## New text item dialog box – MenuBuilder

To access this dialog box: Create a MenuBuilder project. Do one of the following: click Text on the toolbar, or select Insert > Text.

This dialog box lets you create a new text item in MenuBuilder and set its options.

Style: Use the pop-up menu to select the style you want. The listed styles are imported from the selected template. Click Custom to create a new style.

Font: Select the font you want from the pop-up menu. Select size and style options as well.

Text: Enter the text as it should appear in the project.

Link: This text box contains the defined link (to a web address, for example). Select the type of link to activate from the pop-up menu. Select Browse from the pop-up menu to search for other choices. Then enter the appropriate text in the Link box. For example, if you select Web Address, enter the appropriate URL in this text box.

Note: You can create links to almost any type of file. As long as the viewer's computer is able to read the file, you can create a link to it.

Save file with project: When you link to a Captivate SWF file, MenuBuilder automatically creates a link to the related HTM file. Every Captivate SWF file requires an associated HTM file. This file contains information that is necessary for the Captivate SWF file to play correctly. Select this option to save the linked HTM file with the Captivate SWF file. When you export the SWF file, the linked HTM file is also exported.

Advanced Settings: Click to open the Advanced Settings dialog box. This dialog box lets you set various viewing options for the linked file. For example, you can choose whether to open a new window and set window size and position. (This button is active only if you link to a URL or HTM file.)

Tooltip: Enter rollover tooltip text, if you want.

Normal Color: This option refers to the normal color of the text. Click the color box to open the Color dialog box and select a new color.

Hover Color: This option refers to the hover color of the text. This is the color that appears when the user "rolls over" the text. Click the color box to open the Color dialog box and select a new color.
