    Tutorials how to create a Modal window with videoplayer

    Reply Contact

     Hi All,

    I just watch the video Design and Output Flash (SWF) Directly from QuarkXPress 8 on the Learn More page http://8.quark.com/learn_more.html and would very much like to know how the the Modal Window with the videoplayer was created. The presenter had created it earlier and saved into the Library and did not explain any further how it was made.

    I would be very grateful if anyone could give me some instructions how to do this.

     Thanks a lot!

    Hi, Lena,

    as I created the demo files Drew is using at the end I am sure I can tell you ;-)

    It is only boxes (some with transparent blends) and one button. One box is defined as a window object, one as video object.

    Window objects are actually easy to understand: All obejcts that are on top of it (stacking order) and on the same layer are contained in the window (and don't display on the page by default). You need to define an event/action to show the window. And you can use pre-defined elements to move and close the window or create them yourself. 

    In the element from the library Drew drags out the box element you see that looks like the window is actually not the window. The window object is an invisible box (color: none) underneath. Look at this:


    Where are you stuck, where can I help?
