Re: Overcoming overlapping (obscured) map areas

2008-10-24 Thread viktoras didziulis

Hi Adrian,

if you use blobs of ink and transparent backgrounds, everything should 
work in either environment... When I need bloby maps in Revolution, I 
draw vector drawings and then set the visible of graphic "myMapNo" to 
true or false. Works perfectly. You can not do this for webpages in 
html, but there are other well known vector graphics technologies for 
web out there (flash/flex, SVG, etc...).


Best wishes
Viktoras

The red areas that get highlighted at MouseOver represent letters of 
the alphabet.


In html, MouseOver a large area and the graphic is obscured by smaller 
areas that are on top...

A and C are OK because they are on top of each other.
J is obscured at the bottom tip.
Ideally, when J is highlighted, the whole of the tip should also be red.

Can Rev offer a better solution?
If the MouseOver triggered the display of another layer (instead of 
just another image on the same page) it would work.


Thanks,
Adrian
