Spyglass Pictures

[jmicht]

I'm working on a flipchart that tells about the products we get from farms. I am using the spyglass tool to reveal the products. I had no problems until I tried to do wheat and pig. For some reason (perhaps the resolution of the pictures?) none of the wheat or pig pictures will work with the spyglass. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi Michelle

Could you pop up a copy of the flipchart as an attachment please, so I can take a look and see what's the problem, cheers...

Kindest regards

David,

I think I attached the flipchart. The pages with the pink background are the ones I'm having trouble with.

Because I am not sure which other pictures you have used - if I briefly explain how it works maybe you will be able to work it out as we can't physically see it for ourselves.:eek:

The spyglass works on a layering basis and so for the spyglass to work it has to "float" over a picture which is on the top layer in order to expose the picture on the bottom.

Therefore ensure your picture through which you want to "see" needs to be brought to the top layer. Go into design mode, Promethean Man and then click on "his Friend" which is second icon in you will now see a red frame around the Prom Man. You are in Design Mode. In Design Mode you can now right click and alter the level/layer of the picture - put it on the top layer.

Hope that helps +wave+

Just a thought...

Is it possible that you took the wheat and pig images out of the resources library or added them to the page AFTER you pulled out the spyglass? If so, they are stacked above the spyglass on the page. Either remove the spyglass and readd it to the page or right click on the spyglass and select "to front" until it works on the wheat and the pig.

Hope that is the answer! :)

Holli,

That's it! I guess I wasn't working in the same sequence on each page. Thanks a BILLION![clap]
