Inspired XPress - Programming Guide
3. Also under Highlight, note the Opacity and Width fields. The Opacity field controls the opacity of the border
compared to its background: a higher number means a more opaque border. The Width field controls the total width
of the border: the higher the number, the wider the border around the button. In this example, leave the Opacity
alone, but lower the Width to 2.
4. Next, under Move, note the Horizontal offset, Vertical offset, and Zoom factor fields. These can control the
displacement of the buttons by one pixel when clicked. In this example, the currently selected Zoom factor will
expand the button by one pixel along its entire range.
5. When finished, click the Save button at the top of the Edit Mode Workspace to save your changes.
Controlling the Menu
Controlling the menu requires the use of shared variables. These shared variables may be used to exchange information
between SVG files, and may also be used to exchange information through an entire network.
For this exercise, three variables are used for menu control:
Menu selected: This variable affects the file changed when an item is selected.
Menu activated: This variable affects the file changed when an item is activated.
Change menu: This variable controls the state of the menu.
These variables may be found in the Edit Mode Workspace, under Instant Messaging Variable (FIG. 88).
FIG. 87 Color Selection - green
The selected color is also the color used in the E Green.svg arrow button. This can
be selected by using the Eyedropper tool to touch the button and add its color to the
Color Selection wheel.
For more information on shared variables, please refer to Shared Variables on
page 85.
