z-index opacity #8

Open coralatlas opened 11 years ago

coralatlas commented 11 years ago

tools to manage the z-index would help ..... and managing opacity of text& images would be awesome ... also manage width and height ... sorry I'm more of a user than a programmer .... so can't implement

great tool!!!

Thanks for the feedback. I'll try to implement your suggestions in next release.

I'm planning to try this tool extensively on my sites .... I'm a business manager/visionary and my partner is the techy guru ... it seems this tool has a lot of potential .... the z-index is needed to manage the order in which slides and BG display after modifications to either ... block out the oldest opacity would allow for the use of various slides for special effects ..... the animations are wonderful .... it seems it dynamically resizes to the container its in .... tho I'm not sure how that works yet ... need to experiment a lot more ....

hope you don't mind the off the cuff ideas ... some I'm sure will appear stupid due to my technical ignorance .... best!

Meanwhile, you can put one object above other, but adding the former before later. The objects added later are placed above the objects added before. This is just a temporary fix though.

To apply opacity on text. You can double click to edit -> select html from tinyMCE buttons -> change the style of text. You can apply the z-index in the same way.

<p><span style="font-size: 30px;opacity:0.8;z-index:100">Your text</span></p>

I agree this is not user friendly and not suitable for ideal users (with no technical background) but it's a nice way until until next version.

Your text

actually that is what I tried to do with slides (not text yet) using html - I'll try again ... and the background is not editable .... if so that would work as well ....

I understand I can work around this ... but my suggestions were also meant to help you make improvements for mon-techys that would make the plug-in more successful I'm actually very familiar with all the tools - I just don't have the patience to use them .... I'm the idea man and my partner does the tools smithing with php perl python js etc etc thanks and keep up the great work - your responses are awesome!
