category notselected graphics

Got an idea, post it here

category notselected graphics

Postby P3rv3rt B3ar on Sat May 27, 2006 7:40 pm

theres currently possibility to set graphics for selected and/or unselected item in category... i would like there to be also possibility to set graphics for notselected items. Which would ofcourse mean everyother item but not the (un)selected one.

What i would like to do would be set "shades" in front of everyother but selected item, if theres some workaround to do that, i would love to hear about it...

That suggestion makes no sense at all... atleast to me.

It is (like name suggest) meant to be used to set graphics behind category items icon and it doesnt give u any different behavior whether item is selected or not.

+1

I have a movie page designed that would use this feature and the catagory advances one at a time feature, but I am not using that page yet because those two features are non existant. I think that it would be a really cool way to make the selected movie stand out among the shaded unselected movies.

Later,
Brian

U can do cat-advance-one-at-the-time feature with my newly released plugin: xPerT.
