X 10.10.1
    Now i have been trying to work on this for a while now and what i want to do should be simple but its apparently not.
    Here is an example of what i want to happen.
    I will have 2 tabs: Contact | Sales
    Now Contacts will have the list of names and various information about a customer, While Sales will have one drop-down box for each Cell Row that will show the names of the person in tab contacts
    for what i am wanting to do i cant use the data format pop-up menu because the list is edited everyday several times a day.
    Now how do i do this, Excel can do this so how can numbers do it?

    Paste this into a applescript editor window and run it from there. In the script you may need to adjust the four properties to agree with your spreadsheet. Let me know if you have any questions.

  • Is there a way to create a button that works the same as the ImageField?

    I am trying to create a button that acts like the ImageField tool. I want to be able to click on the button and it will direct me to browse for my photo that I want to attach.
    I am using LiveCycle. (I am a nooby and have limited skills when it comes to script)
    The ImageField function is to complex of a function for the use on my IPAD (PDF Expert APP). I can create a photo button using Adobe Form Creater and it works fine with the below script:
    event.target.buttonImportIcon ();
    This is a mouseup Action Event.
    My form that has been created in LiveCycle works perfectly on my IPad, except the photos. If I can simplify the function of the photos to act more like the Adobe Form Creater tool, then perhaps it will all work together.
    Any ideas, or is this just a waste of time? I have created the form over using Adobe Form Creater, but it has some limitations that make it not function as nice as LiveCycle's form.
    Thanks

    Not in Acrobat unless your image is already in the PDF format.
    This is a feature of forms created with LiveCycle Designer.
