How does one change the drop down color?

It's the fill color of the shape. Inspector -> Shape -> Fill

Can the drop down ... menu be independent of one another?



Text overhangs a bit when using the rounded rectangle as well:



Transparency also doesn't apply to the drop down:

It also seems that you can NOT copy and paste the navigation bar from one page to another.

Its easy enough to separate the drop down from the navigation by adding a top margin to the navigation ul ul.

The problem is that you create a dead space which is inactive. The wider the space the faster the visitor has to move the mouse!

These examples will show the problem...

No margin - http://www.ezmacwebdesign.com/Demo/ddm/ddm1.html

1px margin - http://www.ezmacwebdesign.com/Demo/ddm/ddm2.html

5px margin - http://www.ezmacwebdesign.com/Demo/ddm/ddm2.html

To overcome this you would need to use a CSS hover delay which probably won't work in older version of IE or the jquery.hoverIntent.js.

Adding all this to a beginner level app will make life very confusing for the user!

fI you want to apply rounded corners to both the ul li and the ul ul you need to do it twice in the CSS. The same applies to opacity. Using all these features will create PNGs with the usual negative effect on your page download speed.

Anybody who wants all these features would probably be easier to create a menu with one of the online menu building sites and paste in the code. This will be so much easier with easyWeb than iWeb with the method of code injection and no need to change all the link targets to escape the iframe.

Not what I was referring to. I was referring to the color.

If color is set to none you get a red drop down box. It would be nice to control the color of the drop down box indepently of the menu bar

Its just the same as with my comments about rounded corners and opacity. You need to change the background of the ul ul independently of the ul.

It would mean adding more boxes for people to enter data and would be very confusing for a beginner. I wonder how far you would go with this. Boxes for choice of color, shape, rollover, opacity etc for the main menu, the sub menu, the sub sub menu...

So, Roddy are you the developer of EasyWeb?

I am simply asking a question. This isn't a competition.

The point of a Beta test is to ask these questions ... try and break the App before the general public gets their hands on it and Really starts asking some questions.

Hi Jeff,

Sorry, I thought I responded to your email about this.

I haven't had a chance to look at the opacity yet. They should have been exported but I'll take another look later on. Right now we're trying to just get all widgets exporting correctly.

If it isn't in the release notes posted in the Announcements section it most likely didn't get looked at for this release.
