Adding click boxes in MenuBuilder

Click boxes in MenuBuilder are interactive boxes that do not contain images. You can link click boxes to files just as you can for text and images. You can also make click boxes "float" in front of other elements.

To add a click box:

  1. Create or open the MenuBuilder project.

  2. From the Insert menu, select Clickbox.

  1. In the Link pop-up menu, select the type of link to activate. Click Browse to search for other choices.

  2. Enter the appropriate text in the Link text box. For example, if you select Web Address, enter the appropriate URL.

  3. When you link to a Captivate 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. If you want, click Save file with project to save the linked HTM file with the Captivate SWF file. (When you export the SWF file, the linked HTM file is also exported.)

  4. If you create a link to a URL or HTM file, the Advanced Settings button is active. Click this button to set options for the browser window that contains the link.

  5. In the Tooltip text box, enter rollover tooltip text if you want.

  6. Click Apply to view your changes without closing the dialog box, or click OK to accept changes and close the dialog box.
