I'd like to know what plans (they're probably Top-Secret) Swishzone has for new components in the near future and beyond?

Tell us what you want and we'll try and make it

Sorry, I don't understand, what are you trying to achieve? Do you want to open a document in a new window, rather than in a new tab?

thanks,

hi,

I would like to see a new component inside swishmax.

a menu with the possibility to select a submenu, with the 'component menu' the submenu do not appear like the example on the image (right from the selected item)

Hi,

Have you considered the menu component?

Your menu structure is defined in the Tree parameter like this:

CODE

News=ShowNews;
Services=
{
  Local=
  {
    Area=area;
    State=state;
  }
  Remote=RemoteServices;
}
Gallery=Gallery;
Support=Support;
AboutUs=15;

The area on the RHS of the = is the name that is sent to the event function.

If you have a much more complex menu, simply create the structure in notepad (or similar) then cut and paste into the parameter field.

If you have a menu with only 1 level of sub menus then you can use the "Perpendicular format"

To see what I mean, drag the menu component onto the stage, set
Direction: Vertical
Style: Perpendicular
Dx: 121
Dy: 20

this will show the sub menu immediately to the right of the main menu item.
It may not be exactly what you want but it is close.

Alternatively use Style: Tree
This will show the sub menus to the right, but it will move the other main menu items down. Generally this is ok as those menu items return when the selection has been mande and the menu is in its non expanded state.
